THIS is key. All these 911 calls have been @ DISCOMFORT, not actual fear. And white ppl in general don’t like to feel uncomfortable, but WW especially feel it’s an absolute right. Asking for managers, bursting out in tears, calling 911... this is all @ them not feeling centered.

Somewhere along the lines WW became the self-appointed arbiters of public behavior (woman sleeping in common area). They insert themselves in situations that don’t involve them (the men BBQ’ing LEGALLY), ignore personal space & agency (BW didn’t smile, IM didn’t answer questions)

It is their job, somehow, to ensure that life is functioning by their very specific sets of rules & parameters.
Call them on overstepping, victimizing, bullying, harrassing, and they immediately become victims. You ever see how a middle aged WW acts when police show up for HER?

And, of course, #NotAllWhiteWomen, but ya’ll know that.
