    By the way, noticing with Tlaib that White America is doing that thing again where any POC person who is expressing righteous anger over an injustice gets painted with the “irrational anger / hysterical / unhinged / crazed / hate-filled / etc” brush. Only white people are allowed to get mad, usually at grave injustices like “being told a wear a mask in a shop” and things like that. Death to America.

      Used to be that wight men had passion and righeous fury, women were hysterical and POC were plain mad. Now that wight women have been well co-opted to the mainstream, it’s gauche to call them hysterical.

        No we definitely still get called hysterical if we are in any way challenging to the status quo.
