    Hahaha like it’s only been 500 years.

    We have been writing our own rules and forcing them on others since the Holy Roman Empire. Then the Anglo’s copied the Roman’s notes and a different group of white men started forcing their rules on everyone, and some of them came to America to force them on the indigenous. (Key among them, one particular paesano we just “celebrated” a couple weeks ago…)

    And white men are nowhere near equal level with anybody else. We’ve still got a huge advantage over every other racial and gender-identity group out there, at least in America. Racism is still alive and well, and getting a breath of fresh air and support from the feds. Women have lost autonomy over their body and their health decisions in many states, and voter ID laws in the works disproportionately effect married women.
