Yes...It Is ALL White Women
Before you begin to rev up your keyboard warrior fingers... pay a bit of attention. Until it is NO White women, it is ALL White women. Let us break this down a bit. White women have HISTORICALLY decided to call upon BIPOC women for emotional labor as well as taking the LEAD when it comes to achieving equity. They do this as they CONTINUOUSLY side with, support, foster, create, procreate with and vote in favor of White men. Their adjacency to power and their protection of privilege outways the NEED for women's rights to be gained (and protected).
This is because they see themselves as FIRST IN LINE for equity.
Even as losses are made to rights that have been fought for have been revoked (or stifled), they have been conditioned to demand that the front lines be filled with the bodies of those they continue to OPPRESS. It is NO secret that this occurs. It is simply ANNOYING that when called out for the behavior...White women begin their chant of individualism and adorn themselves with the cloak of "reverse racism".
From the time that exit poll information has been released and Roe was overturned... the White women brigade had been incessant in their DEMANDS for BIPOC women to fix what they have broken. In addition, they feel compelled to "other" themselves from their actions and the actions of their kindred. We KNOW that the vast majority of those that sit in our faces and knight themselves as allies are predominately performative. White women will protect the sanctity of their privilege... full stop.
They are the original source of white supremacy; they are fighting to gain control of it.
Therefore, it is ALL White women until it is NO White women that remain the most DANGEROUS creatures on the planet.
