wait are we still pretending not to know that anyone but white women are capable of displaying emotions they aren't really feeling, also known as "acting", a profession many people of all races and genders undertake

oH. because they showed a peek behind the curtain of the emotional mastery required to survive under patriarchy?? men HATE this
it's literally just acting! it's just acting. everyone can do acting. it's not a "white women" thing.

there's an OBSESSION on left twitter with the idea that white women are constantly using crocodile tears to get Black folks killed but it seems to me that the people who do the violence have some agency in this equation? white men are not just a gun that white women aim and fire?

yeah I would agree. like, of course there’s a history to this dynamic and it has existed! but violent white men have been using “protect the pure womanhood” as an excuse for centuries regardless! & that’s not necessarily the main dynamic at play in a lot of police shootings now.

right?? and like, maybe women in the aggregate are slightly better at certain emotional displays due to the survival under patriarchy thing and somewhat greater emotional intelligence, maybe (again, broad brush). but yes, anyone could if they knew how to do it!
