You're reaching, notice no Asian or Hispanic women have really come out in numbers and white dudes for the most part, especially Jewish dudes, LOVE Asian women. Personally I think the media cherry picks the victims they believe the public will care most about. And I get why black women as a whole would be upset because yet again here is another example showing them they don't count as much if at all. As hyper masculine as hip hop is you don't think there isn't swaths of metoos out there fam? Please. This is like the R.Kelly thing, his victims are black so the authorities don't give a fuck, if they were white he'd be dead at his home "reaching what looked like a gun"Fuck her. She has the typical black female spin on this: what about MY pain? Black women hate that their arch nemesis, white women, are being portrayed as victims to the sexual aggressiveness of men. If instead it were black women in the forefront of this "movement" with a bunch of horror stories of them being abused in these was, particularly at the hands of black men, then they wouldn't complain. But it has to be painful for black women to deal with the fact that, yes, white women can be victimized too. It also must hurt that the sexual harassment in Hollywood for the most part excludes black women, suggesting that just maybe they aren't seen as desirable. Most of all, as I have pointed out before, some black women tend to want to make everything about black women. So if they can't control this narrative their response would be to criticize the narrative.
I have some issues with this particular movement but for the most part I find this reaction by women to be reasonable, whether it is in Hollywood, politics, the automotive industry etc. Even at the risk of going overboard and overreacting at times, this movement was needed. A side benefit of it by the way is that these revelations have shown white guys, including beloved liberal ones, in a negative light. Behind the facade of white guys being the ideal men who are ahead of other men in terms of sexism, this movement has exposed the hypocrisy, depravity and entitlement of white dudes. They come across as the type of petty, controlling, abusive and insecure assholes that black female authors have portrayed black men as being for such a long time. Remember in the eyes of many black women white guys are the ultimate embodiment of grass being greener on the other side. Turns out, despite white males being in positions of power that black men aren't, that is far from the truth. It is hard for me to get worked up over any media story that focuses the vast majority of its negative coverage on white men. Doesn't matter if a handful of black guys fall into the mix because most of those guys, like Cosby, probably deserve to be taken down anyway.
The society in which we live doesn't care about the suffering or mutilation of black and brown bodies. That's why some asshole can go around delivering bombs and killing black folks but not be called a terrorist.
