Watch as restaurant chains think that's brilliant as they rush to adopt the term for all of their fries. Companies have no low they won't sink to chase trends.

Exactly. As corny as it was, at least that 70s commercial had a better message. Robin DiAngelo and her ilk are pure, undiluted evil.

If that commercial were made these days, the white woman would be given shit for drinking a black beverage. I know that's stupid, but what isn't nowadays?

If that commercial were made these days, the white woman would be making out with the black guy while they (maybe) both hold Coke bottles.

I really wish people like this wouldn't attempt to speak on behalf of everyone in a particular social or cultural group. I get the feeling this person doesn't suffer from mental health issues. Even if they do sincerely care, they're going about it the wrong way. Shit like this just creates more hate and resentment.

It's a Tumblr user, isn't it? So no, they don't have a diagnosed illness, but I'm sure they identify as having a dozen or so.

This (in)famous scene from Boondocks probably sums up what you said perfectly.
Can someone explain why there are two Black History Months? Hell, the alphabet community only get one month dedicated to them. I wonder if, when they realize this fact, this will create tension between the black & LGBTQ+ communities if such didn't already exist.
I do miss when the world was sane. I myself was born in the late 90s, so at least I got to spend a good portion of my childhood back in the "sane era" until the 2010s rolled around and the Socjus plague came into existence (or after 2012 to be exact. Maybe this is what the Mayans predicted).

We need a time machine to bring back those people using that hashtag to 2010s Tumblr.

This NYT article from right after George Floyd is fucking nuts.
"Mitchell Erickson’s fingers began dialing 911 last week before he had a chance to even consider alternatives, when two black teenagers who looked to be 15, at most, cornered him outside his home a block away from the park.
One of the boys pointed a gun at Mr. Erickson’s chest, demanding his car keys.
Flustered, Mr. Erickson handed over a set, but it turned out to be house keys. The teenagers got frustrated and ran off, then stole a different car down the street.
Mr. Erickson said later that he would not cooperate with prosecutors in a case against the boys. After the altercation, he realized that if there was anything he wanted, it was to offer them help. But he still felt it had been right to call the authorities because there was a gun involved.
Two days after an initial conversation, his position had evolved. “Been thinking more about it,” he wrote in a text message. “I regret calling the police. It was my instinct but I wish it hadn’t been. I put those boys in danger of death by calling the cops.”

"The comparisons between Ireland and other colonial possessions were not fanciful. To many British politicians, the situation in Ireland was on a par with the postwar nationalist revolts they faced in Egypt and India. Irish revolutionary leaders themselves supported self-determination as a universal principle. But the unspoken assumption of the French journalist who impressed Hammond was crucial: the Irish merited better treatment than the Berbers fighting French and Spanish colonialists in North Africa because they were white."
"Although the Irish revolutionaries worked to forge links with anti-colonial movements across the world, they were increasingly aware that proclaiming their whiteness was a clever card to play. The Irish representative at the peace conference in Versailles in 1919, Seán T O’Kelly, had been bitterly disappointed at his failure to secure a meeting with President Woodrow Wilson. “It seems,” he told an American journalist, “that the blacks and yellows, all colours and races, may be heard before the conference except the Irish.”"
I'm pretty sure they used their situation as being Irish under British rule and the outbreak of WWI win their own freedom. Nothing related to them being "white". The whole article then rambles and goes off-topic after the first few paragraphs into something completely unrelated to the subject.

I have a friend (or acquaintance, really, but I've known her for 40 years) who is an MP in Canada. We talked about this at one point. She actually believes that being accused of being a slut is worse than being accused of being a rapist. She CANNOT see it any other way. It's appalling. To paraphrase:
"Yeah, the guy may lose his job and all his friends, and have to move to another town, but it's exactly the same for a woman who gets called a slut, but she doesn't have the safety of at least having free meals and a roof over her head the way the guy does if he's convicted. Both of their live's may be destroyed, but at least he gets something out of it."
People with an utter and complete lack of empathy, as well as a sociopathic level of selfishness. Truly appalling.
