That’s so shitty. I hope your brother gets to take courses and do whatever he wants.

I seriously don’t see how paying people with disabilities less isn’t illegal. How is that not discrimination? I don’t see why the woman with Down’s Syndrome who bags my stuff at the supermarket should be paid less than a high school student bagboy.

How does this even happen? This is the reason I don’t shop at Goodwill anymore. People think they can exploit the mentally challenged and it’s soo gross. Just like Applebee’s food.

Ooop. Seems like Rousteing is a family friend. That explains it.

Seconded.

I wonder why they didn’t hire FKA Twigs, this is right up her alley, considering she can actually vogue.

No, you don’t get it.

You’re pulling the same whiteknighting act on this article too? Look, people have legitimate reasons for not liking her. Doesn’t mean you need to stop being a fan, but when woc think something is racist, you as a white person don’t get to tell them it isn’t.

You called? c;

Whitesplain to me more!

If it makes you feel any better their parents are famous musicians, so they grew up around music.

Eh, I knew that I’d get so much crap that people would run me off. People have a tendency to feel personally attacked when you question something or someone they like. I don’t even have a vendetta, just an issue with some of her work.

:c Ableism is gross. Why would she take someone’s walking aids?

I don’t want Amy Schumer’s career to tank. I don’t want a disclaimer. But I would like people to think critically about the media they consume before declaring it “feminist” and refreshing. And while Amy may not have political power, she does have the spotlight. I’m so tired of white women comedians, musical artists,…

Essentially what I got from your post is you’re saying that because Amy doesn’t hold a position of power it’s not as bad as say Trump?

Okay so you know how rape jokes aren’t funny because they contribute to rape culture? This is similar. Overt racism isn’t the only kind of racism that exists. Besides, her racist jokes aren’t particularly clever. She could do so much better.

I really don’t see why people have issues with me questioning it. I’m not attacking Amy Schumer, but being critical of some of her work. I only do it because I wish people were more aware and responsible with the voice they have. It’s an icky feeling to watch media that denigrates you as a person, even if it is “good…

And I do too. Just not the racist ones.

Exactly. And Amy is funny in some respects. But her pulling out jokes that Latinos are rapists in this political climate where people like Donald Trump are running for president is super inappropriate. And that’s what I take issue with.

Yeah being a WOC in American society is very tiring. I’m tired of dealing with racism in all forms. And I don’t think it’s too much to ask that people who have media attention, who will talk about things like gun violence, speak out against racism instead of perpetuating it.
