I just finished it, and honestly, I don’t see that much there.

Huh. I legitimately expected them to be worse than that.
Do not root for the cubs. The cubs have been butt. The cubs are butt. The cubs will always be butt. It is known.
Vin? He’s seen his team win the World Series three times this decade.
Nope, nothing fishy about a 36 year-old guy suddenly transforming himself into one of the best starters in baseball. Baseball be crazy!
Counterpoint.
You forgot Meteor Strike and getting hit by a bus.
I feel like you’re slipping into respectability politics, which I’ve never personally been a fan of. Because I find the concept insidious. In fact, the older I get, the less I like that concept. Because my self-worth isn’t tired to what the majority thinks about me, especially when they’re not around. It’s about what…
Yet the dominant culture does it to each other. Friends call each other names and while you might be able to argue about the types of words (note: they used nigga not nigger which is what the “n” word is, it’s worth noting they are used differently regardless of your personal feelings towards either word) perhaps you…
You sound like you got issues with forms of Blackness that don’t conform to your ideal...which frankly seems to be influenced by white supremacy. Nothing they did outside of the white gaze seemed uneducated...you’re projecting. Also who cares what white people think we do? Under their lens everything we do is bad if…
The show just made it seem like...even though we try to behave like educated adults in front of white people, we revert to stereotypes as soon as their backs are turned.

I have watched the episode, and I think OP is kinda trippin. Like I think she’s referring to the fact that when Issa and molly are talking to each other they speak in AAVE and act kinda goofy, but when they are in front of thier white coworkers they are super straight laced. Like alot of black people in real life.…
It isn’t Hillary that’s so bad. It’s her sycophants.
Let’s not make “alt-Left” a thing, please and thank you. We’re bleeding heart libs already, and damn proud of it. We are not the opposite-but-same of those racist fuck bags.
Her dad sounds like the real life version of Lonnie Byers
It’s 2016 and we’re lauding someone for being a civil rights advocate. I don’t disagree, but it is incredible to me (I’m over 60) that this would be an issue today. Sad but true.
I assume they’re planning a similar excursion to Harlem sometime soon.
