I’m not sure if that’s true though. Ivanka purposefully invoked gender within her speech last night along the lines of the gender wage gap, among other things. Yet, as the author points out, the reasons for the gender wage gap existing-systemic discrimination at the intersection of gender, class, and race (because

The biggest hypocrisy committed by pro-lifers is on this particular front. They only care about the “child” up until it’s actually born, after which they couldn’t care less. Especially since those poor people supposedly leeching from the welfare system are often people of color, who are “inveterate thugs” and all

Hmm, I’m leaning more towards taking it out to a lake. We tell the series that we’re gonna get a little place, have a little cow and some pigs. Maybe some rabbits for the series to tend. Then we shoot it in the head.

They attribute Judge Thokozile Masipa’s decisions to the influence of Pistorius’s celebrity and wealth.

It’s thissssss close to “sub-human,” which, if you go back to the good ol’ days of Scientific Racism and Social Darwinism, was a semi-technical term used to describe Africans, First Peoples, and the Indigenous peoples of Australia (basically wherever the colonial project went). It’s crazy to see such an overtly racist

I’m kind of glad people are outing themselves as Trump supporters to be honest. Because that’s tantamount to outing yourself as a racist, homophobe, misogynist, and Islamophobe, among other things. It’s never been this easy to remove people from my life.

Honestly, I’m super stoked that Code Pink did this. It’s an overt embracing of allyship to immigrant communities (like Latin@ and Arab immigrants). That’s something we need more of these days, so kudos to them for leading the charge here.

Since you seem interested, I’d recommend looking into the history of the Radical Republicans (the “black-and-tans” scottmill refers to). They were some of the earliest organized establishment political agitators for the abolition of slavery, fought for harsh measures against slave-holders and former Confederates in

Well fucking played.

Lies. I’m lactose intolerant and I will gladly sacrifice the integrity of my bowels to get Mac n Cheese. It’s just that good.

Yeah honestly, he’s really trying to play up the “this happened because I’m a black man” angle and frame this around the fragile white women trying to take down the scary black man narrative. And as a man of color, I don’t buy it. Like Jen said down below, his writing and social media commentary are masturbatory and,

Just like that? Goddamn, send some of that magic my way friend!

Between the guest celebrities, the “star” delegates, and the candidate himself, it’s like a who’s-who of mediocrity and burnout. As such:

Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like she is pandering her to the otaku crowd here a bit. I question, much like the Japanese posters at the article’s links, how sincere her attachment to anime is.

You know, I was about to type out a post disagreeing with you and outlining why I find Taylor problematic on racial issues (and I still do for certain specific matters tbh), but I figured I’d do some research before I say anything. Lo and behold, I found this: http://www.mtv.com/news/2163993/t…

I kind of love that was your immediate response to him. Karma is a bitch like that

I just graduated from college and I had no idea who he was supposed to be emulating. Never saw the Hunger Games. I think it’s less age and more pop culture-ignorant...and I’m pretty okay with that actually.
