it’s completely despicable that when completely fumed and gassed with anger due to another killing of our people, they’re quick to bring tear gas into the situation. But:
where was
the
horrid force of tear gas
when
“enraged” white people
were rioting
and destroying towns over sports?
Are they considered what one would say thugs, too? Or just peaceful protesters rallying over some cock and bull you call baseball? I’ll wait.
Made this for the 2015 Paula F Pfeffer and Cheryl Johnson-Odim Political Cartoon Contest. Won 3rd Place!
There is a big difference ☕️🐸
Yooo lol this is white privilege at its finest..
I hate how male jealousy is framed as endearing and something that women should be appreciative of. Whereas female jealousy is something that should be seen as irrational and something to mock. It’s interesting because at times male jealousy results in abusive behavior and even death.
Y’all quick af to jump on Zendaya, but won’t let Kanye go 😂😂😂
I could go on another rant about misogyny, this time specifically in the black community, but I won’t.
But I just think it’s interesting how quick y’all wanna be to tear apart an 18 year old girl who obviously is making active efforts to uplift black women, but still wanna make excuses for a 37 year old man who has implied on a regular basis these days that he hates black women.
Imma leave y’all alone tho.
…the tea
you ever notice a lot of stuff is considered poor and gross unless its upper middle class (white) people doing it
food trucks in the 90s were the realm of taco trucks and fairground food and were always considered unhygienic and nasty until all these rich city kids started opening food trucks and now they’re “trendy” and “innovative”
riding your bike to work is only considered geofriendly if you can also afford to drive a car but don’t want to, then you’re saving the earth, everyone else isn’t somehow??
recycling old cheap stuff to be used as furniture and wearing really old clothing is a sign of poverty unless you’re doing it a certain way or wearing a certain kind of old clothing
double standards are gross and you should expose them in your life as much as possible
Why did this story get run with these criminals’ school photos, where on the same day, same situation, the article of another group of burglars featured their mug shots?
(source)
Same day.
Same channel.
Same crime.
Same author.
So why weren’t mugshots good enough for the white guys who got arrested? Who already looks guilty before their trial? Which story plants the seed into a potential jury pool that this is a group of good kids versus this is a group of criminals?
