All of these links went to promotion of this story earlier today. All these links are dead now — that's how thoroughly they've scrubbed this.

We're all supposed to be 100% in tune with white men's feelings. We're supposed to care about them at the expense of our own. We are supposed to live in fear of them getting upset. Treating their feelings as grenades that can go off at any time. They on the other hand do not need to care about ours.
