I love how it's like: FOOD. *nom nom nom nom nom* WTF is this, *nom* Oh god, it's awful, I can't even look at you.

He's right; Shakespeare's rap albums were way softer.

I'm going to approach this from the other direction and say that in addition to everything else that's been said, it would ALSO be putting an unreasonable expectation on teenage boys to be responsible for managing the feelings of teenage girls, in addition to their own. Like, what the fuck?

"with the density of Ulysses and the verbal intensity of Shakespeare"

Yes, by all means, let's continue to perpetuate the idea that a girl is only worth how attractive she is to random men. Forget loving yourself, ladies. Only male opinions on your attractiveness matter. Honestly, it's good to tell girls this in high school so they don't get any dangerous ideas about thinking for…

"An increase in fat on hips, thighs and bottoms is not only natural but good for girls because it is appealing to males"

This is all I can come up with.

He missed the biggest point regarding the education athletes receive. Schools have admissions standards in order to ensure that their students have the necessary ability to succeed. However, a lot of athletes are being admitted to schools that they would not otherwise gain acceptance to. NCAA allows special waivers…

It's actually not a fact. The vast majority of scholarships give MEAL PLANS, which are only redeemable whenever the cafeteria is open, and at most, three meals a day. So you had a rough evening practice, and want to get something to eat at 9:15? Sorry, kid. Cafeteria's closed, and because you're on scholarship you…

As amazing as her methods are, I've always found Atwell's books annoying. In my mind, they presuppose that all teachers can adopt the methods she can use within a system she FOUNDED, which has smaller class sizes and more freedom...two things not found as often in the average public school.

Hey, does anybody have an opinion on this?

You literally just admitted that you think that some (not all, though... ) racism is the fault of hip hop - that racism that was centuries in the making is OK now because some Black men routinely call women bitches and hos on records. That Black people have to "earn" not having their Civil Rights violated by…

You're mistaking the frosting for the cake, the sizzle for the steak. You only hear the superficial elements.

Racist white Americans don't need rappers to teach them how to be racist, they have their parents and grandparents to do that.

Hip-hop is misogynistic, period. I say that as a fan of the genre. However, you are conflating several arguments into one, and you've capped it with a racist (and logically incorrect and still unsupported) statement that "anything made by black people is an instant sacred cow in the liberal [later comments have…

If by "instant sacred cow" you mean mocked, appropriated, and/or gentrified, then sure. Your insistence at blackness being untouchable is, I doubt, coming from a background of critical race theory, or even a genuine interest in the discussion of race, blackness, or misogyny in hip-hop. But you've got your pride and…

How to preemptively make your entire comment seem racist and out of touch:

nah literally just saying (like, in the post explicitly just saying) that black people tend to make better jokes about slavery than non-black people — not that people of any persuasion can't make fun of Morning Joe, or racists.
