Jennifer Garner used her best baby-talk voice to scold Lindsey about how she should use Capital One miles when she flies to see Ben.

So... what you’re saying is, you think you should be allowed to spout bullshit and not suffer any consequence for your opinion which you shared freely.

I don’t think it seems all that strange. They’re powerful enough that they can get away with controlling the narrative at all times, so why wouldn’t they? I think you’re overlooking the fact that this approach works for them. Part of why people are so enraptured by Lemonade is that it’s such a rich narrative that…

He was reaching for his gun permit. It’s not about an individual racist but a system that doesn’t value black lives and is completely terrified of black people.

I’ve been suckered a few times myself. For certain I can take a contrarian position and there are a few who react poorly when I don’t fall in line with their positions.

I really don’t read the general sentiment being “Good on you, Jay-Z for seeing the error of your ways and turning it around!” so much as “Glad he admitted what he did and spurred this type of convo/self-reflection for men.”

Yea but also I’m sure I’d want to control the narrative... like share what I’m comfortable with but not have to answer questions about my private life. I’ve just never seen as big of a problem with it as most people have.

As a Canadian, can you name an incident of U.S. police brutality in recent history that looked racially motivated to you? Also, in an instance where say, a person of Portuguese descent was accused of racism against a First Nations person, would you just say, “not possible, everyone involved is ethnic, nothing to see…

I do not know where you are getting this story from that the license was handed over that is a lie. Yanez asked him for registration and license. The first papers he gave him were proven to the registration. He was then still following that initial instruction reaching for his license which most men keep in thier…

How the fuck do you trolls get enblackened so fast?

I don’t know exactly what that was about. Someone else on here probably knows. He has already handed the cop something. Perhaps it was his DL or perhaps something else. There might have been something else he was reaching for. In a traffic stop there can be potentially several things you must show the cop (insurance,…

A) Many MANY different races (Hispanics, East Asians, South Asians) that are non-white have demonstrated racism against African-Americans

Oh, Canada. My sweet summer child. You know nothing of implicit bias or policing tactics developed long ago to keep a system of chattel slavery alive. I know your Netflix selection up there is limited so you can’t watch 13th, so start by reading The New Jim Crow.

Anti-Blackness affects all kinds of people, whether they are named Jeronimo or not. Even Black police officers participate, since that’s a big part of how our police force was meant to work. Yes, it’s about race. This rarely happens to white people and happens to Black people often enough that we prep our children on…

Nope. It sounds like you are working with limited knowledge here. There is audio of the entire thing plus dashcam footage of the whole thing but you can’t see Philando. Then Diamond starts recording after he was shot. He was absolutely not reaching for a weapon. Moreover, the weapon was still down in his pants when…

The issue isn’t whether or not this specific officer is a KKK cross burning swastika racist. The issue is the inherent and often unaware bias that exists among most Americans that gets distilled and supported in police forces. Police react to threats, and if you’ve grown up in a culture that frames black people as a…

Is there some sort of middle ground here? They wouldn’t be the first celebrities to try to explore genuine life shit through the insane gauntlet of PR/branding/etc. And at that height a high a level of exposure too?

If being able to sing was the same thing as being able to act, there weren’t be so many musicians who flopped trying to cross over into movies. Also, I think you’re delusional if you think Jay-Z would allow a woman to beat up on him just for show.

Even though Beyonce was young when she met Jay Z, nearly every woman has a story about a guy who treated her like shit and then he magically had this calling to be a better person when she walked out the door. It ain’t new. It ain’t innovative. It ain’t unique.

I took it more like he was surprised that he literally felt the pull of not wanting her to leave and couldn’t believe how emotional he was over it - because before B he just looked at women as I don’t know what.
