How white women use strategic tears to avoid accountability

TheManTheMyth · 08-05-2018 05:45PM #1

"it is the trauma caused by the tactic many white women employ to muster sympathy and avoid accountability, by turning the tables and accusing their accuser."

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/may/08/how-white-women-use-strategic-tears-to-avoid-accountability

I thought we were supposed to "believe all women"? I guess now we should believe all "women of color". Lets go down that rabbit hole..."trans women of colour", "trans lesbian women of color", "trans immigrant lesbian woman of colour".

They are creating a social hierarchy of their own based on a discrimination Olympics.

The left continues on cannibalizing.

It surely cannot escape the observer’s notice that those who lend an ear are most likely to have it torn off. Hence, Silicon Valley endures endless accusations of sexism, yet Wall Street largely skates. Extrapolate as necessary.

The man, the myth, the mythogynist!

Thorry!

Pro-tip: Ignore Guardian Opinion pieces written solely to raise ire and get shared.

Personally, it reads like a piece of drivel by somebody just filling column inches.

Or put it this way “biatches never be happy”

A quick scan of the piece (I don't feel the Guardian deserves to be read as it is little more than a comic) seems to indicate that several "black or brown" women on a "panel" referred to white people as shít, and then got offended when a white person felt that wasn't very fair. A story was then concocted that white women cry to avoid accountability, to hide the real story, which appears to be that a black person used the race card to avoid accountability for being racist.

I was thinking of "Horseshoe Theory". Take "white" out of the title and you got yourself an alt-right/incel blog post.

The Guardian and their obsession with dividing people. Trying to turn people against each other.

JohnnyFlash · 08-05-2018 05:58PM

The Guardian has become a tragic parody of itself.

What a crock.

The writer of course said that the panellist merely has white people and **** in the same sentence.

This illustrates why I would never give money to The Guardian, even if I'd agree with some of their stances.

I noticed that, but given the anti-white racism of the piece, the fact that they were tackled on it at the time by a white member of the audience, and the fact the writer doesn't actually quote what they did say, it's probably safe to say they said white people are shït.

When I shared these tweets on my Facebook page asking brown and black women if this had ever happened to them, I was taken by how deeply this resonated, prompting one Arab woman to share this story:

A WW kept touching my hair. Pulling my curls to watch them bounce back. Rubbing the top. Smelling it. So when I told her to stop and complained to HR and my supervisor, she complained that I wasn’t a people person or team member and I had to leave that position for being ‘threatening’ to a coworker.”

That would make a great L'Oreal ad.

I know. I think the writer was deliberately downplaying the incident.

"Peak Guardian" - there is no such thing! :pac:

They were at it again last week with an article from Yvonne Roberts --under the Observer title, i.e, the sister newspaper -- on April 29th titled 'Millennials are struggling. Is it the fault of the baby boomers?'

When people say feminism is cancer, this is what they mean. It ought to be a wake-up call for many on the left though: it is increasingly a racial ideology. It is not the content of a persons character that the left judges people by, more and more it is the colour of their skin. Hamad is a racist who views her politics through racial identity, shes perfectly at home on the left and is offered a platform by the Guardian. This is the mainstream left today, not a crank or a loon.

Hector Bellend · 08-05-2018 07:23PM

Imagine asking her for a blow job.

Stonedpilot · 08-05-2018 07:31PM

Interestingly the author is a woman. However shes not morbidly obese and is educated. Very telling!.

I'm all for the 'don't forget about us' side of things but this article is just

I often get a chuckle when I get to the bottom, seeing their notice extolling the virtue of their journalism.

This. This.This.

People keep falling for it, she will be loving this thread and extra clicks.

Imagine the British media without The Guardian...

It will take many, many more Guardians to balance the rightwing, oligarchy-controlled decidedly rancid Europhobic media there.

The Guardian website's "loony bin/cuckoo's nest" section, 95 % of it is outrage-stoking rubbish but it must generate lots of page views & advertising revenue & is well worth any damage it does to their reputation.:pac:

I think it's a noisey minority. The Regressive left .

No self respecting classical liberal agrees with such race baiting drivel.

Somebody mentioned the Horseshoe Theory on the previous page. Far Left and Far Right are two sides of the same coin.

Graces7 · 10-05-2018 01:18AM

That would be what was called in my young days as "turning on the waterworks" I think!

cantdecide · 10-05-2018 07:36AM

Intersectionality is a victimhood p*ssing contest which the Guardian openly endorses, apparently.
