Looking back the first time I’ve truly encountered white feminism in its finest form was at unversity. We were discussing the book “The Reader” and whether one could excuse the female main character’s involvement in Holocaust because she couldn’t read and write, and thus had to take this job at the concentration camp…. most students were like “fuck no!” but the professor, this entitled arrogant white woman, honest to God declared that there were no female N*zis and that men just forced them into committing these acts!!!! So this woman, a UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR in GERMANY!!!, had the NERVE to claim that no woman in N*zi Germany who believed in this ideology and committed N*zi crimes was responsible for any of it!!!! I will never ever get over this and it shows how far up this kind of thinking goes, even IN GERMANY where we are being taught about the atrocities we committed during World War II in school countless times, none of it gets excused… but there are still some dumbass white women who believe their precious asses weren’t responsible for anything bc it were just the evil white men!!!
(also I got into a huge ass fight with her over this and then over something else later on… she gave me a bad grade and thought I was ridiculous…but … it was worth it, fucking freak!)
Omfg I hope she got fired. It’s just yet another “white women can do no wrong uwu” mindset, only more explicitly vile. I wonder if she’s as sympathetic to the Jewish, Romani, and queer women who were victims of the regime, but somehow I doubt it… I’m sorry you got a bad grade, I hope someone complained to the administration and at the very least put it on record that she’s engaging in historical revisionism.
