Re-watching Ratched S01E01 released in 2020 for the second time.
Nurse Ratched can't get the role she wants; so she sends gifts daily to her propective boss, until a role opens up.
Is this an example of white privilege?
Is it me or this nobody who gets famous by licking transphobes' a$$ rather than actually winning a competition also managed to make it a display of racism?
Taking a knee has important significance in the Civil Rights Movement. It's a gesture against racism and discrimination.
This white person actually thought she was discriminated and had a right to take a knee.
It's #WhitePrivilege and #CulturalAppropriation all in one.
I guess this is what #WhitePrivilege looks like, or better, whining about the lack of the expected white privilege. This report is not about how cruel #migration policies are in the US but about how horrible it is that these policies are also applied to middle class British white women. In her white privileged POV she easily admitted to perform illegal remunerated work in the US, but got shocked for being treated like an illegal worker from Honduras.

in my opinion, there are 2 key takeaways from 'white fragility' by robin diangelo:
1. racism is not an ‘either / or’ binary but rather a continuum &
2. the challenge is to accept and grapple with this truth.

in 'what white people can do next', emma dabiri unveils race as a social construct—something invented rather than something that has always existed.
i loved her voice throughout the narrative. it isn't just strong or matter-of-fact. it's fierce, it's frustrated, it's hopeful, it's kind. it is all of these things, and it is entirely one of a kind.

@DebC Cloaked in #WhitePrivilege I suppose.
@ErgonWolf I care, friend. I just wish more people did or could even admit what's happening, to themselves.
I'm putting up flyers, stickers, "On Tyranny" in Liitle Free Libraries. All trying to wake my neighbors up to the threat.
I'm organizing on here and in encrypted chats. Especially if things get as bad as we know they can.
I've created threads on White Christian Nationalism, Policing & Prison Profits, Big Social & LGBTQ+ issues on a discussion board frequented by mostly middle class to uppermiddle class cis-het white normies.
@lavaeolus and many others are working diligently to save our research and data from the DOGE purge.
We need people with projectors in high traffic areas showing the normies what's going on because most of them have hid their heads in their #WhitePrivilege.
I'm afraid it's going to take a major economic collapse before they come out of their stupor.
tldr: I care & so do others. We just need more.
I'm trying to focus on creative solutions to wake up the normies to this. The ones that have tuned out politics and done nothing else. Those covering their heads with #WhitePrivilege
Do you think white privilege doesn't exist and that #DEI initiatives are not needed?
FACT: When applying to jobs, white applicants receive 36% more callbacks than equally qualified African-Americans, and 24% more callbacks than Latinos.

Laffy used her #WhitePrivilege to bravely flee to Canada and now, rather than concentrate on fixing her new country's own substantial failings, continues to trade on spamming #USPolitics, including and especially bashing Dems.
White people are responsible for this mess, but they won't TAKE responsability.
It's a mutual block, but she keeps popping up with new accounts to keep her clout so I'm constantly playing whack a mole with her posts.
#MyWhitePrivilege means that I have a duty to analyze #WhitePrivilege & destroy whiteness & the cudgel it's used for.
In case folks are confused, that toot was written in order to make people confront their #WhitePrivilege.
#DonaldTrump and #ElonMusk are your dual Pig Gods, along with #Putin, the Final Bosses of #ManifestDestiny.
Good.
Tear it all down you fucking miserable fucks.
Makes it all the easier to rebuild without giving a single concern about your #WhiteSupremacy or #WhitePrivilege.
The #Revolution is on. Won't happen right away, but your days are numbered. South Africa is an instructive model.

If you're a fellow cis white person, it's time for us to stand the fuck up & take some heat for a change.
