Rule number one of dealing with White Allies ™: never make any White Ally ™ feel any form of emotional discomfort related to guilt or responsibility that they, their familial relations, friends, and/or ancestors almost certainly bear for the subjugation of you, your family, friends and/or ancestors.

I mean...do eet. 👹 Cull the weak.

(Tbh tho, that's kinda working in the right wing's favour since they use this exact form of alienation to manipulate a lot of voting-age idiots...)

If this is enough for a white person to feel alienated enough to join the right... Then I don't think they were trustworthy to begin with.

ektir.bsky.social•25 days ago

I don't really disagree, but unfortunately we are all kettled together here.

Also if whoever is reading Prof. Sultana's posts feels personally attacked by it, you're probably the type of white person this article is about. Do some self-reflection

Made this clip a while ago-- Ben Sisko sums up my feelings on this in DS9

Joy is a NIMBY who got down payment assistance from their parents to buy a brownstone in Brooklyn and has a car to drive to her farm in New Paltz on the weekend

Oh goodness Professor. I can’t get behind this degree of cynicism particularly coming from such a learned powerhouse as yourself. Basic human psychology: when someone verbalizes a desired behavior and then actually performs such behavior. Take it. The brain wiring is key.

On what planet is it possible to be anything other than cynical... 👇

spearhafoc.bsky.social•26 days ago

Reductress is a comedy website with fake, satirical stories.

The article is making fun of this type of person.

This is like getting mad at The Onion, people.

merchantsofmisery.bsky.social•25 days ago

That's easy-- the white planet.

Seriously though, people like the person you responded completely miss the mark.

kidmadrid222.bsky.social•26 days ago

Let the girl go to Cabo and mind your own business. I wish I was in Cabo my damn self.

emma-river-roberts.bsky.social•26 days ago

Thank you for your bootlicking service 🫡

kidmadrid222.bsky.social•26 days ago

Nope, it’s called not becoming the people you say you oppose.

merchantsofmisery.bsky.social•25 days ago

Some of you white folks are so comically/dangerously privileged.

ektir.bsky.social•25 days ago

Real talk though, fake allies deserve read to filth. If this weren't a comedy post about fake allies, I'd agree with your sentiment of optimism. I think Prof is just venting via comedy rn. We are in quite absurd circumstances and I stand with her on this post.

She vowed to riot if Roe v Wade was repealed, but went to brunch instead.

djtomdog.bsky.social•26 days ago

I think she changed her profile pic that one time so she’s a real Resistance veteran

lshopes.bsky.social•26 days ago

She also practices "self care" during the resistance.

I hate how accurate this is. The "I just find politics upsetting so I'm going to ignore it all" types.
