I'm pretty sure what you meant to say is that you have a problem with a strong woman calling the shots. What you'd prefer is for a man to be your negotiating partner. That would make you more comfortable. That would give you confidence. Here's what I say: tough shit.https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1078636936342863872 …

Wow! Bravissima to the lovely @thandienewtonhttps://twitter.com/globalsnewsroom/status/1078881324952375296 …

STOP TURNING WOMEN INTO HORSES IN THE KENTUCKY DERBY!!!!https://twitter.com/tictoc/status/1078342664569999360 …

I can only hope that somewhere deep inside there is a conscience in one of them, any of them, and that they will one day wake up and use their position for good. In the meantime, al I can do is stew and seethe as I watch them cut their ugly swath through the world.

If you don’t want to be part of the answer then yes, you are part of the problem. But worse— if you want to actively grasp and grope your way to prominence by using all the worst aspects of the problem itself to your own advantage, well, all I can say is shame on you.

And in the meantime you have become actively complicit in propping up aglobal system of getting and spending that is sending billions into unspeakable poverty and the environment into a death spiral.

If you want your perfume to sell you have to look the other way while young women stampede down the rabbit hole of body dysmorphia and anorexia ina futile effort to emulate your surgically crafted looks.

Exploitation and consumption go hand in hand after all. If you really want a clothing line to sell at Kmart or wherever then You’ll have to look the other way while the Cambodian and Sri Lankan 12 year olds sew the stuff for rock bottom pay.

Clearly mentally ill husband for the dubious purpose, I presume, of seeming not to hate black folk? Has she ever, in fact, protected Kanye from the exploitation he has been subjected to as a result of his illness? Of course not. She’s the exploiter in chief.

Did she ask why the US has the largest prison population in the world next to Saudi Arabia and China? Did she challenge the President on his racist language and the stoking if hatred he has engaged in since day one? And did she once challenge him for exploiting her..

When Kim K went to the White House and talked Trump into clemency for Alice Johnson (yes she has an actual name) that was nice. But nice is a damn low bar! Did she talk about how many other women have also been jailed for ridiculous amounts of time for defending themselves?

But that’s not your fault and there is nothing you can do about it. Right? WRONG!! There is plenty you can do about it and plenty they can do about all of it. It would start with taking responsibility for representing something better and more meaningful than consumption

But once they’ve lured us in they whisper a hypnotic ideology into our ear. Don’t ask hard questions about where your stuff comes from. Don’t fret about the state of the world. Yes, people die in the Mediterranean every day grasping for a shred of the dream you live,

And what the Kardashian’s have done is to spread the gospel of having, taking, buying and using with absolutely no regard for the needs of anyone other than themselves. Do they make you laugh sometimes? Sure they do. That doesn’t make you a bad person. That’s how they lure us in

But “nice” is a dam low bar if you ask me. If you take it upon yourself to carve out a place for yourself in the American—and even global—consciousness, then you have a moral obligation to be mindful of what you do with that rare and lucky opportunity.

In their greedy grasping for the two emptiest things on earth: money and attention— they have left a wake behind them of damage and destruction. No, to my knowledge, none of them has actually lifted a finger against another human being. In fact I am sure they can be very “nice”

THREAD: I don’t usually lob hand grenades but this disgusts me. They were born with advantages most people can only dream of. And I don’t care that the mom says she “only” came from a middle class family. Middle class in America is wealthy beyond comprehension anywhere elsehttps://twitter.com/elklien/status/1077626706893172738 …
