This seems more an issue with the interviewer than Hillary. I do like that Chelsea wasn’t going to play the interviewers game and was direct.

This is classic TERF/transphobe tactics: find the most extreme possible example, get someone who is casually ok with trans folks to go along with it, and then try to portray them as agreeing with you. Hillary Clinton has actually worked to measurably improve trans lies, I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt…

Kanye famously overhauled Kim’s wardrobe when they first got together. He told her that her style was tacky, and he threw out her entire wardrobe while she cried. Then, he restocked her closet with what he liked and even dictated how her hair and makeup should look before she left the house.

Wow you could not have chosen worse examples for your incorrect argument/assumptions. Who do you think colonized India and Africa? Ever heard of apartheid? It in fact existed in Africa, instituted by white people. Also, ever been to China as a white American? Check into it. Are you playing dumb? Or just ignorant?

OMG trying to explain what ‘white privilege’ means to my family is a fucking chore. White privilege doesn’t mean that white people don’t have to work hard for what we have, or that white people’s poverty doesn’t exist. Its that white people’s poverty is seen through a more sympathetic lens. That our hard work is…

Ugh. Shit like this is why I roll my eyes when people say things like “I can’t wait for the Boomer generation to die out so we don’t have to deal with this kind of nonsense anymore.” Um, their kids are JUST LIKE THEM, if not worse. 

Ugh, these kids. I haven’t read the book, and maybe there is some objectionable stuff in there, but do they understand that talking about white privilege is talking about society and not about white people (although, as a white dude, I can categorically say that white people in general suck)?

isn’t white authors, directors, writers, teachers, (this list can go on forever. lest’s just say people [look, a generalization]) making a lot of generalizations about the majority of POC the normal condition? do you see a lot of book burnings?

Damn this hit a bit home, the majority of my coworkers are white. Lately they have been joking about their white privilege. For example “oh I have WHITE PRIVILEGE, so I have a car.”

If “cancel culture” is such a thing, then why are we still hearing from this walking penis?

Before all this came to light, was he not the smuggest, smarmiest twat on TV, anyway? I can’t help but judge...he seems like this privileged seedy little annoying guy who became prestigious and powerful and could not believe the p**y he could get. He has this annoying little dog humping on your leg quality. I really…

He’s straight up garbage. He is the worst and it’d be great if people could get get on the right side of history and call him a monster. It’d be a first time but he’s also the fucking worst.

Is ... Is Matt Lauer really blaming his daughter for the very vile, very misguided statement he issued yesterday?? 

I am so happy that they waited until this season to address his death. An episode like this would have stuck out like a sore thumb in the final episodes of last season. It got me thinking how I’ve watched Luke Perry on TV for the vast majority of my life, its weird. Also you could tell that the cast really cared for…

She’s also almost assuredly barred from dragging him in the media by the terms of their divorce, specifically the custody stuff. You can’t be dragging your ex if it could be seen as alienating your kids from him or you could lose your kids. Even if everything you say about him is true.

“I’m always super surprised by people married to predators who don’t seem to realize it. How much interalized misogyny must someone have before they accept some behaviour is beyond the pale.”

She originally filed for divorce in 2006 and accused him of “cruel and inhumane” treatment in the divorce papers. She also said he exhibited “extreme anger and hostility” toward her.

She divorced him, people shouldnt be asking her about this. She isn’t required to have an opinion on her ex -husbands criminal behavior. 

I have been really shocked at the number of very well educated people I’ve encountered this year who say they aren’t getting the flu vaccine because they don’t want to get sick.  As in the vaccine will give them the flu.  I hardly know what to say in response.

I think that some people’s propensity to call every case of the sniffles “the flu” makes people underestimate how serious real flu is. I’ve had the flu twice. I got pneumonia both times, which is a common complication. My sister’s friend’s daughter has brain damage after my sister’s friend got the flu when she was…
