So how does a thread about a white man and his racist Twitter rant/firing turn into a rant against black feminists and black women married to white men :dahell:

For me, the lack of response from feminists in general (mainly the white feminists) is something that is worth calling out. Black feminists don't have much power or influence to begin with anyway so it's useless to call them out.

The coli never fails smh:pacspit:

:usure: This is a top feminist issue. Women who get photographed without their consent by men who use the photos for their own "amusement". And not only were feminists not speaking out against this but some women out there actually were trying to lie and say that they would have "smiled" for the camera and wouldn't have gotten violent. There are white women out there who have gotten in similar situations who went as far as destroying the man's camera, attacking the man, and even had their boyfriends beat up the said photographer. That Hollaback website puts guys like Anthony on blast. But instead people want to portray Anthony as the victim. The fact that brothas like me (who is the farthest thing from a feminist) are speaking up more for this woman than feminists are is something worth addressing.

some of you drastically overestimate the influence of (especially ones of color) feminists in general

Just be happy that any tirade from you remains anonymous, even if its just a casual shot at feminists

I realize how powerful that movement is and how backlash is needed, but there are more important issues. Preventing unnecessary deaths being no1

White feminists made Rush Limbaugh back down and apologize. The same Rush Limbaugh who shyts on black people as a whole on a daily basis with next to no repercussions. Rush was losing sponsors when he called that white female college student a "slut". They have a lot of influence. Look at Gloria Allred's career. Look at the success of shows like Orange Is The New Black and the TV show Girls. Feminists are one of the most powerful groups in this country. Black feminists are another story though. :mjpls:

Rush's sponsorship losses were more of a mix of female backlash (including many non-feminists) in general though
I still think some of y'all give them way too much thought when there are still other much more sinister groups we need to focus on

A lot of those false rape accusations that get thrown at black men that lead to unjustified jail time were feminist backed. The ideology that convinced a generation of black women that black men were not worth respecting and that a father is optional is from feminism. And now when black women are experiencing street harassment from white men, all of a sudden these same feminists won't say anything. Feminism is a spinoff of white supremacy so they need to be called out as well.

black men have been disappropriate targets of false rape allegations out the woodwork for hundreds of years do the scary black male image, the high rates of single parent homes in our community are a result of the rampant job discrimination in America directed against Black males, can't really disagree on the next point, and though like many movements on the American left feminism does suffer badly at times from blatant White biases even towards groups they are sympathetic to.

:whoa:
be careful when you use the prioritizing argument, we all could walk and chew gum at the same time. No need to focus solely on one issue at a time

There are a few interesting observations that could be made from this controversy by also focusing on the shrapnel, and not just the cause of the explosion. The lack of feminist support for the woman in this case is funny and telling
