"Erika Righter raises her tattooed forearm to her face, in despair of all of the racism she’s witnessed as a social worker, then laments how a white friend always ends phone calls with 'Love you long time.'"

"'And what is your racism, Erika?' Rao interrupts, refusing to let her off the hook. The mood becomes tense. Another woman adds: 'I don’t know you, Erika. But you strike me as being really in your head. Everything I’m hearing is from the neck up.' Righter, a single mother, retreats before defending herself: 'I haven’t read all the books. I’m new to this.'"

From "Why liberal white women pay a lot of money to learn over dinner how they're racist" by Poppy Noor in The Guardia).

Shouldn't that be "The Giaridia"?

The solution for these women is suicide. Save the $2,500 and the years of agonizing. Just do it

“If you did this in a conference room, they’d leave,” Rao says. “But wealthy white women have been taught never to leave the dinner table.”

This is pretty creepy. Being a human being I can understand self loathing to some extent, but I would never choose to indulge it in such a way. A little self examination good, but self humiliation is not.

I think about that Gary Larson cartoon where a couple lions are eating around a fire and one of them complains he snorted a wildebeest bone up his nose laughing at a cheetah joke.

Maybe the West really does deserve to die. I guess die it will anyway, whether it deserves it or not.

Why it is So Hard, for White People to Talk, About Racism

umm,, 'cause they charge us $2,500?

Ice Nine म्हणाले...

The psychopathology fairly gushes out of that incredible article.

tds म्हणाले...

why do they even go to such a workshop when they could get a few hours of quality S&M play for those $2500. It seems humiliation is what they need like that prosecutor from 'Billions'

gilbar म्हणाले...

Do you get the impression;
That most of these ladies' problems would go away, if their husbands would spank them more?

jaydub म्हणाले...

The Republican party should buy a year's subscription to The Guardian for every household in the US as a service to the country. There is no better example of leftist ideological rot than the drivel that daily graces the pages of that commie rag, and it could provide the public a daily window into the minds of the Democrat leadership. It's enough to even make Chuck puke. Okay, maybe not Chuck, but probably Inga.

tds beats me to it !

Temujin म्हणाले...

I don't know about all wealthy white women and their habits. But I know a few, and the few I know would not put up with this bullshit. They got wealthy, not on the backs of husbands, but on their own guts, guile, determination, and ability to see through BS and call it when presented.

This is nothing more than today's socially approved bigotry being played out. It's the mindset our schools, K-12 and university level have been cranking out for years now. It's now fully embedded and showing up as a 'must do' event in the finest communities.

The Left loves self-flaggelation.

Why are white liberal Democrat women so racist?

traditionalguy म्हणाले...

Re-education Camps for the white guilty rich. Great idea for spending some money and you get virtue signalling off the charts. The rich folks are safe. They will never have to face black racism. So why not brainwash yourself for fun.

Clyde म्हणाले...

This masochistic baloney sounds like the new Fifty Shades of White Privilege. Sounds like Erika has advanced to Ecru level.

Wince म्हणाले...

It seems unlikely anyone would voluntarily go to a dinner party in which they’d be asked, one by one, “What was a racist thing you did recently?” by two women of color, before appetizers are served.

It's not hard to identify the bigots and grifters in that room.

Birkel म्हणाले...

Fools and their money...
Sucker born every minute...
Scam artists gonna scam...

clint म्हणाले...

Just remember that the Left has replaced religion with their politics, and it all makes sense.

The wealthy are publicly competing to demonstrate how virtuous and humble they are. Same as it ever was.

traditionalguy म्हणाले...

Seriously, the whole activity assumes that if the whites repent, the blacks will forgive them. Hint: they won't unless they are Christians in which case you just need to show them respect.They already have forgiven you.

Iman म्हणाले...

I always knew Linda Ronstadt was racist with her “love you for long, long time”...

Why is that Indian-American Caucasian occupying an American-Indian graveyard and making money from racism?

Lurker21 म्हणाले...

This is the sort of thing Christian "Stuff White People Like" Lander would have had a field day with ten years ago. He would also have appreciated Woke Mayor Pete.

Is it troubling that an Asian/Indian woman is co-running the show? Wealthy White women being lectured at by Wealthy Asian women who think they aren't susceptible to the same prejudices? Is there something a little amusing about that?

I understand: they had the British Empire. But take that up with the English, not us.

Last time I heard that "Love you long time" was 50 years ago in Naples up in the alleys.

Hey Joe,

Love you long time.

Somebody please tell me that is not the context here.

Please.

$2,500! That is a great business. I do it too if I were black.

It is a reference to "Full Metal Jacket".

What can you say but, what the fuck is wrong with these women? The white women, that is. The colored ladies, er, ladies Of Color are also fucked-up broken human beings, but they're explicable as low-life hustlers. They have an exploitative racket going catering to lost souls with more money than brains and mental stability. It's what they do, like any of the other remunerative niches that low-lifes with a bullying streak end up in.

But how does anybody who isn't straight-up mentally retarded, or maybe severely psychologically damaged by a traumatic childhood, gets themselves to the place those white bints are in? One can only guess at some weird toxic combination of extreme gullibility and moral vanity/pathological narcissism, all primed by the shabbiest level of brainwashing "education" available today. Marinated with a maternal instinct severely perverted and disordered by the preceding conditions. Who knows.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

I just referred to a second scene later in the movie.

hawkeyedjb म्हणाले...

Saira Rao probably imagines that the only reason people wouldn't vote for her is gender or ethnicity. The fact that she hates most of the electorate doesn't figure into it.

Do you really need a POC to detect racism? It seems like it should be possible to automate that function. Like smoke detectors. They'd be a lot cheaper. You could have one in every room.

Krumhorn म्हणाले...

We represent a young rapper who has a terrific work ethic, thinks clearly about what he does, and is a great client. He is married to a WOC who is a professor of racist studies at a top, prestigious, university who has written the most hateful and racist leftie crap imaginable. She must be Rao's twin sister.

The client and I never talk about his wife since he would certainly have grounds to leave the firm 3 minutes into the conversation.

Another client has been approached by a couple of women at University of Wisconsin-Madison who go around to medical schools with a program of workshops called Bias Reduction in Internal Medicine to browbeat physicians into facing their "unconscious bias" and put them through a process of fixing themselves. It's horrifying to imagine what those workshops must be like for the doctors. My legal advice has been to send them back to Madison.

As someone who worked in the civil rights movement in 66 in the Mississippi Delta, I own my biases and have no intention of changing them. When I watch Live PD, I am often heard yelling at the tv: "Hit him/her with your stick!! Do it!!"

Just make the check for $2000 (you get the friends and family discount) payable to Yancey Ward Inc. It is tax deductible.

John henry म्हणाले...

Howard,

It's been many years since I've seen the movie but my recollection is that the guy actually shows the hooker his "Alabama black snake"

Is she sees it then says it is too big, how is that a stereotype?

I would agree with you if she said it without seeing it.

But as I say it has been a while so I am not certain of the scene details. I do rem it as being funny.

While we're on the topic of psycho-sexual disorders...these ever more "provocative" (i.e., dumber and crazier) I Hate Whitey tirades from Angry Colored Women really reek of "Pay Attention to me, white man, PAY ATTENTION TO ME!", don't they? About one part desperate click-bait to two parts psycho-bitch shit test.

Futile shit-tests, because unfortunately the guys whose attention they really want aren't the cringing castrati giving them op-ed space or following them on Woke Twitter.

Seriously, the whole activity assumes that if the whites repent, the blacks will forgive them

It assumes that I have something for which to repent False assumption. I haven't done anything.

And IF I did, I certainly wouldn't pay someone $2500 to berate me about it.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

"Seriously, the whole activity assumes that if the whites repent, the blacks will forgive them"

Well, if you are willing to pay $2500/session, you won't be forgiven immediately.

$2500 to be "forced" by Ms. Rao and Ms. Jackson to admit I'm racist?Are the women paying so lacking in self-confidence that they pay to be verbally abused by two women who are themselves racist for saying such things without so much as a background conversation. How about I give my response to Jackson and Rao for free. "Fuck you!"

I second the motion. Whether it's prophecy or "too many white girls next door in the Olympics", The Guardian serves as an object example of clear and progressive dysfunction.

If you have to take a class to find out you are "racist", you most likely aren't. Just stupid.

Why is "love you long time" racist? Or even microaggressive? Cheesy, yet, but why racist?

Gahrie म्हणाले...

Why is "love you long time" racist? Or even microaggressive? Cheesy, yet, but why racist?

Because it is associated with Vietnamese sex workers and is usually said in a faux Vietnamese voice.

I detest people like this. “What I went through to be a mother, I didn’t care if they were black,” she says, opening a window for Rao to challenge her: “So, you admit it is stooping low to adopt a black child?” No. That’s not what she’s “admitting”. She even prefaced this with a statement on how friends treat her as “saving” two black kids, but she just wanted to be a mother, race was immaterial. But that nasty women immediately jumps nd twists the statement. $2500 to have 2 A-holes mess with your head. The question has to be asked, why am I not insanely rich if people are just tossing money away like that.

Maillard Reactionary म्हणाले...

You lost me at the "tattooed".

People with such self-loathing, and the narcissism to advertise it, are disgusting.
They deserve to live in self-created misery and obscurity.

I am not amused, intrigued, nor have my "thoughts" been "provoked".

Disgusting. And sad, very sad. How many have died with never a chance to live such an easy life as hers, nor even known that such a life were possible? It happens every day.

Sad.

mikee म्हणाले...

Sorry, after more than a decade of being told for free that my skin color makes me irredeemably racist, inherently racist, and unconsciously racist, I'm not about to pay money to be told the same thing again. The illogic and obvious self-serving of the idea that skin color makes one racist stopped being hilarious a long time ago, and in the Trump era is now only sad.
