Sorry I didnt understand what you meant here.
- BobbyJo 5y agoSaying she'll get off because she's white, a woman, and rich is like saying your car stalled because your tires were low, you had groceries in the back seat, and your engine hadn't had its oil changed in 18 years. That make more sense? Edit: I'm saying being white and being a woman helps, but being rich helps such an astronomically huge amount more emphasizing anything else feels less like informing and more like baiting. Not sure how that wasn't crazy clear.
