and these are the assholes yelling at minorities for being hesitant for uniting with racist white people

leftism is when u say n word

For my viewing experience, I didn't feel as though there was friction between the movie being a genre film and a racial critique film because i think what the director is trying to get at is that "Get Out" is a horror genre movie, like any other horror genre movie. the difference is that the horrible scary thing just happens to be white people/ racism rather than robots, aliens or godzilla, an interesting subversion of how white horror has historically had monsters who are poc/ marginalized people --particularly disabled people or monsters coded as being poc/marginalized

absolutely not

-a queer black woman

people hate astrology because it isnt fucking real and its annoying when people try to pretend like it is, and even worse when they bring it up unprompted to everyone else. why would i, a black queer woman who has been beholden my entire life to my identities, seek to box myself into yet another determinative identity aka my StAR sIgN? if anything in my personal experience astrology seems to be yet another thing white queers and white women use to prove that they have any type of spice, something that usually fits right in with their life long quest to abstract themselves from the fact that they are just as white and just as rich

karen u are not a libra you are a gentrifier and your black neighbors would really wish youd stfu

yall wanna examine every single little star and what it means like its a 7th grade sleepover at the friend's house who dont got an xbox, but dont even wanna examine racism and what your actually doing to cause it. if you want a new agey movement examining our personal relationships with each other, and to the greater world, fine. but do fucking racism first.

i saw white tenderqueers after george floyd's murder talk about how it makes sense that he'd spark a whole new movement because he's a libra and libra's have the scales of justice in their sign. like....yall need to stop (if you dont believe simply type into twitter "george floyd libra" and youll see)

stop using my identities to excuse ur brain worms.

as far as im concerned theres nothing lana del rey isnt doing that these astrology white tumblr girls arent

maybe i am hyper sensitive and good at listening to others because im a pisces or maybe i just grew up black and extremely poor and learned that i have to be hyper intune with what people are saying in order to give myself a head start on potentially needing to protect myself. maybe the stars and the universe, and the implied sensicle moral arc of the world that somehow allows slavery and rape to happen (but definitely is right about brad liking you), will have something helpful to say about this.

wasnt it famous feminist philosopher marlyn frye who said that the biggest mistake men make (and what seperates them from women) if that they believe the universe is knowable? i guess now we know astrology and girlboss feminism go hand in hand

also like i dont think those defending ella are saying THIS exactly: but this whole "small white rich 21 year old is a CHILD" thing is kinda grating given a 9 year old girl of color got cuffed in rochester and pepper sprayed by cops like that "theyre a kid" excuse only goes one way
