I wrote a book about this some years ago.... #Whitopia

Paying taxes in the hustle economy: "Many dread filing taxes not just b/c it’s a byzantine chore; it feels like an indictment during these shifting, uncertain times." Fascinating essay by @IAmRichBenjamin via @latimes#TaxDay https://t.co/JSgij4L4kj
Rich Benjamin is not only one of my favorite journalists, but favorite people in the world. This sobering synopsis about the link between inequality and cheating is a must read and must share.
Back in 2014, I decided never again to appear on @FoxNews Its raging sexism, racism, & general idiocy had become too unbearable, too extra. At this point, any moderate or progressive appearing on that network is a self-loathing flame, not a light bulb. #FireTuckerCarlson

That @Esquire cover. @JayFielden: "feminazis" "black people" "fags"--white boys have been complaining about “change” for a good 25 yrs now-- reread the Columbine diaries. That mania to understand “the American Boy” is caught up in your *own* white-picket-fence nostalgia
"When the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. dreamed that all people be judged by the content of their character, he didn’t mean for his words to be repurposed as horse blinders to inequality." Visiting journalist @IAmRichBenjamin in @latimes: https://t.co/jMfpdp8nsV
They weren’t on a field trip to see the Smithsonian. They’re teenage boys bussed in to demand adult women have no reproductive rights and shouting “Build that Wall”—to an indigenous Vet. @GOP culpable in all this. #MLKDay

Visiting journalist @IAmRichBenjamin in @latimes: "Nowhere is the power of language so stealthy and destructive as the world of high finance." https://t.co/KRGkPoz3Gn
Trump & King “belong to the same subset of white nationalists who are afraid of how the country is changing.” @jorgeramosnews & @tripgabriel have great @NyTimes articles on @GOP as #WHITOPIA
