The public and even this forum latches on the Australian break dancer which is nothing but a regurgitation of their own lack of originality. Every thought, opinion, and feeling you have is not your own instead that of an undulating amorphous mass that will inevitably consume you and itself one day. No original thinker would ever look at someone trying something original, fail, and make fun of them. Criticize the institution sure, but her? I hope that you one day reap what you sow

She has a phd in cultural studies with an emphasis on breakdancing. Theres really no excuse for her performance or her delusions. That said I do feel bad for her with the global backlash she’s getting. But I don’t know, one might say she’s the one reaping what she sowed.

She made a mockery of the sport she had to represent. She took away an opportunity from a real and talented breakdancer. What she did was not original. It’s privilege in its purest form.

She’s the one reaping what she sew

Original? She's an white academic of a Black artform and thought she could perform the medium she studied, not as a member of the subculture who actually takes place in dancing. She didn't do anything original, she did basic moves and ones she invented (see Kangaroo) of a dance form that isn't hers to begin with.

She is deserving and then some of the backlash and hate for what she did on a GLOBAL scale.

I was planning to comment back with that development C1! Reddit sleuths did some good digging too.

She cooked the entire selection process with her husband, who just assumed the role of head coach.

Truly the most egregious display of White People Shit

Cool.

Been looking into 2019 Infiniti QX50, Lincoln MKC, Mazda CX-5, Chevy Equinox, and other similar compact to mid size SUVs but having hard time making the decision.

What are some affordable SUVs that i can buy with ~$25k budget? Hopefully it's post 2019 model and has good fuel economy and reliability (low maintenance cost). I'm less concerned on the mileage but wanting good horsepower (~250hp). Any suggestions? Thanks for your insights.

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.
