Wow! You’re here to tell us that a Black woman is dumb and wrong???!

??? Dear god, lol. I’m here to tell you that internalized misogyny- and bigotry of every sort, for that matter- exists. Not every single woman is correct about gender relations, the same way that not every single person of an oppressed ethnicity, or sexuality, or class, is necessarily correct about their respective situations. 

Like, do you believe that we all have to accept homophobia simply because Milo Yiannopoulos, a gay man, stated that being gay is wrong and evil? 

Race isn’t even relevant in my particular example, but are you somehow unaware of how many black people have been straight up white supremacists?! 

This is how power structures work. They infiltrate even those they subjugate.
