Lyrics like “ready for war like I’m Russia” are weak angles of proving criminal intent. However, intricate details of crimes that match up should be allowed.

Disallowing all rap lyrics is dumb. Allowing broad lyrics used as hyperbole and braggadocio is also dumb.

I don’t mind this stuff for adult content but if it’s aimed at kids, no.

I canceled my D+ sub after 2 years and Disney will no longer get my money. The more overt they get, the more people will pay attention and tank them.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t blame cops for not wanting to be spat on and excuse the person ACTUALLY doing dumb sh1t.

It’s no wonder some cops are simply going to start throwing up their hands and say “Screw it!”. They can’t even protect themselves now because BigLake says a BREATHABLE hood is medieval.

No they don’t. They deserve as much respect as a non-LGBTQ artist. If they put out a good product, support them.

LGBTQ artists deserve no SPECIAL treatment. For instance, Lil Nas X is GARBAGE. Many of us loved Old Town Road. However, he has parlayed coming out gay to sales when the music is actually trash.

I don’t buy…

What’s conveniently left out of the narrative of “book banning” is where exactly the books are banned and the content in them.

Black people haven’t had the wool pulled our eyes about white people being treacherous @ssholes from slavery through Jim Crow. LGBT books don’t deserve spots on school shelves that have…

It’s called accountability. You know beforehand the debt you will incur and it’s not society’s job to make sure you pay it back. Pick a good major and you have fighting chance.

So, if you don’t get the difference between a person ACTUALLY murders people (like Ramos) and KR, you are just lying to yourself.

There was friggin’ video, people. CLEEEEEAAAARLY KR was attacked. This isn’t even up for debate. All this crap about “He went there looking for a fight” or “He wanted to kill people” doesn’t…

That article has a ton of racial triggering and points to no exact reason spit hoods are dangerous. You can breathe in them. If you are on drugs and struggling, you just might die simply cuz you are on drugs.

Spit hoods are not “bags”. Unlike George Floyd who had a knee on his neck and back by multiple officers, LaDamonyon simply had a spit hood which allows breathing but LaDamonyon was on drugs.

Investigate, sure, but don’t make this out to be a killing by police of a trans woman or that every trans woman that dies is an…

We already have guns and every white person doesn’t have guns either.

We already have guns, genius.

Name those laws.

Her take was superrrrr dumb since black people commit the majority of gun violence. I’m black. We already have guns. DUHHH.

I see that many are backing up her statement and failing badly. You aren’t ACTUALLY thinking.

That’s because you far left folks don’t make a lick of sense. You pass this off as a conservative thing but it’s really a majority thing, on the right AND the left.

Live life as a trans person? Cool. You don’t get to parlay that into EVERY walk of life because ultimately a trans woman is still a male.

The male part is…

It’s hilarious watching farrrr leftists make up anything they can to pass the view that Lia Thomas, a MALE, being viewed as a cheater that shouldn’t even be in women’s swimming is sort of far off right wing view.

I think some people on here live in a bubble and the MAJORITY don’t think Lia should be in women’s…

Use male and female then, if it makes you feel better. Woman has been used synonymously with female for centuries.

It’s not friggin’ hard to understand. No matter what pronouns and wordplay you want to use, the fact is that Lia Thomas is a MALE and you know, typically, males aren’t walking around the women’s locker room.

Goodness gracious.

Gotta love how The Root tries to have it both ways.

Netflix lost 200K subs because of The Closer? Uh huh.
If that was the case, they’d have lost them in Q4 2021.

Now, there’s concern over NF jobs as if black women (dingdingding trigger) wouldn’t lose their jobs if NF starts hurting, even if over Dave Chappelle.

The Root…

There will always be crime. You attack the problem from both ends: with cops and jobs.

You can’t “fix” crime.

Janelle Monae is also female.
I’m sure Janelle identifying as a nonbinary pansexual will help her career.
