    “Let us be exact about what white privilege actually is in a counter-terrorism state. It is not a life without pain. It is not wealth, & it is not comfort.

    It is something much more specific and much more useful: it is the presumption of innocence surviving contact with the police. It is the ability to be interpreted outside of a pathology that exists in your skin, belief & behaviours.

    When a white pensioner is carried away from Parliament Square with a cardboard sign, the country reads the scene as an image of the state's absurdity. When a Muslim is arrested under the same section, the country reads the scene as an image of the #Muslim

  13. If you're white and male, and a meme comes up that makes you mad, why is that? If you're an ALLY, why aren't you talking to your minority friends about the issue? If your first instinct is to go, "Not all men", or "not all white people" replying to the meme, take a step back and actually talk to the minority friend you say you have.

  18. White folks, with a lot of societal privileges: "I can't afford to protest. I might lose my job."

    Non-white folks, without much societal privileges: "I can't afford to not fight. I might die "

  23. #Teen responsible for last wk's #SanDiego #Mosque shooting had previously been involuntarily hospitalized, was on radar of local authorities for over a year due to known online radicalization to nihilist #RWNJ , #massshooter idolization & #Nazi views.

    The youth was also featured in an article on a conservative opinion outlet detailing his objection as a white student complaining about how he was being forced to take a mandatory class that included exploration of the harm's of #WhitePrivilege . The article has since been deleted but exists here on the #InternetArchive web.archive.org/web/2025062807

    #Extremist behavior and complaints from school officials had led #ChulaVista police to seize dozens of his family's guns after a " gun-violence restraining order" was placed re: mentally unstable #CalebVazquez a year before this apparently preventable attack...

    Vazquez had told school & psychiatric professionals he idolized Adolf Hitler and was gathering information about him and mass shooters on the “dark web.”

    According to the police, a restraining order was placed on his father's weapons stockpile , after officers said Vazquez, spoke of a “day of retribution” and “expressed fascination” with #massshooters who conducted bloodbath incurring gun attacks in Isla Vista; El Paso; Norway and elsewhere. 

    His family filed sucessfully to get the guns confiscation rescinded within weeks, and has since issued a statement through #lawyers in which they purport to have empathy for their child's victims, despite self righteously supplying the arms that killed all of them....

    “Coming from a diverse family that not only includes immigrants but #Muslims as well, we always taught the importance of acceptance, #compassion, and love for one another. We are proud of the different backgrounds, cultures, ethnicities, and religions within our family and community,” his family issued statement said.
