So I’m supposed to cheer the “Humans of New York” guy for finally calling Donald Trump a racist?
Wow, man. Way to go out on a limb and take a stand, HONY guy.
Excuse me if I don’t stand up and applaud your bravery.

Fucking up
all y’all childish af.. I’m not gonna force you to talk about shit if you don’t want to talk about it. don’t say “text me tomorrow” or “leave me alone” if you don’t really want me to do it cause I will leave your ass alone until you want to talk again. gtfoh with that elementary school shit
Please, PLEASE don’t ever do this to people. It’s no good for you, them or anyone. It’s not wrong because it’s “childish” it is wrong for the following and more:
- When someone accepts a ‘don’t talk to me right now’, they’re actually respecting your boundaries, yes, some of the people who indeed just say okay might ‘not actually care’ about you, but others are actually listening to you saying no, which is THE DECENT THING TO DO. As a test then, this fails entirely, because you can’t discern between the two groups
- Saying one thing expecting people to do the other is manipulative, is the basis of abusive behaviour and can even be ableist as it assumes the other person can pick up on very specific social cues when they might not… and even more, those social cues are TERRIBLY WRONG as explained in my next point
- You are reinforcing the idea that when people (especially girls) say no and set boundaries, they actually mean yes and are extending an invitation. Society as a whole teaches girls that they should play ‘hard to get’, they teach girls to say no when they mean yes, and they teach boys that girls say no when they mean yes - and although that’s not the only reason why girls’ boundaries are not respected, it is a big part of why when a girl says no, men assume they just have to insist. Obviously, this is not the whole extent of rape culture, this is not the cause of it, this is not going to directly cause anyone to become a rapist - but it’s a behaviour that it’s in line with the line of thought that girls’ boundaries should not be respected.
Please, if you care about someone, if you care about yourself, do not ever engage in this behaviour. It’s so so so harmful.
It’s entirely possible to respect someone’s boundaries and indicate that you care about them simultaneously. If someone says they’re having a bad time and wants to talk later you can and, if you’re in a relationship with them, really should express concern for them while still respecting and affirming what they said.
“I’m sorry. I hope you feel better and I’m here if you decide that you want to talk.”
“Bad nights suck. I’ll give you an extra hug in the morning.”
“Oh, babe. Try to get some rest and I’ll check in with you tomorrow, okay?”
The “okay” response given may be respecting boundaries but it’s not demonstrating care. In a romantic relationship with someone, it’s reasonable to expect that they can and will do some minor emotional labor to demonstrate care when their partner/paramour indicates that they’re distressed. If you can’t offer even a single sympathetic sentence to someone who says they’re having a bad time you shouldn’t be pursuing a romance with them.
It’s one thing for Partner B to respect Partner A’s boundary while remaining compassionate. It’s another, more manipulative thing for Partner A to EXPECT Partner B to communicate more than the words “just text me tomorrow” indicate on their face, to say nothing of the consensual grey area already discussed above. If you can’t communicate what you mean to your partner in a way that doesn’t demand mindreading, you shouldn’t be pursuing a romance with them.

I dont play hints, i play honesty, and if honesty isn’t there then i don’t play at all. Period.
Seriously, y’all. This tactic is passive-aggressive af. I know there are people out here who will say that we should read between the lines and interpret the first text message as a call to show affection, acknowledge the original texter’s pain, and offer some sympathy, but that’s getting into some serious “no means yes” territory. Relationships aren’t about mindreading and being a partner doesn’t make that ass psychic. If you tell someone to “just text [you] tomorrow”, make damn sure you’re okay with not hearing a peep from them until tomorrow. Anything else is self-serving at best and manipulative at worst. It’s on both partners to be open and honest to each other, and an integral part of that honesty is saying what the fuck you mean and saying it with clarity, even when you’re going through a rough patch.
Honestly, the bullshit that OP is selling would drive me up a wall.

“We live in a world of radical ignorance, and the marvel is that any kind of truth cuts through the noise,” says Proctor. Even though knowledge is ‘accessible’, it does not mean it is accessed, he warns. “Although for most things this is trivial – like, for example, the boiling point of mercury – but for bigger questions of political and philosophical import, the knowledge people have often comes from faith or tradition, or propaganda, more than anywhere else.” Proctor found that ignorance spreads when firstly, many people do not understand a concept or fact and secondly, when special interest groups – like a commercial firm or a political group – then work hard to create confusion about an issue. In the case of ignorance about tobacco and climate change, a scientifically illiterate society will probably be more susceptible to the tactics used by those wishing to confuse and cloud the truth.

Dope.
I hate when leftists, even ones I like (and even leftists of color/female leftists in this case), treat race and gender (in particular) as epiphenomenal, even though racism, white supremacy, and patriarchy predate capitalism and will certainly outlive it as well. How can you even make the argument that class oppression is necessary for other forms of oppression when really only the reverse is true
Yep. I have lost friends over this one. In America at least, class issues can be boiled down to race, not the other way around.
There’s lots of articles going around about how 2015 was a good year for women in media, with Star Wars, Mad Max, Jessica Jones, etc
Yeah, it was a good year
for WHITE women
I’m tired of trickle-down equality and waiting my turn
Lmao real shit though. Like forgive me if I’m not interested in trying to connect with yet another skinny white woman.
Hmm, yeah.
