White People Don't Even Know What Friendship Means


I just peeked at the #solidarityisforwhitewomen Twitter feed and got hit between the eyes with this:
"#solidarityisforwhitewomen means being able to fight sexism and violence against women without demonizing the men in your community."

Ooooh, Ann Althouse and de white lady feminists ain't gonna like that. They're talking about Rappers and other "losers". And it goes against that rock solid Reynolds Law, too!


Oh, what's we gon' do? What is we gon' do?


I guess, point out how silly Reynolds sounds - here's a theory he just posited, by way of Ed Driscoll:
“I suspect that there is another reason why the press is so fixated on race these days. The left’s agenda is in tatters. Obamacare has crashed on takeoff, after five years of Democratic policies the economy is in the doldrums and we are nearly $17 trillion in debt, and the Obama administration’s foreign policy is is disarray. The Democratic Party, as represented by the press, desperately needs sideshows to 1) rally the party’s faithful, and 2) distract the rest of us from the failures of the liberal agenda. Thus, I don’t think it is a coincidence that liberals are doing their best to portray the summer of 2013 as more or less a replay of 1967. The silliness of the attempt is a measure of how out of ammo liberals are these days.”

Yeah, that's it. It's definitely not that, during a difficult race trial, conservatives showed their traditional lack of empathy for the situation - even causing some of my conservative online friends to virtually back me, as a Zimmerman supporter, into a corner to choose sides - when I'm the guy who's been begging everyone to shut-the-fuck-up about race, and focus on our shared heritage, for years. Under those circumstances, who would you choose:


Blacks, understandably freaking out over another dead kid - or my "friends" making monkey noises?

  1. So I take it that the only people worthy enough of marriage now are folks making over 50K a year? Because somehow...purity?

    The same people who have pretty much been the standard bearers for feminism and the free love lifestyle? (which admittedly, everybody else was stupid to follow, but still).

    The same people who only got het up with the Zimmerman thing because of the "white" in front of hispanic? (which was bogus, but then the whole thing really was -- and the right jumped right into it same as the left...which caused all manner of tension that affected folks they will never come in contact with and don't really care if they mess up those lives at all)

    What we going to do? We're going to tell them to take a flying fuck that's what -- should have done it a long time ago, but better late than never.
    If they want to spend their lives doing yoga and paying for overpriced nonsense at Whole Foods, bragging about their fancy PC cars that cost double the cost of my house, fine, but no more listening to them (they can have their echo chamber, but no more relevancy given)...they've gone and proven to be unreliable flakes.

    *and I not only want that goddamn rainbow back, I want the goalposts too!

    **that thing is freaking popcorn worthy, isn't it? I'd love to be a fly on a wall in some places where this gets received.

  2. Oh, and after giving it some thought:

    I can understand the freaking out over another dead kid -- dead kids is not good.
    However, if I was really truly going to be sympathetic to a freak out, I think I'd be more for freaking out over these guys:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_James_Byrd,_Jr.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murders_of_Channon_Christian_and_Christopher_Newsom

    Granted, not kids, so maybe it lacks some poignancy there, but perhaps a little higher on the innocent victims scale -- they didn't deserve what they got, and if we're going to be upset over deaths (which happen everyday), how about the deaths of people like that?

    **and that twitter is just starting to get boring and redundant, as all cat fights do...yawn; the woman you quoted was one of the more shining lights; I kinda almost feel sorry for her -- a voice in the deranged sea of estrogen, oh well...get out of the water sweetheart! save yourself!
