me: so what's ur opinion on mac confessions
date: mac confessions is an outlet for privileged people to condescend to and invalidate oppressed people
me: *shoves breadsticks into purse* i like u already, let's leave early & engage in healthy discourse about social issues.
Go ahead and post the SWN "next steps" page again. It doesn't say anything particularly meaningful. What does a curriculum review entail? What is an acceptable number of white academics in the curriculum for a given class? I'd like examples of what you really think change would look like. Critical dialogue is not change.
Also, people didn't necessarily disagree with the protest's goals, but they did find it a little absurd that you assumed people should agree with your methods or be treated as racist reactionary heathens if they didn't.
The pure pleasure of dewy morning - feet on the grass and my pajamas on me.
All the stop white noise organizers promising they have "plans" for "real change" starting to remind me of Trump promising he's got "great plans". Like, I visited your website and read the next steps page. All it says I'd that you hope it will be an annual thing. "Further iterations of this action will allow dialogue..." Does anybody on either side think this I'd a legit plan? Just the same thing again next year? Either put out a real plan or STFU about how "you've got the wrong idea, if only you would read our website you would understand." The website is nearly devoid of content. Your hearts are in the right place but your actions are so misguided.
I was quietly celebrating Erdogan's triumph this whole week. Gotta love how the Western media is portraying him as some kind of pariah while letting dictators off the hook all across the world because they are "secular" July 15th has shown that Turkey must throw away the shackles of westernization and embrace its roots! Long Live Erdogan! Long Live AKP!!
Mac confessions is like a combination callout board and forum for reactionary trolls? Is there a word for how being anonymous/responding to the anonymous turns everyone into odious sacks of shit?
I think Sweaty should follow through with a sister system where everyone actually gets to fight each other irl. This is really the pinnacle of the internet, maybe of human experience.
