This is a far too long, angry diatribe that is very disjoined and poorly organised. Some chapters are all over the place while others have a followable organisation. It is unclear what this author actually believes or is even raging against. It is frustrating to read. I wanted to take her seriously, but after the first few chapters, that was rendered impossible by the book itself, by her own words.
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics Apparently even reading her book is a white supremacist act (words that appear in the book, supposedly said by someone else, but she never refutes them). From her own words, she was fired from the New York Times for speaking out publicly within the company about her bosses, and she‘s claiming this was political... maybe. Or she quit because she saw the writing on the wall about her firing? 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 5d
GingerAntics Again, it‘s unclear. It is all so very unclear. If this is her standard writing style, I have a hunch about a contributing factor in her dismissal from the NYT. @TheBookHippie is 100% accurate in saying this book is unproductive. #NellieBowles #MorningAfterTheRevolution #WhatRevolution #WhatDidIJustRead #JustDont #audiobook #readbytheauthor #unproductive #exhausting (edited) 5d
kspenmoll This book sounds totally weird. Mixed up thinking?! Cloudy brain?! 5d
GingerAntics @kspenmoll honestly, she‘s angry. I‘m not sure there is much else to it. She lost or gave up her dream job, and she‘s pissed. 5d

It is unclear if Bowles is for or against these thoughts? She is not being very clear.

GingerAntics Being expected to show up to work on time is white supremacist? I need some clarification immediately. 5d
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie Stimming gets you fired all the time... mostly white autistic people... but it‘s racist to be against stimming? THIS DOESN‘T MAKE ANY SENSE!!! What is she saying? What is she talking about? 5d
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie now there are baby names that are white supremacist? I‘m either going to need her to get to the point, or I‘m going to have to choose between day drinking and DNFing this one. What is happening? BLM is fading? She is just all over the place. 5d
TheBookHippie @GingerAntics she‘s just mad I think. People aren‘t perfect, activist aren‘t perfect. A bunch of imperfect people must ban together, look in the mirror maybe instead of writing a book attacking everyone 🤷🏻‍♀️ (edited) 5d
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie yeah, this is very much angry rant. There isn‘t an argument to be seen anywhere. 5d

They did?
This is starting to sound less “progressive” and more conservative. 🤨

I have a sneaking suspicion that I‘m going to be regretting this one fairly quickly, but for some reason, I‘m charging ahead. Here. Goes. Nothing.

TheBookHippie Bailed … it‘s not productive .. IMO 5d
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie oooooooh, I am feeling that. Is this just “I got fired from NYT because I conflated BLM and antifa like conservatives and refused to let that go, so here are all these other way more extreme white people to attack instead?” I need some clarity. Being a reader and an intellectual is racist, but only reading one book about antiracism doesn‘t make you a real antiracist, you need to spend YEARS studying this. 🤨🤨🤨 5d
kspenmoll Is she nuts?! 5d
GingerAntics @kspenmoll 🤷🏼‍♀️ 5d

A little night reading…

Where would we be without shared library books. I love that we can borrow a book from another library. This one is from Colorado. This is my fourth book of the month from another library system.
