Why I Won’t Stop Talking Shit About Basic Bitches & Pumpkin Spice Lattes BY BRIANA URENA-RAVELO http://feminspire.com/wont-stop-talking-shit-basic-bitches-pumpkin-spice-lattes/ (via junkyardvarren) |
You see, the term “Basic Bitch” and has been Columbus-ed. White people want so badly to be in on the joke of making fun of white people (so as to seem hip and down and to escape criticisms of whiteness, supremacy, and racism themselves) that they picked a group of white people they can lampoon and make fun of, all while distancing themselves from whiteness, a very tragic practice summed up neatly as “White People Be Like ‘White People Be Like’”.
“
the phraise “click it or ticket” is all over commercials, bilboards and all that but why does that translate to “click it or ill shoot your black ass”
or
“click it or ill bust out this car window and taze you in front of your children”legitimate question
And I cried. For myself. For this woman talkin’ about love. For all the women who have ever stretched their bodies out anticipating civilization and finding ruins.

Every time I hear a white boy talking angry on his phone in public I evacuate the area immediately. They be like “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU CALLING ME FOR, LACY?!”
I look.
Then I be gone.
Not today, Timothy. Not gonna shoot me up.
