If you, with full knowledge of the implications, decide to use hate speech or tell an offensive joke, you are a douche bag and me telling you just how big of a douche bag you are in no way infringes upon your rights as a United States citizen.
1.) Stop being a jerk, it is not painful to be kind to people, I promise.
2.) Stop perverting legislation that you have zero knowledge of in an attempt...
Offensive jokes are the best jokes.

Quit being so damn uptight and politically correct.
Or you could listen when someone is uncomfortable with what you’re saying.
How’s that? If someone says they are offended by something you say/did, it’s your damn job to stop. Who are you to tell someone how they should or shouldn’t feel?

douglass-forgot-the-chitterlings:
because it does nothing but irritate the hell out of me. Not his speeches, mind you, but the way history has set him up against MLK as if they were two men working for different ends.
I hate what history has done to MLK, taking the fire out of him, reducing him to a single speech, a single sappy story of a man who never grew angry (false), never lost his...

Attention white people
cruelyouth:
Yeah, I guess I’m going to have to write this again. Something that has been repeated by PoC and other magrinalized groups on here over and over…
Racism is NOT only about “getting your feelings hurt,” nor is any other oppression.
Personally, I didn’t decide to open up about my thoughts on racism just because my feelings were hurt by some white people one day. There was a HELL of...

cognitivedissonance:
Bill O and Monica Crowley just finished hollering about reverse racism because Barack Obama is encouraging African-American supporters to talk to people at their churches, and if Rick Santorum was to encourage white people to vote and talk to church members, then he’d supposedly be called a bigoted racist for encouraging white people to vote.

The concept of this blog is the subject of debate among many of my fellow white liberals, so allow me to make this perfectly clear one last time. What I see and what I have heard many people of color talk about is the white people who feel the need to speak for people of color, while ignoring what they actually have to say or how they feel. Imagine, if you will, being in a situation where you are...

Anonymous asked: why isnt your blog just focused on colorblind people? why do you limit it to WHITE liberals or just liberals at all? Conservatives are equally as guilty. I think you are being very narrow minded as well as acting like a hypocritical bigot regardless of what you try to preach on here.

Welp! That’s great! Gonna rant now! AS USUAL WHAT ELSE IS NEW
Before he was 8, things were fine and dandy and he’s a happy adorable snotrag!
He isin’t treated any differently and if he is, he’s too young to notice at the time.
He’s 10. He’s talented at creating animation and draws like a pro.
Early primary school; things are fine but he feels a little confused that he’s one...

brienne--of--tarth asked: ooh ooh i think anderson is doing an episode tomorrow, or next week i can't remember, and this lady is gonna be on who actually wants to be paraplegic and has asked several doctors if they're willing to sever her spinal cord or something. she's so infuriating tbh
If anyone cares to further the discussion, feel free to message me on my personal blog and I’ll answer to the best of my ability.
fictionaladyfeels asked: "some people do actually take steps to become disabled" THAT IS SO. FUCKING. DEGRADING AND INSULTING TO PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY DISABLED.
Anonymous asked: As for transableism, some people do actually take steps to become disabled, so it's not that they'll never know what it's like. But what is transfat, aside from a pun about food content and transwomen? Is it a thin person who identifies as overweight? A person with severe dysmorphia who is underweight but feels overweight? What is that?
"Cisdisabled"....

stfuwhiteliberals:
So wait am I like cisfat.
I guess we would be cisfat… u_u I quit!
Can I be trans-patient so I don’t have to fight to urge to strangle people right now?
Anonymous asked: wait what does cisdisabled even mean?
"Cisdisabled"....
Um, what?
theowlintheolivetree:
Trans* fat, trans*ethnic, etc. folks? WHY? You are claiming a title without having to deal with the discrimination that comes with being a person of color, overweight or having a disability and you never have to which is a slap in the face. What compels you to do and say such asinine things? Do us all a favor and learn some respect because the people that must face...

All Asians look like John Cho.
Asians know everything. Seriously, everything. And they can probably fly in secret and they just don’t tell us.
If an Asian person tells you to do something, for the love of god, do it. NEVER cross them.
Black people are all hard. Every one. They’re hard as fuck. You can’t break them with a hammer.
Despite being really hard, black people...

barbreyryswells asked: Last week, Bo Biden, the son of Joe Biden, came to talk at my school. In this talk, he referred to Libya as "France's backyard", affirmed that "drones were the future", and talked about the US intervening in Syria w/o ever mentioning whether or not the US had the RIGHT to interfere in Syria. I wondered why he was given a platform to speak. I have never wanted to tell a...

DONE.

Anonymous asked: I just wanted to say, I identify as a liberal, and I'm white. But I don't claim to know what it's like to be a victim of racism. I can speak about what I've faced being (biologically) a woman, being genderqueer, being pansexual and what I've faced because of those factors. But I would NEVER assume I know what racism is like. So this is me saying I'm sorry there are so...
