I recently gained interest in international relations and diplomacy and I am confused by the countless intergovernmental ideological groups. P5, G4, G7, G20, G77, G24, G15, NAM etc. And each one has its own agenda and interests 🙌🏽.

I find political trolling through gendered imagery ironic and tragic. To delegitimise a man, you strip him of masculinity. You don’t call him corrupt, incompetent or authoritarian. You call him … a woman. Very telling, isn’t it?

White people wanted segregated water fountains but made Black women nurse their babies. Racism isn’t simply hatred; it’s exploitation.
