That whole website is comedy gold.

They're all sitting around in a circle like recovering meth addicts or child abusers only their crime is "being white".

If I bump into you around town here in L.A., jm1982, I better see you doing your breathing exercises in the presence of my dark-skinned self.

I love it when conservatives pound their chest about the virtues of freedom, blah, blah, blah, but can't just f-ing ignore stuff other people are doing. When a group of people that the OP will never encounter, engage in a city that the OP will never step foot in, to achieve a goal that OP could not care less about, it's still fodder for a derisive post.

It's too funny to pass up.

Did you read that website? It's like an Onion article.

I'm not a conservative so I don't really care much, but honestly, who has more time in this hands: someone who cuts and pastes an article with a paragraph-long blurb, or someone who spends years and years and tens of thousands, possibly a hundred thousand or more of dollars on an education and career that culminates in leading a group of people in "breathing" to combat internalized racism and communicating via an app?

Nobody is saying they shouldn't be free to hold their workshops.
