“We are sun and moon, dear friend; we are sea and land. It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other’s opposite and complement.”

sociolab:

Do you ever think about the fact that the US has created and legitimized a system of institutionalized inequality by funding schools through property taxes? That basically a child’s education is only as good as the value of the property in their neighborhood. Funny how education is so often viewed as an equalizing factor when there is nothing equal about it.

oops.

ugh.

Resentment of the Day: Abercrombie CEO Criticized for Being Ugly in Many Ways

Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries is facing intense criticisms and mockeries after a news article criticizing his advocacy of anti-plus-size policy reached on the front page of Reddit last night. In an interviewwith Business Insider published last week, retail industry analyst Robin Lewis claimed that Jeffries was intentionally trying to exclude overweight customers from shopping at his store, saying “he doesn’t want larger people shopping in his store, he wants thin and beautiful people.” The article went on to note that Jeffries had previously stated in an interview with Salon in 2006 that the company was intentionally exlusionary and only wished to market to “cool kids.” Redditors were quick to point out Jeffries’ own lack of appeal, making a slew of images insulting his looks and comparing him to actors like Gary Busey.

I knew there was a valid reason why I was against this shit in high school.

Although this man’s outrageous views directly reflects our society’s skewed desire to discriminate against people based on appearances, I’m kind of tired of the focus being placed onto his less-than-attractive appearance. Even though we do this to show the irony of his opinions, I can’t help but feel like it merely perpetuates the idea that it’s alright to scrutinize others based on their appearances. The focus belongs on his hateful and unjust opinions and actions, not on his own “lack of appeal.” Just because he believes he can label and devalue individuals who don’t fit society’s ideal, doesn’t mean that we have the right to label and devalue him based on his appearances.
