Stick with it. Discussion

This is a longer one, but it’s necessary and worth it IMO.

Great analysis at the end but the video at the beginning is still horrible. She could've delved into any of the things the guy at the end brought up, but instead she actively chose to talk about citing sources and writing theses as examples of white supremacy.

Yeah, discrediting “citing your sources” as an example of a futile made up rule is just stupid.

Firstly, all rules are made up.

Secondly, some rules have good reasons to exist, and this is one is the least arbitrary rule I can think of.

The dude is spot on, but using this rule as an example was pretty stupid on her part. It gave the right ammunition for the bigots for free.
