“Calling a white women Becky isn’t racist for the same reason that calling a white person a cracker isn’t racist.”

“Amirite”—what is that? Like a mineral derived from vibranium or something?

So 4realBeckys plus 4fictitiousBeckys equals zero Beckys? That’s like saying that 3 cats plus 3 dogs equals 6 dogs. I don’t know where you learned math, but I’m guessing you took the short bus to get there.

If there is no God, then where did all of the matter in the universe come from? Is it possible for something to come from nothing? I don’t know. But after reading your comment, I see that it’s possible for nothing to come from something. I see something there, and yet it’s nothing. I’m not sure what the implications…

Very clever. Your parents helped you with that, didn’t they?

“It’s been in the Top 100 names...especially for white people.”

Referring to white women as “Becky” would be like white people referring to black women as “Shaniqua.” It’s racist when they do it, and it’s racist when you do it. Grow up and stop making race relations worse by being obnoxious.

“He is going to have to explain why he championed a 1994 crime bill that set the stage for mass incarceration of black people across the nation.”

Sounds like a pretty obnoxious crowd. They didn’t come to hear what he had to say. They came to hate what he had to say no matter what it was. The only black woman problem Sanders has is that he’s not a black woman.

Important stuff. That’s some fantastic journalism right there. Who needs The New York Times when you have The Root? (My fellow black people, please tell me this isn’t the only place you get your news.) 

“Black activists say hate speech policies and content moderation systems...fail the very people Facebook claims it’s trying to protect.”

Carolyn Wysinger is a moron. Her comment about white men was a dumb generalization, and generalizations about groups of people are the foundation of racism. Write like a racist, get treated like one.

I never thought that the things Bun B raps about were fake. The only thing I ever thought about Bun B was, “Who the fuck is Bun B?”

Hackey sack, not Hackensack. The latter is a city in New Jersey. This site needs to get some copy editors. I’ve never seen a news website with so many unintentional misspellings and misused words. You’re making us look bad.

Comments like her divorced dad joke don’t bother me. What’s bothers me is the double standard: if a Republican had made the same joke, liberals would tear him or her a new asshole. Someone from The Root would write a piece about how any joke that reinforces negative stereotypes is never “just a harmless joke.”

Wow. That’s some important news.

It’ll be the first time that we have a First Lady who did fully-shaved, full-frontal nudity in a movie. It’ll also be the first time that we have a First Lady who made an art piece for Burning Man that consisted of a penis slide going into a misting vagina tent. Yeah...I’m guessing she’s not going to help him get many…

I don’t care what your position is on anything. I will like you no matter what because your name is a Mr. Show reference.

Ok. But maybe the idea was to have candy ducks that differed in appearance and flavor. If they followed the story to the letter, then they would just have a candy duck with a differently flavored beak. Just the beak...that’s a very minor difference when you’re trying to give customers (especially children) different op…
