CW: Distressing - What happens to a black homeless man that can't pay $100 in bail versus a white man who rapes 4 girls

I never thought my black ass would've gotten to the point of saying this, but fuck these crackers, man.

Fuck. These. Fucking. Crackers.

Took you this long? Lmao I say that shit every other day

Mostly because I went through hellish amounts of internalized racism and thought that the problem was my own race rather than racism itself.

I feel like we all go through this process at least once, we're propagandized to have that self hatred, but once you shed that, what's left is lots of self love and love for our people

Yeah, I'm white and routinely say shit like "sounds about white" or "oh the caucasity"

I can’t find the article but there was a man who had some minor trial over his unkempt lawn or something of that nature. He either smiled or chuckled during court and the judge got pissed and gave him a harsher sentence. I think it was during zoom too.

Apologies: I may be remembering wrong. I think there were two different incidents: the one above, and there was one of a 70 year old cancer patient who wasn’t able to mow the lawn, and the judge scolded him and threatened to put him in jail if it was an option. He was Bangladeshi and the judge was white. The guy who chuckled was black IIRC and the judge was also white
