"When someone has arrived at this place of delusion, their only pressing commitment is preserving the myth they've told themselves—and so their minds for all practical purposes are rendered nearly unreachable."

@Freeyourmindkid My white friend reversed down a hiway off ramp because he took the wrong exit. I was freaking out in the passenger seat. Cop stopped us, reprimanded my friend for his stupidity, and told us to "get a move on". #MyWhitePrivilege
@Freeyourmindkid As a teen I spat in a cop’s face when he broke up a party I was at and all he did was drive me home and tell my mom that I was a “trouble-maker” #MyWhitePrivilege
@Freeyourmindkid Always been pretty tame, but here's a shitty anecdote: every six months over the last ten years living here in D.C., I get cop cars that pull up to me while I'm walking at night... to remind me it's an unsafe neighborhood (it's not) + to ask if I need a ride.

@Freeyourmindkid A LOT of shoplifting when I was younger: even when I was caught all I got was a slap on the wrist. But nobody was watching the white girl in the polo shirt, they were too busy scrutinizing the Hispanic and Latinx kids. #MyWhitePrivilege
@Freeyourmindkid I got caught stealing multiple times as a teenager and they never called the cops. They just let me go with a warning. Every. Single. Time. #MyWhitePrivilege
Pat Buchanan tells Laura Ingraham that we shouldn't bring “people from different… cultures and ethnicities and races” to America because African-Americans haven’t been “fully assimilated.” WOW!
Your heart, your experience, your values, your education, your training, your perceptions, your faith, your relationships, your self-knowledge, your knowledge of society and *all the evidence* tells you you're right about Trump.
Don't be gaslit. You *are* right. He's a criminal.
@LindseyGrahamSC TRANSLATION: Trump has not been exonerated, every republican who said Trump's exonerated is full of shit, Barr is starting to walkback the bullshit coverup, you're now softening your stance, and everyone knows you're compromised.
She’s not a snotty YouTuber. She aced her own tests. She didn’t pretend to be what she isn’t. Her parents aren’t connected rich people who bought their kid’s way into college. Congratulations, Jakelia for earning your way in through hard work and talent! https://t.co/tKD0vAxFHO
