Nope. White women rarely get reprimanded for the multiple ways they behave disgustingly towards black women. I've seen it firsthand, and know many black women who could testify to that. I actually have had better experiences with white men than white women, overall. White men are more straight up, white women are more hypocritical and phony. And like I said in my piece, propping up white women will still be beneficial to white men, the two are inextricably linked, I have evidence of that but won't go into it here.

Finally, history informs the present. You can't dismiss it. That's why I traced it all through history. Those were different times yes, but systemic and interpersonal racism are still pervasive today, as a direct result of the historical foundation. If you don't see it it's because you don't want to see it.
