lonesparkThere are sooooo many news stories (like, on internet news places, mostly, since that's generally whence comes my news) that are transparently racist, and pushing narratives to support institutionalized racism and distract from actual problems caused by real people with actual power, that now my brain thinks every. single. story is like that.
Apparently there was small (white) girl who "won" a "staring contest" with (African) lion. WTF?!?
That's totally a racist narrative, right? And possibly animal cruelty? No, I'm not going click it and read it, but it's in my brain anyway.
There's also the problem of "This is not news, and no one in the mainstream media is reporting on large swaths of (especially economic) news. But yeah.
