“Thanks, white person!”

...And to Japanese people they look Japanese. They sometimes look like Japanese people with blue or pink or yellow hair, but what you’re seeing as visual signifiers of whiteness are typically taken by Japanese viewers as signifiers of being Japanese, or as typical flourished of the anime style (the huge round eyes,…

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.

Pretty much. Kobe could rape someone and get off with a small fine. Probably no more than the cost of a fancy wedding ring

I don’t hate the film, but I understand why people do. Watchmen is a high concept book... and you can tell Snyder didn’t understand all the concepts. Some of them, but not all of them. Some of the stuff he was close on just because it is slavishly attentive. He’s copying work without really understanding it in full.

Bv…

Jezebel taking over Kotaku would look like the first 15 minutes of Saving Private Ryan.

WHOA MAN YOU GOT ME THERE

countertaek: Rudy is a story about if a white guy whines enough about how he really, really wants to do something a bunch of black guys are more qualified to do, other white guys will give him the job.

Fresh Air had a great interview about how the federal government basically encouraged white flight and shut out black people from affordable housing.

Wow, you missed the point entirely. No where does she say build highways through rich neighborhoods. She accurately and factually pointed out that they were built through poor neighborhoods because it was cheap and they weren’t politically connected. The whole post is about not building highways through cities in…

Redlining was definitely a thing and a well-known solution to where to put highways, parks and more. Robert Moses tore New York City in half by purposely bulldozing through poor, minority neighborhoods, reshaping them and segregating them physically. Heard of the “South Bronx?” Thank him for it.

is it only women though?

Despite all of the stupid comments you’re receiving, I stand with you.

The trend is disgusting. I mean, look at it. Look at how it’s always women being targeted. And yet, there’s always some con-fucking-venient excuse about why they “deserved” it.

No. Fuck this.

Yeah, can you believe the nerve of Anita Sarkeesian? She expressed an opinion in public, while being a woman AT THE SAME TIME. Since when is that legal?

Did she talk about pedophile rights on Twitter?

The article I see on Linkedin, appears to be a cultural/anthropological analysis of western pressures on Japan’s seemingly lax anti-child pornography laws. Does she say in this that child porn should be legal?

That’s not true at all. She wrote a paper in college about the representaion of young/underage characters in Japanese media. It wasn’t a well written or thought out paper, but she wrote it in fucking college... That paper was only brought to everyone’s attention with GG/MRA idiots dug it up and used it as a shitty…

except she’s right. Plowing through black neighborhoods to build freeways was one of the things which led to the Detroit riots of 1967, and the city’s subsequent decay.

“...people don’t like living next to highways...”

It’s much simpler than you’re making it. “Hitler is the person who disagrees with you on the internet.” That should hold them until school fills in the details.
