Sadly, you are right — not surprising. Hence my first comment: “This entire thread is the most Jezebel thing ever. Complete and total inability to reckon with even the most limited criticism. Yeeeeesh.”

Thank you.

Who wore a cowboy hat in Alien? The Alien?

People speak of Pewpie like he is some growing child that made an oopsies. He’s one of the most powerful youtubers ever, and has a direct line to children around the world.

The sad part is that while I agree there are a number of people who you are describing accurately I think the vast majority are just being malicious for the sake of being malicious. They don’t actually care what Jack had to say but if they can f**k with someone then they will especially after someone else gets the…

Sure, keep telling yourself that.

Quality of life for actual people on the ground when the Soviets took over and got worse when the Soviet Union fell, you mental midget.

I think the next logical step in this peaceful, healthy debate / exchange is for capitalists to live in / be embedded in a laissez-faire capitalist country for 6 months. Sans any of the social democratic benefits they’ve expressed concerns about.

This seems like a bit of a reach. Youtube was doing just fine before any of these dipshits showed up; they may have fostered more of a community, but Youtube would be just fine without these guys. Empirically, I use Youtube for funny videos and music to listen to at work, and the occasional video to watch while under…

The vast majority of Pewdiepie’s fans are children. And children are stupid. They’re not emotionally mature enough to fully grasp nuance or context. They see Jacksepticeye criticizing his actions while also voicing support, and all they understand is “Jacksepticeye talked shit about Pewdiepie.” They can’t see how…

Lmao the federalist

oh my word, the federalist wrote something negative about scandanavia! i’m shocked, shocked i tell you. my world view is shaken to its very core.

You’re response to my valid question about why the system is this way is to go fuck myself? Ok, then! Feeling’s mutual. Try to be a more thoughtful person.

are you offering to bankroll me in scandanavia for 6 months? because i’m definitely in

Learn your history. Why are women expected to change their names, but men aren’t? There’s a reason for that. You changed your name, that’s your perogative. Own what that means in our culture.

You went from the essentialist view, that the name “belongs” irrevocably to a man, to an existentialist one, where a woman “earns” it over time. And then back again to your original view! In one comment!

Names can come from anywhere and be anything! My name JUST HAPPENED to come from me keeping the status quo of taking my husbands name. It’s a total coincidence! It’s equally likely the wind could have blown on my birth certificate and rearranged the letters to spell Marva Mackerelhenny!

She made some stellar points but as soon as she said a negative thing about Beyonce (and she is fucking right about it) and marriage y’all lost the plot and can’t talk about any thing else. “Omg’ I’m getting married, ‘omg being a 24/7 feminist’, ‘omg Queen Bey’. Now you’re breaking your backs to discredit her because…

Well, first off: I know plenty of people who have their mother’s last name because there was never a man in the picture. That would include people from traditions where names change from generation to generation (I have a friend whose last name is “Brigittsdottir” for that very reason).

The wedding is the least anti-feminist thing about marriage, even if you go full traditional wedding.
