100% Agree. Our most famous (White, male) American heroes owned people and treated them like animals, raped women, tried to exterminate the Native Americans, imprisoned US Citizens unjustly, assassinated other U.S. citizens clandestinely, created our own home-grown terrorist group (the KKK), etc., etc. Do I agree with…

If people are going to begin erasing civil rights leaders because of controversial views they held, we may as well turn civil rights history as a whole into an optional, removable pamphlet in history books.
So superdelegates should ignore the part where Clinton is ahead by 2.5 million votes in the popular vote (more now, what with New York and all) as well as in pledged delegates and do what you want because... well. Because you want them to, basically? That makes a ton of sense. So much for all of that talk about “the…
Bernie does better because he’s not a known entity and has never once been subjected to the republican attack machine. When they finished with him, he will be unelectable. The guy took his honeymoon in the Soviet Union, praised Fidel Castro, calls for revolution and raising taxes. They will turn him into Joseph Stalin.
Honestly, Jezebel and Gawker are blatantly pro-Sanders in their coverage.
Mayor of a town of 40,000 doesn’t address almost any federal issue. Clinton was an active and involved First Lady who shaped a number of legislative initiatives. So yes, I think that experience is more applicable. And if you want to try to make it about feminism, I would have preferred Clinton’s first lady experience…
As a die hard fan of the original movie and Stand Alone Complex, this is sickening. Major MOTOKO KUSANAGI is clearly Japanese. IDGAF what they’re bullshit weak ass racist marketing reason was FOR ANY OF THIS. This sends the clear message that Hollywood executives would rather pay a team of animators to FUCKING CHANGE…
They aren’t made to look white, they just look subjectively white to you. Because in the US white is the default, unless you put some racist caricature like yellow skin or slanty eyes, people will see them as white. I mean people see yellow skinned, blue afro haired Marge Simpson as white.
No, this is what happens when self-centered white people and Americans see white as the default. To the Japanese, anime characters look Japanese. To Americans, anime characters look white. In regards to GITs, if you bothered to even watch the series, you would know that nearly all Caucasian characters (e.g. American…
Saw this yesterday and I’m just not feeling ScarJo as Major Kusanagi. Still don’t see why they couldn’t have picked an Asian actress. Though I also think that trying to do a live-action adaptation aimed at a wider American audience is a huuuuuge mistake. Ghost in the Shell is fantastic and has a lot of action, but…
Sooooo a white woman named Motoko Kusanagi......
My boyfriend and I were talking about this last night- just because the characters look white, doesn’t mean they’re meant to be white.
Not as awesomely awkward as City-Bayern would be.
They don’t promise not to make a difference. They promise to act as an emergency brake in the event Democrats elect a lunatic or something crazy happens on the eve of the convention.
Yes, because the black community never talks about it. Ever. It has nothing to do with white people only paying attention to the back community when they’re involved in the discussion.
Look, I’m just going to say this: if Hillary could control Bill, I think the history of our mid- to late-’90s would be very different.
Never talk about incest, child pornography, abduction of children, child murders, child rapes, children accidentally killing others with unsecured guns, US terrorist acts, insurance fraud, police brutality convictions, hate crimes, mass murders, inside trading, malpractice suits and convicted politicians.
Is he actively trying to sabotage Hillary’s campaign? Because that’s the only explanation I can think of. He’s not a stupid man.
I don’t think we’ve been trying to do it my way for decades. I think we’ve been desperately trying to keep it all from slipping out of grasp for decades.
