White supremacy harms white people. The ruling class has convinced us that a bigger piece of a small pie is better than sharing a big pie evenly.

An autistic woman longing for human contact has had her hopes repeatedly dashed by the troublesome existence of other humans, it has been revealed.

Between the "male loneliness" beat and the "passport bro" beat, there sure is a lot of ink being spent on pieces of shit who can't find friends or dates because they're sentient piles of hot wet trash
