Lots of old probably white men yelling at clouds going on right now.
Why is the white part relevant in this topic? Or old, for that matter - although I guess I can see more relevance there given the discussion of Instagram etc.
I'm probably only being provocative by asking because I had a similarly weird conversation today with a work colleague of mine on fecking Facebook.
She'd posted a status that started with "Beginng to absolutely HATE all men"...and then proceded to rant about crime statistics, the vigil etc.
Nobody had responded to her after a few hours...and I don't like to leave people hanging like that, so I just wrote "Hope you're doing OK" not referencing her post or anything but letting her know that somebody had read it and cared about how she felt.
Within
seconds I got a message 'OMG I'm so sorry, I meant white men. I hope you weren't offended" and a couple more similarly frantic messages - one saying she'd edit her post to change it to white men...all came through one after the other before I even had a chance to reply.
It's just so strange to me, and seems like identity politic brainrot....but I'm willing to hear otherwise.
