Everyone is gonna do what they do. But I want to be clear what's infuriating. It's two-fold.

Politically, the suggestion that black women should sacrifice their free expression because you think it might hurt a white man's chances somehow is racist and gross.

1/

This is not about the VP pick itself. This is about the *right* of black women to not only *be* in thst conversation, but to *dominate* it.

Yes, you read me right.

This is about white women learning to *submit*.

YES. IT IS. I don't care if you don't like it.

2/

It's madly ironic that I have to scream and shout to get you to learn to shut up and listen, because it's *not ME* I want you to listen to.

Nobody needs a list or is entitled to have one and you all know some names anyway.

You "go, girl!" them when you agree...

3/

But when they tell *you* you're wrong, suddenly you have some things to "explain" to them about elections and politcs and "what's on the line".

As if they don't know! As if they don't *always* have *exponentially* more on the line than us.

4/

And that brings me to the personal part. The part where it just *hurts* that I have white women "friends" on here who are causing the black women I love anxiety and depression and rage and despair. That just fucking pisses me off.

5/

You're letting *the ends justify the means*.

It's racist and vile and it makes you a shitty friend.
