File this under “I know someone probably already said it but I’m sayin’ it”… It’s funny to me that Young Thug has been arrested and brought up on charges but they still can’t seem to do the same with the KKK and the multitude of white supremecist groups.

Twitter just let me know that I’m only following @EugeneLeeYang and not the @tryguys 😬 I’m sure they noticed 😂
Does anyone want to talk about how the current character assassination of Will Smith by other Black men is more about what they stand to lose than how they actually feel about what he did?

This is what happens when the world treats Black men like a monolith… a racist and oppressive system working as it was designed.

It’s interesting but not surprising to see how quickly Will & Chris have been dehumanized using the language of those who stole, enslaved and transported humans across a whole entire ocean to build a world these two men were never supposed to have access to.
Let’s just say I’m not surprised by how many ⚪️ comedians are now centering their safety in this here conversation that isn’t even about them. I also don’t have the energy to be disappointed. Y’all are a mess!!

Aye, white people:
When you discovered the phrase “fuck around and found out” six months ago and ran it into the ground…
What the hell did you think the “find out” part meant?

So glad I work for myself and my office is in my home. No white folks at work asking me what they thought about last night. I wanna cry from joy.
The reason why Will’s slap is under review and Chris’ joke isn’t is because they don’t actually want to make Hollywood safe for Black women, Black femmes, and Black gender non-conforming people. They want to continue to uphold the ⚪️ values that make the Oscars what it is.

Y’all let all these little ableist jokes slide before the pandemic and now a million people are dead.
You fuckers left us to die and expect us to laugh along with you at our expense.
Does anyone want to talk about how “Good Hair” tipped off large corporations (read; ⚪️ people) to how much money Black women spend on their hair which led to the hyper commodification of Black hair care brands, weaves, hair extensions etc?!?

Nah, cause if you all were real with yourselves, if ableism were actually confronted, we wouldn’t be still be in this pandemic.
I applaud Jada for not laughing through that joke. I’m invoking this energy every time someone says something racist/misogynistic/ableist/capitalist in my whole face and expects me to be nice about it. “Fuck around and find out” comes in all forms, y’all!!
Speaking from the experience of having my head shaved down to the skin at various times of my life, it’s never been funny to be referred to as “GI Jane”. Regardless of the context, “GI Jane” jokes are always meant to be degrading to women/femmes with bald heads. #ISaidWhatISaid
