If I had a nickel for every time a straight white male lectured me on how to deal with oppression, I’d buy CNN and dismantle it permanently.https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1002320010822365185 …

I’m sorry, I’m having a really hard time taking this response seriously.
-
I feel like it’s just something straight white dudes aren’t able to get, like ever. They don’t *get* what is required to fight oppression - being soft on people is not it.

They really don't have a clue. She was talking about the fact that everyone is ignoring what's going on down at the border. If Brian had his baby taken from him, he'd sure as hell want someone with a loud mouth and a big platform to be advocating for him.
-
And if nothing else, she proved that the only way to bring media attention to an issue is to use vulgarity or do something outlandish. And even STILL, CNN didn't cover the immigration policies, they ONLY covered what she said about Ivanka. The media is COMPLETELY useless now.

Seriously, it’s so utterly useless.
@brianstelter I want you to tell us if you think you do your job well *and* effectively. Do you think you’re doing enough to push back against authoritarianism and corruption? - 1 more reply

Yes, straight white male.

And to be clear I’m a social worker and a therapist. Your take is incredibly, stupidly, breathlessly wrong.

Brian, I admire this Facts First response. I have a question though. Given that our attentions are finite, how do we use Facts First to navigate in a world of infinitely many facts?

So now you're going to start lecturing him directly... about what you think lecturing means? Oof
