TheWeepingHorse posted:Trying walking the streets of Flushing, Queens. The times I've had to drive around Flushing are the worst driving experiences I've had in the US. Nobody knows how to drive, asian people just running out into the street, everyone is double parking and then pulling into the road without checking mirrors, and everyone loves to use their horn even when there's no where to go. Good chinese food though and also a nice park too. What I'm saying is that I'm racist against my own race.

Roll in with the music to attract the kids and then shut it off. It's not that hard. Anyway NYC ice cream truck drivers are basically roving street gangs that fight each other over territory. They can all go drive off a cliff.

I looked up what the author looks like and I think it's more cause he looks like a little dweeb than him being black because I don't have this problem at all with white women (tho I'm in Philadelphia, not NYC)

The biggest problem I have with white women (I take the trains a lot) is they're the biggest group I've noticed that has consistently little grasp on how to hold doors open for people/groups behind them. No, holding it open 15º just enough so you can squeeze through/sidestep around it doesn't help anyone, you hold the door open all the way 90º or more cause you don't know how much room the person behind you may need! Plus elderly people are a lot slower getting through doors so it's polite to just keep it open so they can just walk through it. I wonder if people that don't understand why it's helpful to open the door all the way just hold it open a crack and walk through because they think it's the bare minimum of what's required of them and don't think about it any further than that. They're like the people who first engage their turn signals while they're slamming on their brakes or already making the turn

It's a fine thing at 3pm, it's annoying for an hour at 9pm. I suppose if you like 45 minutes of a 10second jingle played on repeat out your window then kudos to you and your neighborhood's "character."

as a white woman I make it my business to shoulder check other white women at every opportunity. I'm all about intersectionality (where I get in their way at an intersection)

You're just dead wrong about this man and it's gotta be that you've never experienced the hell that is nyc ice cream trucks. Imagine dead eyes tweety bird mafiosos in the street in a screaming match with a ninja turtle truck full of Cubans while two competing versions of five seconds of she'll be coming round the mountain blare at 110 dB right under your window while you're trying to put a baby to sleep and then you can complain that wanting this poo poo to stop is "waaa ruining our neighborhood character gentrific...."

Especially bad how he narrows the problem down to write an entire article specifically about how: White. Women. are the problem. Not white men, not other women of color. He is spending time and valuable space in the most prestigious newspaper in the world to say that white women have a problem with the way they walk on the sidewalk.

What if this is his and his other black male friend's experience for years, even decades? Taken as is it does seem kind of racist. Should we just discard his experiences because we don't like the implications?

White women replaced White men as the driving force behind popular media and society a while ago, you're still just living in a sexually male dominated world where you're all being lead around by your noses to blame people who enjoy literally the same economic and societal benefits you do, but some will only ever enjoy half of them because they don't have a vagina and endless number of useless boymen in line to gently caress/support them. That's why people kind of just eye roll at the whole "gender-pay-gap" the Obama administration and the left have been trumpeting to near silence for 10 loving years,
