I don’t see her taking on this sort of role, at all.

13 years? Well, it’s her fault for not being born a wealthy white man who raped an unconscious woman behind a dumpster.

That white dude in the foreground is hilarious.

He can hug all the flags he wants. Just don’t give him a puppy.

I wouldn’t put it past (Australian) Nick Cave to do such a thing.

Oh my god, he dances exactly like Drake.

This is all so unnecessary. Why don’t we just give them some kind of symbol to pin on their shirts to indicate that they aren’t like the rest of us?

Freed black people stayed in the South because that’s where their families were. Same reason why most runaways hung around in the area or went back to previous owners. They weren’t cool with slavery; they just didn’t want to be separated from the ones they loved. Kinship was literally all they had.

Their status is a valid part of the discussion and brings up legitimate questions of how seriously their accusations are being taken and should be taken. It’s not off the table. And you literally repeated in one of your own posts the notion that they might be lying because they’re trans... but you don’t like someone…

“I just don’t really go out of my way because it doesn’t affect my life.”

Trump isn’t getting any more shit done than anyone else; he’s just getting different shit done—a lot of it very bad shit—and we have yet to see who his tactics actually benefit. And look, I’m no expert, but I do my best to follow what’s going on, and I just wouldn’t attribute most of the good shit you think is getting…

Yep. I’m so tired of it. Why can’t we just have our damn moment?

Well, it’s definitely not something I would characterize as a smackdown. Ball doesn’t seem unhinged or combative to me. He just seems unable to piece his thoughts together coherently and becomes frustrated that Cuomo isn’t getting him. But I don’t get him either, so *shrug*

Thanks for dismissing my earlier comment.* Btw, I am not a member of the “Beyhive” (not sure how Beyonce is responsible for them, though???); I am a person who goes hard for black women because no one else does. I appreciate her for her painstaking dedication to turning out a superior product, her insistence on…

“At the risk of keeping myself grey for all eternity, *I don’t think* Beyonce is as great as everyone thinks she is.”

I don’t have anything useful to add to the discussion at hand, but I noticed before I took a break from Kinja a few weeks ago that there were a bunch of dubious accounts responding to my posts using poor English and shallow rhetoric to strongly condemn white people, some even calling for “rising up against” and/or…

This was obviously cross-posted on Jezebel, and there should be fair warning for that. I do not need another person to explain to me something that is *in* what I wrote. This isn’t exactly whitesplaining, but it is the white equivalent of mansplaining. A proverbial “Actually...” What do you call that?

Cool story.

Finish. Reading. The. Paragraph. Next. Time.

I didn’t make a mistake. Finish the paragraph next time.
