The thing about Those White People Baby Names is the way they so poetically express the tension between individuality and rigid conformity. These parents all want to name their child something unique, because they value the concept of uniqueness, yet simultaneously they abhor it in practice… ergo, 30 different spelling variations on the most normative possible names. This homogeneity-masquerading-as-diversity is inseparable from capitalist consumer culture and in fact is directly analogous to the experience of walking into a grocery store and being asked to “choose” between 50 varieties of toothpaste with the same exact ingredients, 12 brands of laundry detergent, etc.

stuck up white woman who hates being around people especially people of colour: I should be…a nurse…some kind of…caretaker…a high-empathy based role of sorts…

Stuck up white man who believes no one is ever right but him: I should be…a doctor…a police man, perhaps..some kind of job where I must listen without bias to solve the problem ..

I feel like “baby boomers refuse to retire” is a weird way of saying “A lot of older people literally have to work continue working for as long as possible or they’ll die”

‘boomers versus millenials’ rhetoric is just another way of getting the poor to fight each other instead of blaming the rich.

Gay people from 1950-2010: we are human just like you, we’re not another species or a subculture, the only difference is that we are attracted to the same gender.

Gay people in 2018: straight people are stinky, WIG!

Str8 Ppl from 1950-2010: [assault/murder gay people while keeping them from getting married/having rights]

Str8 Ppl in 2018: this gay online said straight people dress like randomized sims and it hurt my feelings
