DEL INSULTO RACISTA A LA VICTIMIZACIÓN POR CONDICIÓN DE GÉNERO: LA INSTRUMENTALIZACIÓN DEL FEMINISMO.
Hay algo que me incomoda profundamente de la confrontación entre Kylian Mbbapé y la diputada paraguaya Celeste Amarilla.
Como mujer afrodescendiente que hace política, sé lo que significa que intenten reducirte por el color de tu piel, por tu cabello, por tu cuerpo o por tu voz. He vivido el racismo, el machismo y la violencia política. Sé lo que duele y sé el costo que tiene enfrentarlos.
Precisamente por eso no puedo guardar silencio cuando una mujer utiliza expresiones racistas y, frente a las críticas, intenta refugiarse exclusivamente en su condición de mujer.
No. No todo cuestionamiento a una mujer constituye violencia política de género. Y decirlo no debilita al feminismo; por el contrario, lo fortalece.
Los derechos que tantas mujeres conquistaron no pueden convertirse en un escudo para evitar la responsabilidad cuando se vulnera la dignidad de otra persona. La lucha feminista nació para ampliar derechos, no para justificar privilegios ni para encubrir discursos de odio.
La investigadora Elizabeth Corredor advierte sobre los usos estratégicos de los derechos de las mujeres: cuando el lenguaje de la igualdad se utiliza para fines distintos a la protección de los derechos, termina vaciando de contenido las luchas que tantas mujeres han sostenido durante décadas.
Como mujer negra, me niego a aceptar que se normalice el racismo. Como feminista, también me niego a que nuestra causa sea utilizada de manera oportunista para desviar la atención de un acto discriminatorio.
La coherencia no puede depender de quién agrede. Si condenamos el machismo, debemos condenar el racismo con la misma convicción. Si exigimos respeto para las mujeres, también debemos exigir respeto para las personas negras. Ninguna lucha por la igualdad puede construirse sobre la discriminación de otra.
Yo no quiero un feminismo que seleccione a quién defender. Quiero un feminismo que sea éticamente coherente, profundamente antirracista y comprometido con la dignidad humana.
Porque cuando se instrumentaliza una causa tan legítima para justificar el odio, perdemos todas.
I love a bottle-can of water. I have tried different brands. But with Drip, the bottle leaked. Even if Drip were to fix that design flaw, I've been put off because I do not like having a wet bag. (I didn't know it was Big Zuu's until I'd already bought it)

I don't think I have seen so many slip-ups missed by the Faithfuls. Very frustrating to watch. The manipulation by Rachel was quite extraordinary. No justice for Ross, no justice for Jessie.

I am so glad that my deduction of Faraaz was accurate. So proud! He's quietly gathered his evidence, waiting for his moment.
Bye, Matthew.

Jessie! YES JESSIE!
Jessie and Faraaz are truly the only hopes for the Faithfuls. But only Jessie deserves anything. The rest of them deserve absolutely nothing. Less than nothing. In fact, they owe me.

@chukwucha_ Roxy was rude before that. Harriett said that she will explain her questions, then Roxy jumped in about the mirrors, confusing the point. I would be annoyed as well.
The complete and utter irony of Matthew saying that it's confirmation bias, when everything that he says is confirmation bias. Matthew wants to be a Traitor so badly that he's doing it all for them. One by one, pushing Faithfuls to be banished.

To have been a rat in the castle watching the Faithfuls being completely useless, firsthand...
Somehow, the only people that they are completely adamant are not Traitors are the actual Traitors. Literally doing their job for them.

@Jordon_Westrope I think because she is a great decoy for banishing Faithfuls. Because she is so loudly wrong, she helps push the wrong ideas, helping the Traitors.
@MitchellWebb85 Yeah, it definitely feels like people just aren't fully listening to what she is saying. They give her time, but that doesn't mean that they are taking it in. I love her persistence, though. She's brilliant.
