Yeah she has turned very...SJW-y. And some of it is just ridiculous shit.

For instance I reblog something from her about Lil Cricket, a gas station where we came from. I sang the jingle from the radio commercial everrryyyoonnneeee knows. Someone told her it was "OMG THAT IS SO RACIST!!!" Because the word cricket was once a derogatory term for black people. But I looked it up and while it was one, it was a term used in the midwest in like the 1800s. Also, there is literally no proof that that is the reasoning behind the name. So she told me I had to delete the post because it came from her blog. And she bitched at me until I did.

She has also gotten into some other stuff that I don't feel entirely comfortable with.

Also, I once had a confusing conversation with someone from England who was horrified at Australia's favourite cheese, they wouldn't even tell me what the problem was

Honestly, I know how coon has been used as a derogatory term. But there are also (ra)coon hounds and (ra)coon hunting. So I don't ever think of it that way.

That is really fucking stupid. You might be better off without her.

Maybe, but we have been friends since kindergarten. :(

That sucks. Hopefully she'll realize how ridiculous she's being in the future.

You could try to back off and get some space for a while. She may grow out of her SJW phase, like so many others do. Also, sometimes with a very long history of friendship, people start to take each other for granted. If she's going to stop talking to you over stuff like that, then forget it - time out for her.

There has to be give and take in any relationship, and if you've apologized, you've done your part. I don't know all the particulars, of course, but in my personal experience, there were times I just had to walk away. I don't want a friendship where I'm the only one who ever gives - my friendship is worth something too, and if they can't see that, then obviously they don't value it. And I won't waste any more time on that.

Sorry, my thoughts got long and rambly. Anyway, with luck, she'll grow out of the phase.

Well, that's just not... cricket.
