Hamas is not simply viewed as a terrorist organization. It is a terrorist organization, which has refused to allow for the existence of an Israeli state. I'm not here to be an Israeli apologist (lord knows that country has some fucked up policies), but Jezebel shouldn't be a Hamas apologist just because it's a Muslim…

She's in IRAN and is going to be an ENGLISH-speaking, WESTERN-EDUCATED, DIVORCED WOMAN on TELEVISION, speaking for HAMAS? Does not compute. I repeat. Does NOT compute.

Here's the quick quote from the official Liertarian Party Platform:

I'm with you. I think it can be useful to have labels just to simply things, just for clarity and to avoid really long explanations. But then we also have to keep in min that that's all we're doing: simplifying.

Yeah, I was going to say that it's possible that fewer people buy bisexuality as a legit orientation because it brings up a lot of problems with the concept of "orientation." Once you can accept that someone is attracted to both genders (especially if the attraction is not equally to both genders), you has to admit…

I think Freud said something like that about humans and bisexuality. But then again, who takes Freud seriously anymore...

I love Anonymous. I love them so much.

Yeah, all of these cases of "rape that didn't matter until the newsmedia picked it up" are really eroding my discomfort with vigilante justice. I know that vigilante stuff has the potential to go to really bad places, that the wrong people can be targeted, that mob mentality can get really scary.

I think be definition "ratchet" denotes a largely race-based caricture, what, back in my day we called "ghetto fabulous."

Uhhh... Forever 21 is owned by Bible-loving Korean Americans.

Co-opting is cheap, plus if what you're co-opting is part of the culture of a group that is more oppressed (not JUST the culture of a "black people", but the culture of the poorest, worst-educated, southern black population), individuals in that group won't don't even have the political or economic capital to be heard…

America was literally built on co-opting/theft. Never forget, there were people already living on this continent when Europeans first arrived.

Joss Whedon rocks, and I like what he did here. That said, I've never had a problem with the word feminist, nor have I ever been made to feel by others that there's something wrong with the word. I'm a feminist, always have been. When I started dating my husband, we were teens, and when I asked "are you a feminist?"…

If this was some female celeb of Bieber's age there is no way this story would be presented with such an innocuous sounding tagline.

THE BIEBER VIDEO DOES NOT WORK FOR ME!

I think that's kind of the point, right? He's trying to piss those people off by saying, "this symbol is now being appropriated by me, and I'm black. Neener neener neener." It's kind of funny in that light.

Kanye is starting to become a magnificent piece of unintentional performance art as he tries to get as many people to think he's a moron as possible.

I am ashamed to say no, but days later. It was the shitty ice cream cone that broke the shitty relationship's back.

Yeah, I obvi don't know what she's been through in her life, but that sounds like "my parents got divorced and it was really hard on me, and you don't see me getting offended, so..."
