Race, and Feminism’s Magical Disappearing Act

thecrankyconservative:

Yesterday one of my friends emailed me an article on a young woman from Louisiana who was horribly disfigured in an attack by a group of men who she had been resisting the catcalling of. Her name is Jessica Byrnes, and she was beaten with a steel pipe at a gas station her and her boyfriend had stopped at after leaving the beach – The steel pipe was later thrown through their car window while they were trying to make a hasty escape, breaking out several of Jessica’s teeth.

Of course it’s not getting widespread media coverage. I think the biggest outlet that has written on it was Cosmopolitan, and it was barely 2 paragraphs and hugely vague.

Even on Tumblr’s feminist vein, I haven’t really heard a peep about this girl’s fate. And one would initially wonder why – This story has all of the hallmark characteristics of the perfect feminist crusade!

This girl was being shamed for what she was wearing, catcalled, and then was violently attacked for trying to say ‘no means no’… That’s like… half of the feminist playbook right there.

Yet there’s no real outrage from feminists to be seen, and upon further inspection of the situation, one can see the reason why.

Jessica Byrnes’ assailants are all black.

I’ve spoken before about the hierarchy of liberal narratives, but for this only one thing needs to be said: Women may be a protected class for SJWs, but skin color trumps all.

I say ‘skin color’ as opposed to race if only because I want to ensure I include the oft-ignored legions of women in or from the middle east who suffer daily under sharia law. Their plight, apparently, isn’t all that interesting to feminists, who are content to write off their killings, zero civil rights, and no protection under the law even from rape as a cultural no-go zone.

As I have seen in many examples, feminists are even known to encourage violence against women when race becomes a factor. I remember the story out of the Baltimore Riots, where a feminist journalist (Caitlin Goldblatt) was complicit in fabricating a story against a young woman being mugged. She was written off as a drunk bimbo who was trying to grab something away from an innocent black man – Turns out, she wasn’t drunk, and was only trying to keep a grip on her purse that was being stolen from her by a thug who already had several bags full of stolen merchandise on him.

Of course, how can I forget the active veteran feminist Judith Levine, who I recently posted an article on in which she condemned the criminal prosecution of black men who are charged with sexual assault.

Feminism treats it’s campaigns almost like magic tricks. Slut Walks, crusades against dress codes and nudity laws, and growing out body hair are it’s chief tricks. But when actual work is needed, when an actual miracle needs to be preformed to protect women, Feminists do a disappearing act.

But when race gets thrown into the mix, one would almost wish that the Feminists would just ‘poof’ into thin air – Because feminists become absolutely volatile, almost like gasoline on a fire.

So desperate to get in on whatever new trend is lighting up the streets that day, feminists treat the legitimate problems of women like a life insurance policy that enables them to expand beyond their reach, but have a safe, comfy place to rest when the going gets rough on the outside.

Third wave feminists are like charlatans selling snake oil. They’re happy to hock their wares as a premium product so long as people are willing to pay whatever they charge.. But the moment they see another stall is getting more customers, they abandon their caravan for a new one.

Women deserve better than feminism. Period.
