So in breaking news, the New York Times has decided that they are going to hire a woman named Sarah Zhang to join their editorial board. Now, why is this relevant to your life? The reason this is relevant

to your life is because Zhang previously wrote for a publication called The Verge and authored The Internet of Garbage, which is a book about online harassment and free speech. The problem for Sarah Zhang is that people actually went through her old tweets, and some of the things that she has tweeted in the past are not particularly great. She has tweeted things like this, quote, dumbass effing white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on

fire hydrants is back in 2014. So not supremely long ago, but a few years ago. Are white people

genetically predisposed to burn faster in the sun, thus logically being only fit to live

underground like groveling goblins.

Hashtag cancel white people.

Oh man, it's kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men.

I dare you get on Wikipedia and play things white people can definitely take credit for.

It's really hard.

This is Sarah Zhang, the New New York Times editorial board author.

White men are BS.

No one cares about women. You can threaten anyone on the internet except cops. I just realized they're all old tweets of hers and she was hired. I'm sure the New York Times, if they didn't do a background check on the person they hired over at the New York Times, then they were entirely remiss. They say, I just realized why I can't stand watching Breaking Bad or Battlestar Galactica. The premise of both is just white people being miserable.

And she also tweeted, white people have stopped breeding.
