What a godawful feeling it must be knowing he can’t even hope for our government to put pressure on Erdogan. The Trumpists are probably taking notes. “Ooooh, take the family members of protesters hostage! What a great idea!”

There’s no defense for what Erdogan is doing to Kanter. And if there’s anything Kanter understands, it’s that.

There’s certainly nothing wrong with disagreeing with a piece of art, and I definitely see their point. But removing art because some people disagree with it is... worrisome to me.

This is really a shame. This is a work created by an individual who has clearly dedicated his professional and artistic life to understanding the plight of marginalized communities. He’s now being punished for it. This logic - that whites cannot understand the suffering of non-whites - is producing a new form of…

Co-opting? Marginalizing? Hate crime?

I remember that. What I’m saying is I wonder if you could get the top recruits to say fuck the sec and the big 10 and the pac 12, etc, and go to fcs schools on principle. It wouldn’t hurt football players NFL chances (see randy moss, Ben rothleisberger) and would make a powerful statement. I played at the school…

All those young African American FOOTBALL players should transfer since the State of Alabama does not respect what each monument represents to their ancestors and the current implications of what the state still holds dear...SLAVERY!!!

Far be it for me to criticize Richard Sherman, but if he’s still going to be grumpy with Wilson about SB 49 he might want to consider that they had a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter of that game and his number 1, bad-ass, we-never-take-blame-for-anything defense couldn’t hold it. 

According to witnesses, Sherman threw the ball back to Wilson and yelled, “You f—-ing suck!”

CNN contacted the Naval Postgraduate School about the reported plagiarism, and a spokesperson from there told them that standard procedure when an allegation of plagiarism is made is to launch an investigation into the thesis.

Come and get me, asshole.

And that is why Trump is in office, asshole. You clearly DO need me, and others like me. Ones who are tired of your idiotic insistence on making inequity a “white” thing. It isn’t, and you fucking well know it isn’t.

Any way you could have written that without insulting half your allies?

That completely wasn’t my point. You can blame white people in general (a flawed hypocritical argument anyway) but saying white Progressives are the problem is demonzing the wrong subset. To use an analogy, It’s like saying Democrats are the bigger racists. Are there racist democrats? Sure. But this is acting like…

White people yes but why blame progressives? That’s like blaming liberal New York for the fact that Donald Trump developed his racism there.

Yeah, uh, Hillary wasn’t a great candidate. Quite the opposite.

Here’s a person of color who’s going to say that Cornel West is full of shit on this topic as he’s always been, and that Bill Maher was 100% correct on this.

Absolutely, he was right and West was completely wrong. Hillary is not perfect, but she is not 45.

Really? That is what you got out of this video? Maher (who isn’t even Clinton’s biggest fan) was trying to point out how idiotic West’s year long crusade that Hillary Clinton was just like Donald Trump was. And how West’s continued stance of clinging to a myopic political view is unhelpful considering the current…

Whoever Hillary picked as AG would have been better than Sessions. Small steps forward is better than giant leaps backward.
