Memo to the motherfuckers coming at me about Nate Parker:

So if we are gonna get into it, lets get all the way into it! What about Jamie Foxx with Tom Cruise’s ex wife and doing his damn best to hide that shit! Or what about Halle Berry who had babies by two different white men? Or what about Tamera Mowry and her white husband ? What about Garcelle Beauvias and her white…

At yet you fools didn’t get the message behind the distraction as the video states, concentrating on his love life has kept you from seeing the message. Stick to the talking points, stop watching them dance and get to the real matters, people are dying, stop wasting time.

BTW, this isn’t just a high school issue. Blerds aren’t getting checked for PERIOD. Not in HS, College, anywhere. I’ve personally done ok, but I was also athletic and artistic, I know plenty of blerds who aren’t and are not being checked for. Why anyone care about the dating preferences of people they’re not into I…

I think that’s my issue with this piece. Since it’s simplifies the issue as being merely “If you didn’t date a black girl in highschool, it’s probably because you’re an asshole.”

So we’re just going to ignore that the OP compared blerds to a white supremacist murderer? Because there are 3 full ass paragraphs comparing blerds, who have not engaged in mass murder, to a white supremacist who killed multiple people and inspired multiple murders. Really hard to hold a conversation on relationships…

And this is my other problem here: You’re clearly looking for a fight rather than any sort of discussion. And the way you’re coming at me, my immediate instinct is to tell you to go fuck yourself. Not because you’re a woman—but because I think you’re kind of an asshole.

Yeah. Like...there’s a lot to be written about this video, and the commodification of black suffering to release a music video you’ll make money off of, and what this video is trying to say and what it isn’t trying to say. But saying that Glover can’t say anything about black experiences because he has a white wife?…

I was going to say that. It really makes no difference what he says. He’s in for one term and that’s it. What I’d like is for him be the just gung-ho about pushing for social changes because he doesn’t have to care about fund raising or re-election. He just got elected and he knows he’s on his last term.

yeah, that’s my argument. you ball-licker.

no, moderates are not good. moderates lick corporate balls.

Except American moderatism is extreme to the rest of the modernized Western world. We’re probably the most right-wing country in the West.

It’s not extremist NOT to vote with fascists destroying the country.

White moderates have never been useful.

Jesus Christ...

“Every time that there is something good in this world - know that black women probably did it first, said it first, seent it first.”

smug asshole =/= adult.

Please read the details of history. Sanders signed on to bill because of the provisions it made to protect battered spouses. He then went to the House floor to denounce all the terrible parts of the bill, including privatizing the prisons to profit off the incarcerated (which exploded the prison population). If you…

He did energize PoC. He energized PoC under 30.
