We're just gonna have to agree to disagree.

I went to school for Anthropology. I know not to make assumptions about cultures. I'm not making an assumption about members of caste systems today, but what it was like and what some continues to be like. And there is absolutely no way she isn't racist or hates the low class if she can still stand by her husband. It's not like it was an arranged marriage. She picked him, she can leave him.

It's like looking at a white guy who's racist and saying, yep, it's because he comes from a long line of racists. It's as simple as that.

  1. I've literally never heard of that take on short women. Not saying you're wrong, but that's new to me.

  2. Her family is from India. They have a caste system and you bet your ass she's from the top of that. She's from a long line up "upper class" people who look down on the poor and disenfranchised. She just happens to be a little brown.

I'd prefer them to bomb Wall Street and all those demons inside

True. So what would you suggest? Taking over corporate headquarters and places like Wall Street?

The only ways for us to truly revolt, I think, would be to A. Storm the Capital like the right did, or B. Take over each individual state capital to freeze the government and seize control.

But even then, the military and police could wipe anything out if most are not on our side.

It's Rowling, btw

Oh, but we have to learn about all the countless other racists still? That's cool. Fucking hell.

Performative racist bullshit.

That lady should not be allowed to be behind the wheel ever again! Shame on her thinking she could be and shame on her family for allowing it. She's clearly not mentally capable of it.

Not for me. I am always doing research. It's part of my job.
