After seven on-screen years of repairing their relationship and nine years since the series finale, THAT’S what she has to say about her father at his funeral? I don’t recall Lorelai being so insufferable and me-me-me before, but here we are.

Maybe because Negan reminds us a little too much of a certain person who was recently elected? I like to work out my anxiety by getting scared of imaginary zombies, not have it amplified by getting scared of an imaginary dictatorial narcissist.

I know a lot of people are uncomfortable, or incensed by, this topic, but the trashing of white women recently has been over the top. (That’s not to say these words are as harmful as the policies -and words- that people of color are facing right now.) Seems much of this trashing comes from “woke” white women who are

Seems as if the author also doesn’t understand just how difficult it is to get children of color born in the United States adopted. So for me Kristin Davis is being amazing in speaking about this.

In 2011, Kristin Davis adopted Gemma Rose Davis. In 2016, Davis realized that her whiteness only protects her and not her daughter. Great.

Yeah, at most this warrants a, “Great, now that you realize that, it’s time to make up for lost time.”

I get that, but I feel like “wokeness” (ugh) is like peeling away layers of an onion. I try really hard to empathize with my friends of color, but every once in a while they will say or experience something that I find shocking. And in response, I try to think about it, rather than denying it happened or getting

Kristin Davis made sure to say she was aware of her privilege before the adoption, is there a reason to think she’s lying?

Well, mocking your new ally because they haven’t always been your ally seems like a great strategic move, said nobody concerned about the future, ever.

Yeah, but doesn’t that apply to so many other things? Like poverty, disease, rape, tragedy. You don’t get it until it happens to you. That’s how humans learn. You don’t realize how devastating a cancer can be until it happens to someone in your family. Suddenly you want everyone to know the importance of early

Except that according to the quote, she did know about and acknowledge her white privilege before. She is just saying that now it’s hitting home on a whole different level because it’s her child. This wasn’t a situation where she was blissfully, negligently ignorant before and she’s only deigning to care now because

Isn’t this what we want, though, white people to “get it”? In the end, if they can have empathy then things will change for the better.

And the snark is coming from a white woman with no children because hey right, she knows better than the unwashed woman that adopted a child?

No. No she did not.

My outrage meter must be broken because it’s coming up 00000.

My particular favorite is that if Davis held out for or expressed a preference for adopting a white child, she would have also been raked over the coals for not being universal enough to see past her alleged white supremacy to adopt a non white child. So, she’s evil for adopting a black child without being woke

Yeah, that just seemed to me like Kristin Davis is a really loving mom and her daughter’s going to grow up knowing she’s valued and important.

What she said was great. This is just another example of how liberal/PC/SJW crap goes to far. I believe in all those things, but this, this goes to far. Jezebel, you are part of the problem.

Likewise.

Right?? For a feminist site, the writers sure do like to take catty swipes at women.
