We're Past All That: Diversity and Equality

Diversity and Equality

See how past all that we are! It says right there that it doesn't matter. Even if you're not "normal."

Look at all that fucking diversity, bitches! Equality for all!

What more could anyone ask for?

ETA: I've been told that Snopes exposed this one as a photoshop. I am saddened and disappointed that black, brown, and yellow people can't get equality with normal people. But I have faith that despite the craven actions of an individual, we are still past all that.

The fact that someone felt the need to photoshop that still saddens me.

If it isn't clear, We're Past All That is entirely satire. As we tackle the new face of bigotry in the form of unexamined privilege and double standards, the worst obstacle is the narrative that it is merely a few crazy outliers who are still overtly racist/sexist/homophobic/etc... The defense of one example might be cogent, but as the stories pile on it becomes more and more absurd not to consider it part of a larger systematic problem that is still live and well, and I hope this caricature persona illustrates that.

Obviously to give examples regularly of outright racism, misogyny, homophobia, and such, there will be some alarming stories linked. This is not a safe space, and some stories may be so incendiary as to be triggering.
