When faced with misogyny in the headlines teachers and parents always ask:

This looks like a far right terror attack from an individual who only a year ago attacked migrant tents with a sword. Why are we still not treating far right terror with the seriousness it deserves? https://t.co/eEZ5GJW7FK

Kanye’s team dumped all the “white lives matter” tees on skid row. Not thinking about the consequences of the people that live there wanting a shirt to keep them warm with something that could put them in harms way. There are people with language barriers in that community.
