I love how folk (mostly White) on the left want whole ass gigantic mountains, the heavens & the 🌍 to be moved to expedite the prosecution of Trump’s cabal but when we asked y’all to police your White peeps away from voting for him in the 1st place, y’all couldn’t be bothered. 😒
We’ve literally been warning y’all that this shit was a Klan kleptocracy disaster just waiting to happen for not just years or decades, but CENTURIES. Y’all’s sense of urgency & justice is still hampered by your myopic privilege so you fail to realize that we’re already TOO LATE.
Millions are dead from COVID worldwide and thousands are dying every damn day in this Russia/Ukraine war (that was explicitly promised & ordained as a consequence of Trump in the WH), so y’all still need to disabuse yourselves of the notion that damage control is a glamorous job.
Also the other notion Y’ALL need to be disabused of is the one that hits a brick wall at “police your White peeps” b/c Fox & the GOP have rendered them brain dead. At what point are y’all gonna use your White power to take down the PURVEYORS of the propaganda that’s killing them? Image
A lot of y’all are so used to evading consequences in your own lives (as a result of your own White/White adjacent privilege) that you still refuse to wrap your mind around the reality that THESE are the CONSEQUENCES of your APATHY & outright REFUSAL to be intersectional in ‘16. ImageImage
Bottom line is *we meant what we said* when we told Y’ALL ALL of this shit was gonna be epically fucked up to hell & back but NO. You didn’t listen, you didn’t prepare, you didn’t vote & you didn’t do a damn thing to fix ANY of it. We still don’t trust you & WON’T depend on you.
Precisely 🎯 BUT it’s that latter part that has folk melting down in my mentions on a regular basis. People are well versed/highly skilled at mourning, booing, Monday-morning-quarterbacking & pointing fingers BUT what they DON’T wanna do is take responsibility for THEIR INACTION.
I’m glad you showed up to project your privilege onto me b/c it proves my point. Marginalized voters aka the base of the Democratic Party aren’t #onhere pumping out failed attempts to tweet Garland, Pelosi, Schumer & Biden into giving us POWER. We actually #VOTE on election day.
Now that enough time has passed for the hit dogs to show up and holler in this thread 😒, I’d also like to add how striking it is that 1) an ample number have shamelessly told on themselves despite it being 2022, The Year of our Queen & reliable ally Betty White and 2) see 1. Image
But seriously though, 3) these people swore up & down they had the sauce for a full blown revolution but when you scroll their rebuttals it’s clear their failures are rooted in the narcissism of the individual/interpersonal ego being prioritized ahead of the power of a COALITION. Image
IOW I mostly see White people (who mostly do seem to mean very well btw) lamenting their own personal “failure” to deprogram their Trumper kin as if that’s what we even mean when we say *Whiteness* isn’t adequately policed. Y’all aren’t fully grasping the ubiquity of SYSTEMS yet. ImageImageImageImage
Y’all think you’re being admonished for not being able to unbrainwash folk we ALREADY KNOW are incapable of laying down their armor of White supremacy/oligarchy/theocracy/patriarchy. The allyship we’re seeking is your INTERSECTIONAL commitment to the civil/human rights coalition.
Instead of falling your ass in line for the shared goals of POWER, FORWARD PROGRESS, #Hope & #Change, y’all fall in LOVE with grifter charlatans who promise the world and unicorns to you but never fucking deliver b/c they can’t build an intersectional coalition big enough to WIN. Image
Now what kinda sense does that make? #Malarkey #GTFOH 💨
They’d rather call us racist for calling out the White American majority for voting in lockstep for every last ounce of death, dishonor, destruction, disgrace, disregard, democide and DEPLORABLE that Trump/the MSM/GOP have dished out than take responsibility for enabling it ALL.
Leave it to the narcissistic nihilists who keep creating all these damn messes to have a problem with the speed at which said messes get cleaned up by OTHER folk. 😒 What, pray tell, makes y’all’s end of the horse shoe any different than the MAGAts who desecrated the US capitol? ImageImageImageImage
Mind you these are the same folk who tried to convince us that neither Joe nor Kamala had a snowball’s chance in hell of ascending to the WH b/c the WWC’s “economic anxiety” was insurmountable & the only viable electoral cure was prioritizing Bernie/Bros ahead of civil rights. 🙄
We’ve been through way too damn much since 2015 for us to still keep falling for the *same* disinformation, manipulation, intimidation and overall FUCKERY over and fucking over again. The stakes are still too high and too many people are still on the LOUD & WRONG battlefield. 🗣
For those of you who’ve read this *fair* warning & become uncomfortable, I hope you ultimately find impetus in the fact that it’s also a *threat* b/c we’re ALREADY experiencing the 1st few levels of hell y’all opened up when you refused to heed our calls in ‘16. #VOTE wisely. ImageImage
THIS👇🏾 right here is the crux of the dichotomy and why this whole thread is acutely evergreen. I’m wondering why non-fascist White America continues to be fresh out of ideas and asking *other* folk to intervene but when it’s us with the cultural disparity it’s OUR PROBLEM to fix.
Actually it’s NO wonder at all b/c when your puritanical lefty priorities prevent you from building a coalition, you’re cordoned off in a maze of futility b/c you don’t have the 💵, ads or crossover *votes* you need to WIN. You won’t even let White supremacy TRY to disarm itself. ImageImageImageImage
IOW, I’m old enough to remember when Liz (read Bernie by extension) thought she could easily book a ticket to the WH by giving Bloomberg the Bain Capital treatment circa PBO v. Mitt ‘12 but it flopped for her b/c Black voters KNEW we needed his ad/GOTV 💵 AND to NOT vote for him.
All of the above coalition building/election winning concepts are completely foreign to privileged people b/c they’re deluded in bootstraps rugged individualism and refuse to buy into the intersectional benefits of a multicultural coalition. They blow up the tent with their ego.
They also blow up the tent w/their terminal deficiency of discernment. They don’t know what effective, reliable allyship is so they routinely idolize like-minded ideologues who *also* aren’t effective or reliable when it comes to civil/human rights & intersectionality. THEY flee. ImageImageImageImage
Not only do they flee like thieves in the dead of night, they vilify and disown any & every effort to use both light, gray and dark money to beat Citizens United and the GOP at their OWN game. They shoot every last cause they purport to champion in the foot by DIVESTING from it. ImageImageImageImage
Many of y’all are failing at adequately policing the Whiteness within your social ranks not b/c you refuse to discuss politics with them but b/c you’ve allowed them (and yourself) to believe that classism/capitalism are bigger barriers to egalitarianism than racism & sexism are.
Long story short, all of the above is how we’ve arrived at an as of yet unmitigated, fascist, treasonous Constitutional crisis for the 2nd time in our nation’s history since 1861; mainstream White America’s insistence upon using euphemisms & purity to evade consequences & change. ImageImageImageImage
The timeouts y’all were raised on didn’t teach you any pain, lessons or consequences, so the sense of urgency you should be concerned with rn is rapidly rehabilitating yourself in time for Election Day. It could very well be our last so stop just booing and make sure you #VOTE.

Let me address this now (again) b/c folk keep asking: NO I’M STILL NOT opening an account on any other social media platform. Y’all are asking this of a Black, native Texan woman whose entire family tree is Black native Texan. *I don’t flee for the Confederacy’s benefit.*
Y’all can feel free to do what sits right in your spirit but I’m not scared of a damn tweet. I walk around IRL as a Black woman knowing full well that my gracefully unbothered existence in spaces racists don’t want me in is an act of civil disobedience, protest & radicalism.
Not only that but what point is even being proven right now other than a real time illustration of how easy and uncomplicated it was (still is) for certain folk to flee to bluer, “safer” territory for the Confederacy’s benefit while the space they fled becomes more Confederate?

1 more blast from the past since folk still can’t do math or handle the truth. Ds are still contending with #WeakAssUnreliableAllies who “swing” in & out of the ⛺️ on a whim based on White/White adjacent grievance every 2-4 yrs and make maintaining a winning coalition impossible.
Matter of fact, miss me with the feigned confusion altogether b/c it’s BEEN plain as fucking day that culture wars are all the GOP has left and that WW (specifically) were/are susceptible to said wars to the extent that their bigotry is superseding their woman/motherhood.

After years of xenophobic klan sentiment on the GOP campaign trail, the El Paso shooter drove ~10 hrs to gun down Hispanic Texans on White supremacy/nationalism’s behalf. The anti-Haitian rhetoric propagated by Trump/Vance/MAGA isn’t just a hateful lie, it’s stochastic terrorism.

Nobody gets to pretend the writing hasn’t been on the wall since Birtherism and Trump’s promise to build a wall but make Mexico pay for it. They tell us to “remember the Alamo” but expect us to forget El Paso, Buffalo, Pittsburgh (Tree of Life) and the Atlanta spa shootings.

I don’t wanna hear shit else about Trump or the GOP “toning down their rhetoric” when the volume of the klan rally’s been at 💯 since 9/11 which is technically only a slight uptick from what they’ve been doing to Indigenous, Black and Brown people on American soil for CENTURIES.

If JD doesn’t know any professional women who are happily married moms, he should just say that. 🙄 I had my 1st son 6 weeks before my Masters graduation/3 months before residency. My 2nd son was born 2 weeks before residency graduation. I prioritize EVERYTHING altogether, MFer!

This reminds me of 1 of my fave scenes in 1 of my fave movies, ‘Baby Boom’, when J.C. (Diane) finally accepts motherhood/a career change and tells her male colleagues, “I don’t want it all.” We’ve learned how to juggle kids & work without being miserable. vice.com/en/article/did…
Which is also why chauvinistic jerks like JD have so much shit to talk about us. They’re mad that their ploy to make motherhood & marriage incompatible with a profession has failed miserably and that they still have to compete and share power with us in the workforce and at home.

I recently saw a patient whom I’ve been seeing for almost 6 months and when I asked how he’s been doing since our last visit 6 weeks ago, among a laundry list of stressors, he said “there’s gonna be a civil war and I’m gonna end up dead.” 🥴🫣
It was telling b/c he’d never uttered that type of rhetoric with me before & the only thing that changed between visits was Biden passing the torch to Kamala. He mentioned it in passing then quickly moved onto something else but he said it like civil war was suddenly inevitable.
The other thing is I don’t know his political alignment and we’ve never discussed it but when White men of a certain age and geography say shit like that all I hear is nostalgia for the Confederacy. 🤷🏾‍♀️ They’re reflexively threatening civil war in anticipation of electoral defeat.
