DO YOU @nahhtho - Tumblr Blog

Now that the Parasite in chief has had her platinum Jubilee, i thought id share some fun facts about the monarchy in the UK and the Queen in particular. All of this information is easily found online.

-The Queen negotiated clauses in the equality and Diversity Act so she wouldn't have to hire 'coloured or foreign' staff in the palace. that clause is still there today.

-The Queen tried to use The State Poverty Fund to heat Buckingham Palace even with her own personal fortune.

-She lobbied the Scottish Parliament 67 times to ensure that new wildlife protections laws woudn't apply to her estates there.

-The main throne she sits on is worth an estimated £40,000,000,000. Her jewellery Collection worth circa £5,000,000,000 made with 28, 578 diamonds and gemstones, almost all of which were stolen from countries Britain invaded and enslaved...sorry colonised. She also banned the Police from searching her estates for stolen artifacts.

-Her crown estate is one of the largest property owners in the country. It has over 26 Royal residencies, inc 9 palaces that remain mostly empty and property portfolio that generates £300 million per year. Yet she had a family thrown out during the covid eviction ban for a £32 unpaid bill.

Her son is a nonce ( pedophile) that she protected through a £12 million payout.

-The 'free' book that was sent to every school to tell kids how wonderful the queen is cost the taxpayer £12 million.

-She has £420 million personal wealth, which doesn't include that for-mentioned crown estate or her antique furniture or her jewellery collection or all the stolen gold.

-She and her family cost the tax payer £345 million per year in security and other protections.

-The jubilee cost the tax payer £28 million , set aside by the chancellor for the purpose of funding it. Whilst there are currently 14.5 million people living in poverty here in the UK.

Celebrating the incredibly rich, racist and privileged whilst millions of our own citizens are suffering is disgusting.

Some sources:

- Buckingham Palace banned ethnic minorities from office roles, papers reveal (2021) (the article says that there is no longer a ban as of the 1990s, however the clause is still there to allow a ban.)

- Queen asked for poverty grant to heat palaces (2010)

- Revealed: Queen vetted 67 laws before Scottish parliament could pass them (2021) (It's unknown if any of the laws were amended due to her lobbying, but the lawmakers were required to get her approval.)

- Revealed: police barred from searching Queen's estates for looted artefacts (2021)

- Hampton Court mews row: Couple face eviction 'over £32 bill' (2020) (The tenant was using a communal socket to power his electric car.)

- Prince Andrew settles US civil sex assault case with Virginia Giuffre (2022) Prince Andrew pays settlement ending sex assault case (2022) (Guiffre was 17 at the time of the assault. The settlement was initially estimated at 12-14 million, in which case he probably couldn't have afforded it (without the Queen's help?), but some reports say that it was as little as 3 million by the end. IDK I couldn't find anything firm from a reputable source.)

- Queen’s jubilee book for schools to cost £12m (2021)

Navyasarchive is acting like a troll and a bully. Like just admit you were wrong and move on instead of replying with useless memes and trying to force a faux narrative in which you’re the victim of the stupid and angry black woman stripping you of your woc-ness. Like woc can be anti-black too

You really narrowed down how I felt, which is why it actually hurtme so much. Because it seems like she’s trying to paint me as this “angry blackwoman”, who dared to disagree with her. I see her followers ridiculing me, I sawher making a joke out of it. And I guess that’s what really hurts. She’s been puttingwords into my mouth (implied that I said she was white/non-woc and is tellingpeople that I am attacking her because she likes Daenerys—none of which aretrue) and just making me seem overly stupid and sensitive.

I think when a lot of non-black bloggers feel threatened by a blackwomen, then they know they can easily turn the narrative against us, and makeus seem “crazy” or like we can’t get our facts straight. And they know that noone will question them. And I guess that’s what really gets me upset. I agree anon.thanks for putting together what I thought into words. Again I really looked upto her so that was the last thing I thought she’d do. But oh well.

Honestly, I am no longer surprised when social justice bloggers end up invalidating people’s opinions because of they stan the character too much. It happens with every ‘feminist’ i’ve encountered. Suddenly your social justice and ability to listen to what people of color have to say goes out of the window.

Navya being a woman of color doesn’t exempt her from silencing others and being racist. Her reaction to two women of color coming to her proves that, furthermore her need to joke about OP and others who have actual issues with Danyersus character proves that as well.

Many women of color have been harassed because of Dany, and she’s an embodiment of the white savior trope. If you’re going to be a blog that promotes social justice than perhaps act like it when it comes to your favorite characters? Personal blog or not, be respectful to people when you’ve made yourself a platform to combat racism or else you’re just doing nothing but performative social justice, which is unfortunately not surprising lmao.

Navy just showed her true colors which happens eventually to everyone. Unfortunately, it was at the expense of silencing and being willfully ignorant of women of color.

Like I love CAOS and I love the characters in it, and I can’t imagine calling someone a dumbass when they tell me one of my faves is racist or has a racist portrayal, which did happen. I like LotR which is the cornerstone of Imperalistc writing, and I’m not going to act a fool if someone tells me one of my favorite characters embodies racism which they all do.

Like I don’t understand the point of acting shitty to your followers in such a manner? Like idk grow the fuck up? Understand your character has a flaw and don’t be a bitch when someone brings it up to you, especially when your blog deals with racism? The logic is just astounding and reminds me every day why i’m done with these wanna be feminist.

You don't like Gina Rodriguez? If not why??

I don’t know her personally so not liking her is kinda unimportant but the basis of my dislike comes from her slick comments in regards to any success a black person/film receives.

When Black Panther came out she criticized the lack of Latinos in the film (a film set mostly in an uncolonized country in Africa), while doing press with Yara Shahidi she tried to talk over the interviewer when he commended Yara for being an inspiring role model to young black girls and women specifically to say she’s an inspiration to women.

She stated recently that black women get paid better in Hollywood which is false, like completely. The highest paid tv actress right now is Sofia Vegara and she’s on an ensemble cast. She makes more than Kerry Washington did for Scandal despite her being the main character.

And I just generally don’t like the way she ignores Afro-Latinas whenever she makes these stupid comments of hers. You know when she’s talking about Latinas she’s not thinking of Gina Torres or Amara la Negra. She’s thinking of Selma Hayek and Eva Longoria.

She doesn’t have to put down the accomplishments of black people or black media to lift up the accomplishments of Latinos and yet she does, repeatedly.

Its annoying and tiring because it’s just proof that people confuse being visible to being better or successful. Like people comparing Aquaman to Black Panther because Jason Momoa is half Hawaiin or Asians asking black people to cape for Crazy Rich Asians the way they did Black Panther.

People act as if Black people succeeding means other races can’t and it’s ridiculous because black people are where we are now because WE DO THE WORK TO SUPPORT OURSELVES. I’m not saying we can’t show support for others but to expect us to do the work we do for ourselves for them is ridiculous. We can’t speak for a community we’re not a part of.

This was longer than I wanted but at the end of the day fuck Gina Rodriguez and anyone else who expects black people to carry their burdens.

Twitter goes crazy over unlawful arrest of the teen who tried to sell his MacBook

fuzzydunlop07

And so many white people were in her mentions saying “well he shouldn’t have a MacBook” as if this is a fucking Mac vs Windows joke

Fuck the police and fuck the white people who think this is a joke. We can literally be killed over ANYTHING

Police need to be held accountable for their actions.

danielle-mertina

A less extreme version of this happened to me when I was in college. I had a bike and a white student called the police on me for theft. So then I had to explain to police that it was MY bike. So like this, I was accused of theft, but thankfully not held at gunpoint. If you have anything as a black person it’s assumed you stole it.
