Were you ever forced to pick cotton? Were any immediate members of your family ever forced to pick cotton? How many millions have you earned throughout your career. Your life is fine. Get over it and ignore the pretty flower if you don't like it and dwell on the good you've got in your life. Geeze

That would be like a Jew asking how people feel about a gas oven in a kitchen. She’s a clown.

So does this display offend Czechs, Poles, Italians, and Irishmen who had to pick cotton after the Great Migration?

Only the black ones.

Most things on the internet are driven by clicks. If you don’t like some click whore seeking clicks from some bullshite then get off the internet.

Look, you've really reached to try and make a point that no one, who just saw the OP and commented, would agree with.

No one cares what an overweight, retired athlete thinks about or comments on, which is why she posted something semi-controversial to begin with. She posted something to get clicks and got them. She isn't dumb, and of course, she did it on purpose.

Who the hell walks around feeling decorations and commenting on textures?

Well you and your friend Beyonce's blond hair doesn't feel good either. Isn't that a form of black face? Cause I damn well know that hair didn't grow out of your head.

These people are fricking insuffereable. Get over yourself.

Cotton turned out to be the most costly commodity ever grown in this country.

She has never had to pick cotton, her father hasn't, her grandfather hasn't, her great grandfather hasn't. 160 years ago is a long damn time. This crap is ridiculous. Always playing the victim. I don't care.

It is a freaking plant. Get the hell over it.

This post is interesting because it kind of explains where we are with these anger-inducing, algorithm fueled social media rage cycles.

Serena Williams posts some dumb bullshite. In a normal world, people would be like “what is this stupid shite?” And then immediately just move on to something more interesting.

Instead we’ve built a machine where people read this post, then read the comments, then get into an argument about it. Now you’re spending some of your day arguing about some stupid bullshite Serena Williams - who is likely an uneducated, ignorant idiot just moronically thought about on a whim.

Nailed it. Many of the victims to this will continue down the pit of outrage clicking, reposting, and forwarding. It’s pathetic but part of normal moron life now.

"Alright, everyone. How do we feel about cotton as decoration?"

"Personally for me, it doesn’t feel great," Williams said in her Instagram Stories on Thursday, Sept. 25.


She's just attempting to stir up the Reddit crowd. That's likely the closest she's ever been to a cotton plant.
