Adventures in the Patriarchy™: Supreme Unleaded Gaslighting

Chronicling the ongoing intersectional struggle to liberate women — inclusively defined as the legacy kind and the transgender individuals — from the Patriarchy™, one microaggression at a time.

British anti-sexual harassment PSA: An exercise in supreme gaslighting

I would love to preface this with the standard “you’re not going to believe this” disclaimer.

Sadly, though, unless you’ve somehow blissfully missed the intersectional feminist goings-on in the West over the last ten years and beyond, you absolutely will believe the following PSA from the British authorities concerning sexual harassment on the streets and in public transportation.

The assailants are all white men/boys; the victims are universally ethnically diverse; the good Samaritans who intervene and correct the evil white men/boys are all their co-ethnics.

Aside from the obvious and absurd racial subtext, there’s also a strong class one.

Class relation dynamics in Britain, which have more or less existed in static form for centuries, are complex and somewhat impenetrable to the American mind, which has been inculcated in class mobility as a foundational pillar of the national mythology going back to its founding.

On the class angle, note that all of the white perpetrators have Cockney accents, the dialect of the working class.

Then, when the video cuts to the female narrator lamenting sexual harassment against a backdrop of emotional piano music, the accent is suddenly posh and proper in the tradition of the governing elites.  

Cut back to another scene of a white Briton harassing an ethnic woman on the street, who is then saved by an African squatter good Samaritan, and the accent just as suddenly reverts back to the Cockney.

It’s subtle, but it’s there and much more obvious to anyone familiar with the deep-seated class divisions in Britain.

Meanwhile, this is what street harassment of European women actually looks like, as seen through the lens of reality rather than filtered through the government's Great Replacement lens.

Boston Karen procures Haitian migrant, immediately sends her to kitchen

What follows is not some wild-eyed, historical revisionist fever dream from a man pining for the heady days of the antebellum South.

What follows, rather, is a real-life human interest story from NBC 10 in the Boston area profiling a Karen with a heart of gold who welcomed into her home for indentured servitude a Haitian migrant named — and, please understand, this is not cartoonish racism on my part but her actual reported name — Wildande.

Via NBC 10 (emphasis added):

A migrant family from Haiti spoke exclusively with NBC10 Boston about their experience in the Boston area. They recently found a host home in Brookline, Massachusetts, and they've been searching for jobs. 

It's been an emotional few weeks for Wildande Joseph and her husband. First, they slept on the floor at Boston Logan International Airport and then in children's hospital, with their 2-year-old daughter who got very sick. 

However, things are now looking much brighter as they've been welcomed into Lisa Hillenbrand's Brookline apartment

She said her daughter is very happy. When she wakes up in the morning, she says, "Hi, Lisa" and everyone starts the day smiling.

"It's a delight, and it's really fun having them. What I realized is there's so much prejudice against refugees mostly because people don't know them*," said Hillenbrand.

Hillenbrand said she feels like she has her own personal chef as Wildande loves cooking. In fact, her goal is to open a restaurant.

The couple has their work permits and they've been taking English classes. They say they're open to work anywhere to save money for their future. In the meantime, they're enjoying their time with Hillenbrand, their new friend for life and their daughter's new grandmother.

*You might note that this is the way that pit-bull owners talk about their pets: “People have prejudices about pit bulls being violent, vicious animals who kill and maim children because they don’t know them.”
