The flaw in America is always racism.

I truly believe that when a majority of White America puts racism and inequality firmly in our past, we will fulfill the promise of America.

That was the precise moment. I still get hot about that.

Right, because paying active duty troops, in harm’s way, is a “show vote”.

Bruce, this is just exhausting.
These demands for inclusion and attention just sound like every man I’ve met who wouldn’t take no for an answer.

Start that making up by respecting Black people‘s privacy. Respecting their space is a great way to show true allyship.

Grumpy Auntie Knows The Way To San Jose @1technodiva.bsky.social · 12h

Right, that’s what you want.

You’re allowed to want what you want. They don’t have to give it to you though just because you want it.

Just like a woman can say no to your company, or a date, or anything else she doesn’t want to participate in, no matter how much you want her to.

Grumpy Auntie Knows The Way To San Jose @1technodiva.bsky.social · 12h

White people need to stop themselves from insisting that Black people do not get a space for themselves.
They don’t owe you their company.
They don’t owe you whatever it is you get from being included in their spaces.
Some things are not for us, just like not everything is for men. Let them alone.

Jeffries: “Republicans acted with great urgency to swear in two right-wing members of congress to do in the American people… What is the delay with respect to Representative-elect. Grijalva? Anything to do with Republicans continuing effort to hide the Epstein files? Inquiring minds want to know.”

Black people cannot be racist.
Look it up.

Blacksky exists because of this sort of crap take.
Why would Black people, Black women, want to be anywhere with you?

Not every place is for you.

Give them peace and stay away.

Show us where Black People have voted to keep other marginalized groups down.

The only group that has 100% stood 10 toes down for us as a majority are the Jews.

There’s a ton of Spanish language channels on the tv and radio (I don’t have a problem with that) but here you are crying over Blacksky?

damn… not here @damnnothere.bsky.social · 1d

but like, black people can be racist against other marginalized racial minorities, or against other black people

it’s “you can’t be racist against white people,” not “only white people can be racist”

They’re kidnapping Black and Brown Folks off American streets in American towns but some folks have decided to take a stand against Blacksky.

All the shit going on in this country and around the world but THIS is what upsets them.

l swear to goodness these people haven’t learned a damn thing🤷🏾‍♀️

Thank you--I appreciate it, yes it's harder than I realized until I got overwhelmed. Took some journal/meditation time this morning, rebalancing. I need to remind myself to pull from the long term strategy bucket, not the short fuse emotional one ☺️ Appreciate you 🥰

The news is worse every hour. I had an unpleasant meltdown last night that showed me I need to make some changes. I’m not coping as well as I need to. I am buried in work. I’m not meditating enough. I need to figure out what my adjustments will be. I love this community. I gotta figure my shit out.

He did. He stopped in case someone knew what plenary authority meant.

I actually don't think that Discount Goebbels censored himself.

One possible explanation is that somewhere deep inside Stephen Miller he still has fragments of a human personality and he recently underwent a trauma that would have floored humans with actual human emotion.

Fighting Against Fascism @fightinginjustice.bsky.social · 1d

Stephen Miller states that Trump has plenary authority, then immediately stops talking as if he’s realized what he just said.

The fact that he knows he's not supposed to be just saying it out loud like that because it's not true and he didn't mean to telegraph their intentions that clearly
