Because in their profession, they are women of privilege. We hold them accountable for the choices they make, as society holds us accountable for all of our choices. If no actress had worked with Allen, he’d had had no stories to tell. That would be the end of his career. This should have happened years ago. Honestly?…

“Can we move the fuck on?”

It’s not like the United States ever admitted more than a shamefully low number of Iraqis and Afghans before Trump - so the buck certainly doesn’t stop with him. Lets be honest here and give credit where it is more than due: The US doesn’t own what it breaks, it never does, it always outsources those costs of its…

You should tell the Yemeni owners of these bodegas that. They’re so stupid they didn’t listen to OMG!PONIES!. Why oh why did they not buy KFCs in the middle of Alabama? Why???

“he’s just putting whiny commercials on TV that the Presidency is being “attacked” and no one likes him.”

Didnt boner bring out a Israeli billionaire to speak on the floor like he had a gun to his head. does anyone remember that? who’s denying that Isreal has influence over US policy?

Holy false equivalency, batman!

So instead we should listen to bigots like Dershowitz? Does the fact that NONE of the “suspicion” has come from a credible source not matter? Or are we just going to ignore the blatant Islamophobia and racism that’s sometimes been a problem in the American Jewish community too?

Now, that’s just silly! They’re not smearing a prominent, charismatic Democrat with a real vision for America that’s inclusive and can solve our problems just because he’s black!

That is a much better comparison. But Ellison didn’t even follow Farrakhan though—he just went to an event created by Farrakhan because he thought the event was a good idea and bigger than the man. So Ellison apologized profusely even though he wasn’t a part of Farrakhan’s actual group. Still not enough because BLACK…

No one is defending Farrakhan, slugger. I read her comment as criticizing the false equivalency the original poster is trying to establish and the mouth breathing troglodytes cosigning it.

Still can’t watch the news, so I don’t know what’s going on here, but I just came to say that Rep. Ellison is beloved in MN. Even the people who hate his politics still respect the guy because of his absolute devotion to his district and his state. He has deeply held and very strong convictions, but he is not an…

That’s stupid, though. I don’t even like Farrakhan, but to say that he’s ever participated in activities against Jewish people that are comparable to activities the KKK has participated in against Black people and Jewish people and lots of other types of people is simply not factual. So once again, someone’s “views”…

Not sure I follow your logic here; I’m supposed to champion a politician who represents a political party that advocates for apartheid (not my term, one that is now fairly common in Israeli political discourse) just because there are no “viable” other parties? Sorry, no can do—clearly the entire political class in…

At risk of being tautological, my friend: secular settlements are settlements. All of them are on stolen land.

It’s strange that she has such a lofty opinion of Hillary Clinton, given that Clinton is a warhawk who has enthusiastically supported every war and intervention in the region and who is, furthermore, already sucking up to Netanyahu well before she is even President elect.

She’s a representative of a party that has brutally oppressed and carried out war on another people. The Labor party of Israel has been at the forefront of the settlement enterprise. None of this is addressed in this feather-handed interview.
