I'm confused. Parents are reviled because they don't discipline their kids. They're reviled if they punish them. (You can't spank them!)

That's so sad. Poor dude. And poor ladies that got strung along in the meantime.

Let me be super clear about this: I think everyone should be allow to love whomever they want and be a religious person. I don't think that religious sect of any kind should discriminate against gay people. With that being said, I understand how and why a person might decide they want to live within their communities…

I have a big extended Mormon family, and one of my favorite cousins is obviously gay. He's sort of close to coming out, but he believes so strongly in Mormon doctrine that he can't quite make the jump. He has had 3 (3!!!!) broken engagements. I don't quite know what to do for him.

Has anyone asked Azealia Banks whether she actually requires or desires this kind of "support" let alone an apology extorted by slut-shaming faux-gressive doxxers? Because oddly enough, she manages to speak loud and clear on her own behalf.

I wouldn't say that "going after" someone who has clearly appropriated a culture and then turned around and insulted issues involved with it is wrong... just the way they're threatening to do so.

So I looked up what Iggy Azalea said about Eric Garner and it looked like people were just mad because she didn't say anything? Did I miss something? Because, if that's all it is, I get the idea that if she is a white woman profiting off black styles of music she has an additional responsibility to show solidarity…

However, as a Black woman I have SO MANY THINGS TO BE FUCKING OUTRAGED ABOUT LATELY, that I won't shed one single tear for feminism, humanity, or Iggy Australia if her sex tape is leaked by anonymous. Boo fucking hoo.

This is why I don't like and will never like Anonymous. Vigilantism is only ever cool in fiction. If only they'd stuck to victimizing rapists (who, apparently, are no worse than girls who have sex on camera?) with their unethical horseshit, I was vaguely resigned to their existence. Their anger toward rapists was…

But punishing her for one societal issue with another counteracts any "good" it would do. Punishing a woman's sexuality is usually the first go to, and it isn't right and like Isha pointed out.

Iggy Azalea sucks, but.... Yeah, this is a seriously messed up way of 'punishing' her. It only works if we assume that the sex tape is showing her doing something 'wrong' or 'shameful'. She's just having private consensual sex. It has nothing to do with her racism.

Yeah... It kinda veered toward ethics in gaming journalism on that one.

Computers will become self aware before Iggy Azalea does

That they're comparing Iggy's (supposed) sex tape to Bill Cosby drugging and raping multiple women over decades is appalling.

Welcome to the worlds of journalism and activism.

I just keep thinking about how fucking easy it would've been for Erdley to figure out that there was something wrong with Jackie's story. Even with the university not wanting to talk to her. But instead she went for a splashy story and now rape victims everywhere are left holding the bag.

Wow, are you for real? They way you said it, it sounds like you're pretending these are just 2 random innocent girls being punished for no good reason. They tried to kill her. It's not about taking away her suffering; it's about justice, it's about taking violent psychopaths off the street, and getting them the help…

Oh fuck you. The victim deserves justice, and the knowledge that the two girls that betrayed her and attempted to slowly and ritualistically murder her would not be able to harm anyone else, or at the very least she would never have to see them again.

I agree. It seems a little fishy, TBH. I know this is terrible, but I wonder if her family is playing up the mental illness diagnosis in an effort to get her off. The only reason I say that is because I am familiar with the town where they live and it's a rich, extremely conservative suburb of Milwaukee. I could just…

Absolutely shameful that people here are defending these psychopaths. What is wrong with you. Would you like these kids released and living in your neighbourhood?
