You know, just in case you wanted to set your queue for the next 6 years
“The double agent for the patriarchy is basically just a woman who perhaps unknowingly is still putting the patriarchal narrative out into the world. Is still benefitting off, profiting off and selling a patriarchal narrative to other women. But it’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. You know, just because you look like a woman, we trust you and we think you’re on our side, but you are selling us something that really doesn’t make us feel good. You’re selling us an ideal, a body shape, a problem with our wrinkles, a problem with ageing, a problem with gravity, a problem with any kind of body fat. You’re selling us self-consciousness. The same poison that made you clearly develop some sort of body dysmorphia or facial dysmorphia, you are now pouring back into the world. You’re like recycling hatred. I find that really dangerous and I think it’s unacceptable and I don’t care if you’re a woman. I think constructive criticism is needed for anyone to ever evolve. For our gender to evolve we need some sort of constructive criticism. As long as we do it in a somewhat careful way. (…) So many of the worst things in the world have happened motivated by greed. And I just don’t think that’s an acceptable excuse anymore. How much money do you need? Really how much money do you need? How much money do any of these huge influencers who are worth millions or billions sometimes… why are they still promoting appetite-suppressant lollipops to young girls? And it’s not a fight against obesity. They have young, already slim girls, in their adverts for Flat Tummy company, this company that are absolutely everywhere, and they’re even being advertised in some of the most mainstream magazines, women’s magazines, and they have a billboard in Times Square. The money is built on the blood and tears of young women who believe in them, who follow them, who look up to them like the big sister they never had. It’s so upsetting and it feels like such a betrayal against women.”

My tumblr might just be the only (and last) place I can express my feelings without having anyone I know questioning me about the things I post.
what’s the biggest lesson ya’ll folks learned in 2017?
Everyone serves a purpose in your life and to accept when their season in your life has come to an end.
Every time
Every time I start to truly believe in my abilities, someone or something humbles me to the core and I go back to my mediocre life.
I’m so tired man..

She’s the type of girl that can be so hurt but can still look at you and smile.

Things They Don't Teach You in School
•Lincoln believed white people were the superior race •Gandhi hated black people •The CIA brought illegal drugs into the country •Ronald Reagan was the devil •White people mutated from the Dravidian Albinos and would be nothing without POC
•9/11 was coordinated by the Bush administration •The laws written 15 years ago where pushed and backed by the kkk •Black people explored the world before white people where civilized and whitewashed history
•Christopher Columbus ain’t shit.
*The father of modern gynecology experimented and tortured black women during slavery for his findings. *The government was successfully sued for the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr. *The CIA introduced crack/cocaine into inner-cities across the US *The US had been sterilizing many WoC *In the Tuskegee experiments, the US gave STDs and other diseases, including syphilis to unknowing black men. *Japan was already in line to surrender when we bombed Nagasaki and Hiroshima *The US created the Taliban
Tea sipping shit. I re logged this earlier. But this list got longer
Jesus…
• Native Americans had to register to become American • Black Panthers once watched over the police to prevent unjust arrests and beatings • Native American children were massively murdered when schools got too full • Black people were in zoos • There were Asian concentration camps during WW2
*The World’s largest Great White shark ever recorded in history fed off of slaves thrown over the ships *Gay white plantation owners used to rape the slave men in front of the slave’s wives, children, and friends. They used this method to deter the slaves from revolting or any other unwanted acts. *Plantation owner would make a “deal” with the hardest working male slave to bore 10 children and he will be set free. Creating the stereotype of black men leaving and abandoning their children. *Harriet Tubman’s first husband, a freed man, tried to discourage Harriet’s mission to free as many slaves as she could he threatening to tell her over.
We were taught that about Abe but this is some important info
Male slaves would have their teeth removed - the front two to mark them as slaves if they escaped and the back ones for sale
one of the reasons for landowners to back the revolution was that England had abolished slavery and wanted to bring it across to the colonies - one hundred years before slavery was abolished
the US has been responsible for almost every major conflict of the last one hundred years and interfered in the others almost always for drugs or oil
the great depression was entirely caused by the newly developed aggro farming of the 1920s
the US accidentally sank several ships of Jewish refugees in WW2 including one mostly full of children
•in Africa the white men that were there to “collect” the slaves would give tribes guns. This was in order to have tribes turn against each other so the “weak” tribe members would be sent to America.
•During the Armenian Genocide, families would potentially be spared if the oldest daughter had her face and arms tattooed with blue X’s. These blue X’s signified that the Turkish soldiers could do anything they wanted to her. [I met a woman that this happened to, while she ended up having a husband and children and had some sort of happiness in life. It was hard to look at her. Not because of the X’s but by what happened to her because they were there.]
*Southern black people were convicted of “crimes” (walking by the railroad, looking a certain way) after slavery had been abolished and forced to do hard labor like working in mines for weeks without seeing the sun where they had to drink stagnant water sitting at the bottom of the mines, being whipped and killed if they ran away. A lot of black people were put in jail during the cotton season when men, women, and children were whipped and killed while working in the fields.
*Southern black people were enslaved in this same time period (after slavery was abolished) through imaginary debt that white people claimed that they had and they couldn’t pay it back because the person that they were “indebted” to set all the terms.
*The literally “Constitution” of the Confederacy says that the point of their nation is slavery. Don’t listen to people who say its about states rights.
*A lot of Republicans switched from being Democrats bc of the integrated military, the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts because they didn’t want to vote in the same party as black people. The literal founding of their party is racism.
because this has gotten longer
- Native children were rounded up by white people and put into boarding schools where most of them were brutally beaten and raped repeatedly while also being banned from seeing their parents ever again.
- White men would rape their way into native bloodlines just so they could be “legally entitled” to land, money and livestock that was reserved for natives.
-Native reservations were purposely established in places that were uninhabitable (i.e. poor soil, sparse food & water etc.) This was a way of forcing assimilation.
-Many cultures of PoC recognized more than just 2 genders before white supremacy came in with that basic shit.
-Ghandi also beat his wife
-America has a very long history of wartime sexual violence
Dear God
*Plantation owners often broke up marriages between black couples on purpose by selling the family members just to exercise their power.
*Or they sold off children to separate them from their parents.
So yeah, there’s a cycle of disruption when it comes to black familial destruction.
Martin Luther King Jr survived the gun shot he was suffocated in the hospital
Black families weren’t allowed government assistance if a man lived in the house
FUCK........................................
