Stop Talking About White Privilege | mrgirlsplaining #17
Hi Horses,
What has white privilege done for YOU lately? I don't mean the privilege of being white... I mean the concept of white privilege itself.
Does constantly reminding people to be woke and to check their privilege actually help anyone get better treatment? Or is it unproductive, pedantic, self-righteous, and really annoying?
Do people actually think about what they say, or do they just parrot a list of talking points they heard someone else say?
People talking about white privilege annoys me so much that it feels like someone has set fire to the fabric of space-time.
In other news--my "Consent Is Complicated" video was taken down by people flagging it as spam. I've appealed the decision and hopefully YouTube puts it back up.
Hi Horses,
So normally movies aren't a thing I talk about, they're how I talk about other things, but in this case, with Joker lining up so perfectly with channel topics (identity politics, incels, and my rapid psychological deterioration), I kind of had to.
love,

Hi Horses,
I wanted to see what people at LA's gay pride parade would say if I asked them about the planned straight pride parade and YouTube's censorship of Steven Crowder for his homophobic comments.
So I put on my pink booty shorts, Vito (www.youtube.com/vito) put on his rainbow skirt, and we set out looking for answers.
love,

Hi Horses,
Jimmy is the editor-in-chief of mrgirl. He has the final say on everything I post, which is good, because sometimes I have some really stupid ideas.
Because my horrible family doesn't want me, he invited me to have Thanksgiving at his grandmother's.
I told him I wanted to make a video about suicide at some point. He replied, "You should interview my mother and grandmother about my uncle killing himself."
So, immediately after we finished eating our Thanksgiving dinner, and having never met them before that day, I did exactly that.
love,
mrgirl

Hi Horses,
Some of you may have seen this video before, but it seemed important to have it up for posterity.
My TikTok account is becoming quite popular, and I feel a bit conflicted about using a platform that I think knowingly perpetuates grooming.

Hi Horses,
Your paranoia is comforting to you, but insidiously destructive. In times like these, when science, facts, and reality are of the daily utmost importance, it's time to let go of the moronic conspiracy theories.
Not only are they incredibly stupid, you are being fed them by uncaring and selfish content creators who spew lies to make money.
We all want to believe there is more than meets the eye, and we are privy to this exclusive enlightenment, but it's usually just not true. It's been time to let it go for a while (ever since we all got internet access), but now it's extra urgent.
love,
mrgirl

Dear Black People,
It's time to be honest. Your supposed white "friends" are all lying to you. I've decided to break with my white brethren and tell the truth, because I simply cannot keep pretending and I cannot hold it in any longer.
