If ever there was a paragraph that described Canadian-Brand Racist Jackassetry, THIS IS VERY IT.

‘When you believe niceness disproves the presence of racism, it’s easy to start believing bigotry is rare, and that the label racist should be applied only to mean-spirited, intentional acts of discrimination. The problem with this framework–besides being a gross misunderstanding of how racism operates in systems and structures enabled by nice people–is that it obligates me to be nice in return, rather than truthful. I am expected to come closer to racists. Be nicer to them. Coddle them.’

It’s so good to see this articulated!

Giethoorn in Netherlands has no roads or any modern transportation at all, only canals. Well, and 176 bridges too. Tourists have to leave their cars outside of the village and travel here by foot or boat by. So you can probably imagine how peaceful it is here.

It’s been said before but we really need to normalise the idea of not having been in a relationship / having sex / dating before your 20’s because it is literallyyyy so young and it absolutely doesn’t make anyone weird for not having had that experience before so I don’t understand why we get off shaming people for something so common

y’know…. conversations about world war ii would be a lot more bearable and constructive if white men found that period rightly horrific rather than pornographic 

[werewolfofsector2814]

We glorify war because it’s the only time we’re allowed to release the beast and not go to jail for it.

You want to see who a man truly is, put him in a battle.

Man is never more himself, than when he has nothing to lose.

Eva Longoria is everything

[dabeatnik]

Yet she can’t even speak Spanish 😂😅😂😅😂

That’s pride alright lmfao

She don’t have to, but don’t talk all that shit if you don’t even learn your own culture #lame

[burgertv]

you were saying @dabeatnik???

[thecrackshiplollipop]

ummm

“When I was growing up, my parents spoke to each other in Spanish, but they didn’t speak to us in Spanish because they were told not to. In school we weren’t allowed to speak it.”

and also???

“… But America is the only country that promotes monolingualism. Here it’s English, English, English. Every other country makes their children learn a second language very early on. So as my political and social activism grew, I was like, ‘I really need to learn Spanish.’ So I did.“ 

idk how many people i’ve known growing up in texas whose parents speak fluent spanish but they don’t speak a lick solely because their parents were afraid or told not to teach their children. it’s unspeakably common and doesn’t in any way shape or form diminish someone’s claim to or pride in their heritage. 

fuck that guy. you go eva. 

[lady-threewhiteleopards]

lack of intergenerational language exchange is one of the leading causes of language death for endangered and indigenous languages because of this culture of shame attached to “lesser” coded languages so frankly if yr mocking people for not speaking their mother tongue without taking the colonial reasons for this into account, you’re an ignorant prick and you can go fuck yourself like

[random-cluster-missile---moved]

Te Reo Maori (the mother tongue of New Zealand) was almost exterminated in the 1950′s-60′s because white people tried to eradicate it. Only a very small and very determined group of Maori activists were able to keep it alive. 

This was so recent my dad remembered it happening.

Now the language is mandatory to learn at Primary School level. Language extermination is awful and a lot of countries suffer/have suffered from it.

Don’t slander Eva Longoria like this

[emis-r-us]

If someone doesn’t speak their native tongue it’s not their fault! Fuck you. I almost lost my Spanish because of dicks like that person.

[fierceawakening]

This is why I don’t speak Greek. If you think this means I’m not proud of my heritage do me a favor and stop eating feta cheese forever.

[mllemusketeer]

This is why my parents and I don’t speak Mandarin. Fuck blaming people for shit like this.

[elasmata]

This is why my dad didn’t learn Italian or Yiddish, and why my brother and I don’t know those languages, either.
