I feel like a person whose introduction to porn was their rapist abductor kind of doesn't have the most level starting point for a conversation about the subject. But maybe that's just me.

it’s not the words “SORRY USA AND WORLD” written in crayon on a piece of light green construction paper.

That he is a rapey motherfucker? I mean, did you even read what he's been up to the last few years?

Exactly. Metzger’s got zero clue about the dynamics of rape. Unfortunately he’s a grandstanding loudmouth whose platform has been exponentially raised up by his association with Schumer’s show.

Yeah, if I found out a friend was harassing women online and creating fake Facebook accounts posing as these women in order to defame them, I’d kick them to the curb in a heartbeat. Just as I have with friends that went on terrifying, borderline-violent racist rants. It’s not that hard.

No, she did not fire him ETA for this or anything else. She first said he was no longer working for her, she then tweeted that since the show was cancelled this was technically true, and now she says she’s touring and Comedy Central hasn’t renewed so they’re not working on another season but could be in the future…

Here’s the thing. She can’t call herself a feminist and still support people like Kurt. This isn’t the first time she’s said or done problematic stuff. She really should immerse herself in intersectional feminism and the movement to stop sexual assault/rape to better understand these issues. I’m sick of celebs hiding…

Did she actually fire him? They already wrapped filming for the next season of the show. She has danced around if he will be back when they come back for season 5. I honestly think she's hoping this will die down and she can still employ him even if it's only behind the camera.

Did she fire him? She says she didn’t in a tweet. He’s not working for the show right now because she’s touring and they’re not making it at the moment.

Not at all what I’m saying. I’m saying that I don’t like her equivocation. I’m saying that her actions don’t align with her words. Hell, her words don’t align with her words.

Actually yeah, I do. I also don’t eat at Chik-fil-A or watch Woody Allen movies. It’s really not that hard to not give my money to people who I find repugnant.

While everything he saw and had exposure to was most likely orchestrated (which he acknowledges) it is still a way to gain insight into a country and culture that few will ever get to experience. Every country objectively does something bad, is there a level or threshold that every human is beholden to? Should…

It’s not a matter of it being “most likely orchestrated”, it’s more like going to Epcot at Disneyland. Literally everything he sees on the tour is staged and managed to such an insane degree that it’s essentially a cartoon. He’s talking about gaining insight based on dealing with people who have to be friendly and…

The problem with this argument is that literally nobody thinks the people of North Korea are somehow “bad.” This isn’t some cultural misunderstanding, nobody’s sitting there going “Gee, man, I don’t know about those 5 year-old North Korean dirt farmers. They seem pretty sketchy.”

Example of a slim, credible male news source:

Commenting to bump. Metzger is truly vile and I hope everyone has the chance to read his “paper” trail to realize the extent of his awfulness.

Isn’t he though? Someone argued with me back and forth on another thread, insisting that I was being childish for wondering if Metzger would get fired from Amy’s show (before this article came out, obvs). Childish? Metzger, on way more than one occasion, has proven himself to be a misogynistic shitheel. He has no…

Honest question: Do you refuse to watch Roman Polanski movies, listen to R. Kelly songs, or watch a basketball game featuring Kobe Bryant?

You'd be surprised how much art/entertainment is made by people who aren't rapists, abusers, and pedophiles.

It’s really not that hard if the principle is important. Most people really only give lip service to stuff and then punt on actual action. It’s kind of why this country is circling the drain. Nobody really cares until it’s on their doorstep.
