Ah yes, "demand her release" will certainly fix things. Also, getting upset that the world didn't know about her arrest until now? It's not like I keep tabs on her whereabouts, so people won't know anything until it's reported. And she may be a WNBA legend, but she's far from a household name. If it was Beyonce, it'd…

I'm assuming King Richard didn't delve into his abandonment of his older children?

Unfortunately, I don't see how any of this can improve until Congress reforms legal immigration. And sadly, no one really has the appetite to do that. The Dems are a hot mess and the GOP know they get votes for being tough on "illegals". Addressing our broken legal immigration system just isn't sexy, can't fit on a…

The other kid is Pakistani and Colombian, not what I consider white

I feel like this would be a very different article if the killer was white. While I'm in complete agreement that income insecurity and lack of resources for mental illness treatment contribute greatly to crime rates, not everything can be fixed with more social workers. Especially when there's plenty of people who…

And sorry, I tend to overreact and vent on this site. I know not everything is about me and I've been trying to not leave long, and overly dramatic comments. I just get so heated being told to be nicer to rich and famous people. But being rich or famous doesn't mean it's ok to be subjected to racism, homophobia, etc…

Ugh I really hate that any criticism I might have towards another woman must be evidence of internal misogyny. There's nothing wrong with ambition, climbing the ladder, etc, but that doesn't mean I have to approve of the "any means necessary" type climb. I'm poor and frankly, I could be a millionaire by suing (or just…

Wow, people seem to forget the horrible things Lindsay and Paris did that would get them cancelled today. Paris had no problem calling black people the N word and making fun of gay people getting AIDS. Lindsay blamed a black person for a theft she was responsible for, and not that long ago tried to kidnap children off…

Because her giving pledge made global news. It also spotlights organizations that poors like me can donate to. Because of all the billionaires who have agreed to give away most of their wealth, she's one of the few actually doing it. Not just transferring it to a foundation she created herself. You can be angry that…

It's probably the least offensive way of becoming one. If she hadn't, the billions she's given away already would be spent by Jeff Bezos on things like union busting and penis rockets

Ah yes, I always look to multimillionaires to tell me how to avoid "burnout." I have nothing against Harry, but dear God, he is so tone deaf. I'm all for parental leave, but he needed 4 months off from not making content that Spotify and Netflix paid him for? As someone with severe depression, I'm so sick of this…

Because it's more than just religion. For instance, people who were born into Jewish families but didn't practice, or even converted to Christianity were not safe. They were targeted just the same. We are a distinct ethnic group that shows in our genes. That being said, I don't think she should have been suspended and…

As a Jew, this was such a missed opportunity for further discussion. Whoopi has said offensive things for decades and this has been completely overblown. How we view race today in America is different than how it was viewed in Europe during the time of the Holocaust. White Europeans were not just seen as white as they…

Right? What a weird comment, unless that person thinks antisemitism is just fine because the Israeli government is horrible. Ugh

I mostly agree. I've been called horrible things from fellow Jews for my criticism of Israel. And the threat definitely comes from the right. Still, there are people on the left who play oppression Olympics and roll their eyes at antisemitism because we don't face the same challenges as black and indigenous people.…

I’ve wondered about the “cutoff” for blackness in terms of how someone should identify when checking the race boxes on college applications, etc and if reparations ever happen, who gets to benefit from that. Like if someone is a quarter black and looks completely white, but identifies as black, does that harm other…

Marriage is a choice. I personally don’t understand how people with such different views can possibly be married, but if my husband was a vocal critic of science and found it perfectly appropriate to compare not being able to go to restaurants if you’re unvaccinated to a genocide, I SHOULD be judged because by…

People have to work. I haven't gone to restaurants, concerts, etc since this all started but I can't be a vet tech over zoom. And covid is spreading like wildfire at my clinic but I don't get paid if I don't show up. We take as many precautions as possible but social distancing is not an option when we're holding…

No one has forgotten that. Any woman trying to make a decision regarding an unwanted pregnancy knows adoption is an option. It's not just about raising the child, it's the pregnancy itself that can have horrible emotional and psychical consequences

Except going forward with a pregnancy is a much more “important”/potentially dangerous decision. Why would you advocate for someone who can't use pointy scissors to have a baby? Plus I’d much rather stupid people (like antivaxxers who won't vaccinate their kids) not breed
