@thereisnocash @hip_hip_hirai It’s not hair splitting or diversionary to point out I literally did not say the thing you’re having a meltdown over.

The Black women social group I joined just posted this on their story. They won’t be seeing me again. Respectfully.

After my ex found out I have three degrees he started weaving “jokes” about me being a slow learner or stupid into our regular conversations. Unrelated, he dropped out of uni after failing the same first year paper three times.

The smarter women are, the more hostility they face.

In the U.S. & China, the higher women’s IQs, the less they're liked—and the more they’re undermined by coworkers. Men pay no price for being bright.

It's long past time to recognize female intellect as an asset, not a threat.

@thereisnocash @hip_hip_hirai I said they don’t use Black like you think because the person I was replying to said Black only refers to Aboriginal people & not Africans. Also Aboriginal people use lots of other terminology as well as Blak/Black. I personally don’t see Black as the primary term used.

@thereisnocash @hip_hip_hirai Mind you, you said a slur five seconds ago and you’re coming for me? Move.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@itsPrincessTish @_SaintPatrick_ This right here. Now they want in all our spaces because it’s cool to be Black. No thanks.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus A mfer who calls plantations beautiful really has the nerve to call me racist. Ironic.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus Racist to white people. Oh dear.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus Call her up then.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus Or better yet, you invite her into your white groups since you care so much.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus Enough with this reverse racism bs. Idgaf that she’s mixed race, I gaf that she’s non Black trying to force her way into our spaces. There’s ample Pasifika groups she can join where she will actually learn about her culture and relate to them. What do we have to offer her.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus Why do you even care. You’re a white supremacist, go deal with your white person issues.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Vivishurliff3 @neleayahy @Troymorrison7 @kinkinnatus It’s a social group for Black women to mingle with other Black women not a political party. She’s not oppressed.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@eazyemil I’ll say it again.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@kingchorussy Cook Islanders have never been considered Black ever.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@Getinloser3 @NeeNeeNichelle most Pasifika people use “black” to refer to a skin tone. So you’ll hear people say things like “I’m getting black” if they’ve got a tan. I don’t think (m)any of them really think about it in respect to actual race on the day to day unless they’re involved in discourse.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@thereisnocash @hip_hip_hirai Who are you talking to. Can’t be me. Because I never said any such thing.

[✨Rita ✨ @ritawkfld]

@BaddieMonesWrld There’s ample Pasifika groups too but Polys are some of the most prolific culture vultures out, so her wanting in our spaces makes total sense.
