Apparently it really is the case that anyone who isn’t white is somehow unqualified.

    I hate how even the most “neutral” articles about the heinous shit being done to the US government right now still manage to have a headline that makes it sound like it’s the outrage that’s the issue and not the active attempts by government officials to erase any trace of non-white American history

      “Blast” in an article title is a pretty good indicator that it’s just bait for people who are already outraged about something.

      Like, yeah, this shit disgusts me, but I doubt someone “blasting” Trump is gonna do anything about it.

        “Blast” can mean anything from a comdenatory final statement before someone imposes the maximum allowable sentence by law, to an anonymous poster on any social media site saying “I don’t like that”.

        Bullshit phrase
