Although I agree, the way the social construct of race works is less about how you identify yourself, but how everybody else identifies you.

Man, that new Gambino song is trippy as hell. If that's the direction his new album is taking I think I'm going to like it a lot.
Ahh. Cool. Thanks for letting me know.

Had to get it told plainly to me by my friend after I saw it. I've only seen Ferris twice in my life
Felt disconnected for a long time myself. I'm currently back home for medical procedures and doing the "their house, their rules" thing with my parents meaning mainly attending church. Sunday before the election, our megachurch Baptist pastor, so proud of his diverse flock, all but begged everyone in the congregation to vote Trump because the baby scrapers and homos crept around on the left. My parents are only slightly progressive; save for my mom, an African and a stone cold, Republican voting bigot when it comes to homosexuals and akata (what Nigerians refer to African Americans as), at least thinking that a man who talks openly about sexual assault shouldn't be near a tv in the first place. But a few days after and they're already semi-rationalizing it with the same BS rhetoric that people said and continue to say about how Trump might just be different. Almost burst out of my skin when I heard the words come from their mouths. Even educated Christians will convince themselves to sign on to be led by a monster who goes against all their morals as long as he scares them with the down turn of society sufficiently enough.

Man, I need reassurance that out in the real world it's still ok to call bigotry out. GAF is too far gone.
Trump in office this short and it drained everyone
Might aswell save energy for people irl instead of random bigoted poster #45648
I'm done trying to call people out. I'm exhausted of all humans and the internet.
I'm just going to drink all day and submerse my face into books. I started having spasms and couldn't even open my mouth due to the stress. Had a really bad breakdown in front of my class and club.
Man. This is no good.

The only thing any of us, any of us can do now is save our energy and keep moving. It's all we can do, it's the only thing we can do.
I'm going back to worrying about helping my mom with the bills and Christmas shopping for my family. I can't let this destroy me, I just can't.

Man, I love Chicken Salad Sandwiches even though I hate Mayonnaise. I dunno, it's just too tasty and it's the only thing I can eat with it. But fuck... sometimes they go way too hard on the Mayonnaise.
there should be warning labels for this shit

its always depends on the amount of mayo to make a sandwich. A good sweep of mayo is fine, a bit more is okay. But just throw a glob of it and it ruins the whole thing.
I'm not in the mood to test Mayonnaise in anything else. Usually, if detect it in something, even if I got a KFC burger as a gift, that shit is going straight in the trash.
I guess I'll only eat Mayonnaise if it's hidden so well it may as well not be there.

Yeah, I understand. Out of sight, out mind.
Surprised with the people coming out saying they voted for Trump out of spite because they were called names and racists etc
You knew from the start. You are white and can afford to or a minority/other and are crazy(f u got what's mine) or stupid
Thousands of people voted for a dead monkey no need to make excuses voting for a racist pumpkin

I think they see it as revenge for getting hassled and insulted for defending someone who made a campaign based on hate. But they don't know they are gonna get hurt in the end, just like the rest of us.

Damn. I missed the party last night. That ideology is why we are so fragmented. Just wow. There is no uniform black experience. There is no uniform black outlook. To say otherwise, is to buy into the idea that all black people are the same. Which is impossible. Just wow.
Anyway. I don't fuck with mayonnaise. Potato salad only. That shit ain't for me in any other form

It's just BS justification for them being Trump voters. It makes the whole "why would you vote for Trump" a non-sequitur when they start the conversation with that shit.
Or they're just that stupid and childish that they gave up on their political alignments out of spite. Even though no one has to what their vote is in that booth.

This is what kills me. Just admit your racism and move the fuck on. You knew goddamn well what you were voting for. Just admit you don't mind if minorities have to suffer so you can get ahead.
It's like the people who just think "only" when BLM is brought up and bring some alllives bullshit
No one said the rest don't matter once and no one said you were racist when they said the white racists voting Trump. They know who they are.
Maybe they can only take things in plurals
Late and just mumbling. Night

God bless America indeed. I wonder though, with the riots and stuff going on, does anyone think that these events might spark something just a bit bigger?

I prefer OJ the juice man. At least he'd end the war on drugs
I wish people understood that you can't separate the parts of Trump's campaign to focus on the parts you do. No, I don't believe all of his supporters are bigots. But they weren't willing to stand against bigotry either. Not willing enough to not vote for the dude endorsed by the KKK.
Opposite of love isn't hate; it's indifference.
Anyway, good morning everybody.

I ain't got the answers Slay. I guess they got frustrated and left. it's an older car, a 95, as is. Why even mess with it?
Which ones are you listening to? I think that would honestly help me get through my workday. Some of the people at my job are really starting to piss me off.

I also like The Interracial Jawn, but at the title suggests, it's interracial, black wife, white husband. But the wife is heavily involved in the movement, and the husband is trying hard as hell to be a real ally, so it is interesting.
