Phony, wealthy white woman adopts trendy code words to identify with the "poor folk" to make her fun, relevant, and get nice fee fees. This is the person who needs to live in a black neighborhood for a reality tv show.

Right. Defund the "evil, racist, and oppressive police" -- but not the police in her neighborhood.

cordon off her neighborhood, which has to be in some upscale part of a big city, let everyone know that the police will not enter or respond to calls there...let the games begin!

The "Defund the Police" people need to practice what they preach.

But those four episodes would be magical. I've even thought of a title "Here Comes the Neighborhood."

What is it about AWFLs? Seriously!

How is it that they all drink the Kool-Aid down to its dregs and can absorb and repeat dogma (and demand others do the same) so religiously that they would make a Soviet commissar blush with envy?

What is the chicken/egg here? (Or is it more of a symbiosis?): Is the Social Justice faith designed to fill the god-shaped hole in the upscale secular women/Girl Bosses of today and play on their status anxiety and neurotic need to always be perceived as Good? Or is Social Justice the great invention and product of the modern liberated woman, a crowdsourced faith that is hypermoralized, hyperfeminized and designed to craft a New Church owned and operated by New Church Ladies?

Through my wife I happen to know a bunch of 30-40 yr-old upscale white women with Ivy League (or close) educations, they work in things like publishing, media, TV, and they almost literally have ALL THE SAME THOUGHTS, IDEAS AND BELIEFS—which are also exactly the same as those leading aristocrat AWFLs like the former Mrs. Bezos, the former Mrs. Gates, the former Mrs. Jobs, who are all also more or less the SAME EXACT PERSON. (They all also have some sort of Trans child, but that's a whole nother topic.)

I'm starting to think that the Social Justice faith combined w social media might be the worst thing to happen to women since Ted Bundy.

Ditto with the white liberal celebrities. Jamie Lee Curtis, Charlize Theron, Jennifer Garner/Ben Affleck - all with the trendy transgender kids. Couldn’t believe the latter’s felt the need to announce her/his new identity at their grandparents’ funeral. 🤮

It makes sense to choose a sacred place and time to announce your new sacred beliefs and your new sacred status. In Hollywood etc the trans child is the new Christ child, the center of our moral universe, the Holy Victim who died for our sins (their birth selves die when they are born again in the new faith), the divine messenger to let us know our fallen nature who's come to guide us to a higher, more divine wisdom.

Churches that refuse to defend themselves, their beliefs and parishioners always become absorbed by a newer, stronger. more vital faith. Christianity will die for Social Justice to be born.

What is it about AWFL’s? It’s pretty clear they are narcissistic sociopaths.

I think Katherine should put her money where her mouth is and pay at least 50% of her total assets toward reparations. Furthermore, if she is a "true believer," she should donate at least 25% of her annual salary toward reparations. Otherwise, she's a huge hypocrite.

Salary is abt $800K a year.

So she can donate at least $200k per year toward "reparations."

Come clean Brad: She was generated by AI. The prompt was generate tweets by an "insufferable smug white progressive NPR lady from Connecticut"

OTOH - Listen to what this young Iranian woman refugee has to say. don't get distracted by her looks.

I have to say that after reading her thoughts more thoroughly, I think I'm qualified (as a privileged white woman, of course 😂🤣) to say this may be one of the most racist people in America. I know how wealthy elitists think. (I've grown up around some and a few are family).She is performing and she never, ever, ever forgets to mention she is white, privileged, woman, with beautiful white people hair, a great job, wealth, and a superiority complex. That is signaling to others that she will keep doing what she does, but she knows she's better than them. She's just qualifying it.

I love the idea that supporting Joe Biden of all people, a morally bankrupt 50 year DC snake who authored the 94 crime bills mean you believe in “dignity” and “justice”.

What in the hell does being in support of “dignity” even mean?

It means mutilating childrens genitals. The more childrens genitals you mutilate the more “dignity and human rights”-ier you are

that was a tough read.

wealthy white women can turn any ideology into a navel gazing, self absorbed enterprise. in trying to center the ‘other’, she keeps centering herself. those tweets almost sound like Michael Scott trying to be woke and hip...

It IS NPR, after all. Were you expecting someone you'd actually like to hang out with? The closest I can get to Any NPR staffer or listener is, "Can I borrow your Subaru?"

Remarkably, over the past several days I've come across several different people seriously arguing that NPR is "right of center."
