I think it’s pretty reductive to say that we should write off all of Wiesel’s accomplishments and say that his life’s work is “obviously a lie” because of one area in which his opinions were wrong.

You know, there are Jews who actually live in Jerusalem who were absolutely disgusted by Wiesel’s advocacy on behalf of the occupation. Are they “myopic”? Are they incapable of comprehending the horrors of the Holocaust, and the need “for the Jewish people to have a safe haven”?

He also actively suppressed efforts to recognize other groups victimized by the Holocaust, and actively, enthusiastically advocated for Israeli settlements to ethnically cleanse Palestinians.

Especially relevant because he supported oppressors like Israel and US interventionism in the Middle East. Wiesel was an asshole

If the FDA would like to recommend a better way to eat my feelings I’d love to hear it.

So you mean she does what every other male musician does?

Blake Lively simultaneously bores, annoys, and fascinates me.

I am shocked that finally a large scale, national outcry & response to rape culture is taking place and the questioned being asked is if we should do something. Didn’t see this article coming.

Rape Culture has taught me the following....

Do you honestly think there are many closeted trans men out there who are beating elite male athletes, despite having smaller lungs, hearts and skeletons?

Hormones are not the only physical differences between men and women. Adjusting hormone levels may affect muscles, fat distribution, and (in the long-term) bone density. But it will not affect skeletal structure, lung capacity, heart size, or the other advantages that biological males have over biological females.

I find it genuinely fascinating how terms have shifted in the trans community over the years. When my cousin transitioned in the ninties, it was all but expected that, barring finances, you would have the sex change surgery (or at least the orchiectomy ). Until then, it was expected that you would have to take…

You’d be sickened by the amount of men that would say they identify as a woman just win a medal.

We DEFINITELY need a world leader that ranks women (including his children) on a scale of one to ten, based on their fuckability, and thinks everyone should have a right to buy assault rifles. THAT will fix it!

Homophobia doesn’t sell. Gun control doesn’t sell. But a chance to be racist while maintaining the moral high ground? Well, that’s priceless.

Also I feel like Americas “killed by family” is usually husbands where Pakistan is more into “murdered by blood relatives”. Both are for not ‘bahaving’ of course.

The answer is, yes there are.

What change in the system is Bernie promoting now? I confess I am confused.

Is it greater democratic accountability in the nominating process? Because Hillary has more votes than he does. A lot more votes.

Is it elimination of superdelegates? Because right now the only way Bernie can win…

Duh, the real criminals here are the parents who dared to look away for a second. I’ve also been told by about a MILLION people on another thread that helicopter parents, not guns, are to blame for the UCLA student who killed their professor, then themselves. Don’t watch your kids close enough? Burn the witch! Watch…

??? Do u not understand that u live in a world that is materially inequal between men and women?

This is a very complicated issue that won’t be fixed just by legalizing it. I actually agree with him that legal prostitution commodifies women’s bodies (and to a smaller extent, men’s bodies) and that’s not ok with this feminist.
