To be fair to Hirsch, he did this back in 2015, when we didn’t know it was wrong to choke a woman out at a party and never apologize for it. Is it fair to judge historical figures by present-day standards?

Serves those bandwagon Las Vegas fans right. 5 years ago I bet most of them didn’t even know Vegas had a team.

They also bring it here from elsewhere. Remember the Darfur genocide? Where the Muslim-Arab Sudanese government was trying to wipe out the black Muslims in western Sudan?

I think North Africans and MEers learned anti-blackness before they got to the US.

The dude has an Egyptian surname. I guarantee you his racism isn’t because of American culture. (Racism against black people is a real problem in Arab countries, and Egypt is a top example.)

It’s embedded in American culture.

You are cutting it awfully close to assuming Islam is an immigrant. But, Arab people are enslaving black people of all religions in places like Libya, today. And South Sudan exists as a country, if only a failed State, because of Arab people committing genocide against black people.

That’s the biggest pile of horse-manure I’ve heard in a long time. Who teaches anti-blackness in America as you hit the shore??? I came to LA as immigrant, my kids learn about “African American History Month” in schools, they are taken to the African American museum to learn and bring home their essays about MLK... so…

Uhhh, lady, you need to learn a little about some other countries. Start by googling “european soccer racism”. Should give you a few days worth of reading. Let me know if you need any other direction.

So, to recap: If you are a sex worker, you are automatically a bad person and a liar. So if someone rapes you, robs you, or cheats you in some way, you should not be believed. A sex worker not to be believed, so you can commit any crime against them you want. That’s what I’m getting from Rudy.

There are helluva many times I’ve had to go to the bodega up the street with 5-6 dollars in mixed change. I will usually pre-sort the change by denomination, making it easier to count. And wait until there’s no one else in line before cashing out. I apologized the first couple of times. But she insisted that it wasn’t…

After the PSP and Vita, I don’t think Sony understands the handheld market as well as Nintendo. Sony always has superior hardware, but they end up failing in other areas.

Were you under the impression that people from the Middle East and North Africa were not racist against black people?

He’s really not. Compounded by the fact that ‘abandoned his first family’ makes any dude seem about as appealing as Steve Bannon.

If your reaction to being paid in change morphs from mild annoyance escalating right into verbal and physical assault, you need to be removed from society for awhile.

in case there is any doubt as to where I stand on this—and I may write about it at more length later—I think this whole thing is a TERRIBLE idea

This is just another example of Valve punting away all responsibility.

Women in videogames have no choice, because they’re fictional characters that have as much agency as their writers/creators/the script gives them.

So which attention whore won??

White allyship in the Civil Rights Movement started to fall apart when white people started having to confront the fact that they were racist, just not in the same way Bull Connor was racist. Until white people - or at least progressive white people - accept that they’re almost all at least passively racist, we’re…
