      I respectfully disagree with this. Not calling white supremacists what they are just gives the victims of white supremacy an out to not tackle the issue of replacing systematic white supremacy with a system of justice. We have to address major issues BY NAME, & not soften ithttps://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/988048827100942337 …

      White supremacists are never supreme. They are universally basic, broke down, fragile, and insecure. I'm no longer calling them that or even using the phrase "white supremacy." It's a farce. Phony as a $3 bill. They actually like the phrase. Call them bigots, racists, etc.

          no fam..We need to call it exactly what it is. Victims of white supremacy too often try to call it something else because of ego. Many of us don't like the term because it hurts our feelings. But whenever we try to call it something else, all roads lead back to white supremacy

          SK - You can call it whatever you want, its still not stopping it. Let's not change something to make us feel better. We can't call Cancer a Cold. The reality of what's going on is severe so let's not sugar coat it. Calling it other than WS will lull "you" asleep.

          Don’t think I was clear. What I’m saying is that I think the name sucks. Not that it’s too strong. They aren’t Supreme, they are fragile and insecure. I was just thinking out loud honestly.

          We are fully aware of that on an individual level, but SYSTEMATICALLY... and major emphasis on SYSTEMATICALLY, they ARE extremely supreme. That’s why we have to address it for what it is

          Tariq I love your work and follow everything you do Sir. I agree with Shaun here. That phrase allots power to the group they do not have naturally. It also fosters fear in the hearts and minds of black and brown people who may hear and believe it. I prefer #Whitepettiness

          It would proper to classify it as white degeneracy wrongly cast as supremacy.

          White sociopathy is far more accurate.
