Scarlett Johansson: It’s Not “PC” — It’s Fighting Against White Saturation

White celebrities are really trying to push their ignorance and trite surface responses into the spotlight. From Zach Braff’s overly simplistic analysis that “if young people voted at the same rate that seniors voted, there would be no Trump or Pence” (way to ignore gerrymandering, voting right attacks, and the fact that white people got us Trump/Pence) to Alyssa Milano’s consistent online fails, there may be something in the water.

However, white woman are a league of their own —not solely due to their culpability in maintaining a white patriarchal system, but also in their ability to skirt responsibility due to no other fact than they are a white woman. It’s disappointing to see, particularly when it’s a actress you regard highly but, as we are learning, it’s past time to view white (particularly those saturated in whiteness) with a suspicious eye.

The white female celebrity to make the newest hot garbage comment is Scarlett Johansson.
