This country was built on a racial hierarchy so embedded it can dress up oppression as policy and call it tradition. The media doesn’t miss the forest for the trees — it’s paid to water the root.

From the plantation to the Fed’s boardroom, Black women have borne the cost of progress. We open the door, take the blows, and watch others walk through. The pattern is centuries old: our sacrifice becomes their stepping stone.

Mississippi ranks 48th in child well‑being, 47th in economic well‑being, 50th in health, 48th in family & community. Kids here need food, healthcare, safe homes — not censorship bills. This isn’t about children. It’s about propping up frail egos, pleasing lobbyists, and controlling us

Absolutely. A’ja’s the core, but she needs real support—shot creators, not chaos. Gray’s off, the threes are wild, and Becky’s out here calling it “three quarters of trash” like she’s not the one running the show. If the system’s broken, fix the system. Don’t just blame the players. #Aces #WNBA

Yes—and it’s becoming more blatant. A’ja’s out here carrying the league while folks like Cunningham are worried about “off-court lifestyle” in Detroit?? Blk women built this league. Now that the bigots are watching, we’re supposed to accept dry takes and dry players being pushed to the front?. #WNBA

Nina, your relentless campaign to delegitimize and diminish Kamala didn’t happen in a vacuum—it fed a broader narrative that undermined her at every turn. You don’t get to wash your hands of the consequences now. Some of us remember exactly how loud you were when it was time to tear her down

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut. Tucker and Candace got one right… now watch them choke on it.

“A hit dog will holler”

My face the entire time. 😂

She’s a sore loser and an emotional wreck, plus her grunts are insufferable, demeanor is truly awful.

A very cute moment-but no representation is such a glaring problem.

It’s definitely suspect—6,000 applicants, yet not a single Black or Brown kid on the court? That’s not just coincidence; it speaks to deeper issues in access, outreach, and selection bias within French tennis. If the process is truly open, where’s the representation?

From forced childbirth to denied autonomy, women have always fought against systems that dictate their bodies. Adriana Smith’s case isn’t just tragic—it’s a modern echo of eras where women were treated as vessels, not individuals.

Control disguised as ‘protection’ has always been the excuse.

I voted for progression—for reproductive rights, for the lives of children, for survival, for Gaza. You call it guilt-tripping, but survival has never been just a debate topic.
The ability to feel emboldened while doing nothing? That’s the real downfall—a privilege turned into justification.

We’ve fully entered the sunken place-where selective cynicism overrides strategy, and smug dismissal replaces accountability.
You want to act like your vote was irrelevant, but individual choices build collective outcomes And if the system is broken, what’s the plan, Mick?

Foregone conclusions, deflections—anything but engaging with the actual debate. When it’s less about substance and more about performative outrage, it’s clear the conversation is going left—just not in the way you think. Repeating ‘I voted’ like a badge of honor doesn’t erase the broader issue.

Let’s face it—you frame voting as complicity, but silence is, too. You want to call out missteps, but only one-side gets your outrage. The real question is, when did selective fury replace actual strategy?
So if tradition is the problem, maybe it’s time to break your own cycle.
