This kind of bullshit in-fighting is precisely why the conservatives — who, despite all their faults, are ace at holding their noses in the interest of presenting a solid front to their opponents and attaining their goals— manage to get so much fuckery done while the liberals argue about everything under the sun.

There’s at least 3 top comments hypothesizing that that he cries after sex, and the same for commenting that Tom and the writer shared food. It’s gross that people think that emotional connection between humans is something worthy of criticism. If you have never shared food then you need to go to therapy, same if you…

I am baffled by the negative comments. I too thought it was a sweet article, and he sounds like a sweet guy. Plus the “Under Pressure” lyrics he quotes at the end are some of my favorite lyrics/song moments of all time (even 30+ years after I first heard the song).

Or, because he gives a shit, he’s using CNN’s public platform to show that some people in government are fighting for healthcare

Holy fuck you’re stupid. Like, I want to say something sarcastic here but you are just dumb as shit and you’re probably reading this going like “how make tiny shapes into sounds for my brain??”

The Bernie Bro insult was particularly problematic as it is using gendered language in an election when she was condemning gendered insults. It removed a lot of the moral highground when this election ought to have been all about claiming the moral high ground. It was dumb. Worse, it was a dumb recycling of “Obama…

Blaming everyone but the candidate who didn’t visit Michigan, release her speeches, stand with Standing Rock, and, yes, who lied in her emails about standing with workers against the Columbia Trade Pact while behind the scenes encouraging Senators to support it. Sorry babe. This is all on her. And the people who voted…

Hopefully she doesn’t and you can all stop blaming those things that barely mattered.

The “so what” is that causes for people of color and especially women of color often go unsupported, therefore unnoticed, and therefore the battle for them drags on. Just saying “so what” is a total slap in the face to women of color who can’t get white people to care when their children are being shot dead in the…

Except... and I say this as a white woman, white women get offended when you call them out.

But there have been SO. MANY “first steps.” If you don’t know that racism is a problem, you haven’t been paying attention. It’s like how ONLY after Standing Rock, white people have realized that - gasp - Native Americans get treated pretty shitty (in ways that have nothing to do with water). Black people getting…

This absolutely can/should be a first step, and MUST be a first step, as the intersectional feminist movement needs more bodies. It’s the job of the white ladies who are already doing or planning to do what Kara has outlined to be patient/encouraging to the white ladies who aren’t there yet. WOC have the right to be…

Kara - I know you know this but I wwant to put it out there in writing before or in time with anyone who will call you cynical or say you should appreciate this action.

Your three examples are not great.

Jesus Christ, thank you.

From the way sone of these commenters are freaking out, i thought lakeith had snatched the mike out of lasally’s hand, slobbed on leslie mann, and took a shit on stage.

It is every upper-class person, man or woman, black or white, who feels like the rules don’t apply to them.
