But it’s actually far-right activists like Cernovich who are bringing this up. Gunn, too. It’s not liberals playing PC police. It’s a cynical attempt by “alt-right” people to delegitimize progress that’s been made in the wake of things like #metoo

I think the important detail is that this stuff is being dredged up in bad faith. It’s cynical people looking at what they perceive to be some kind of SJW outrage culture and hitching on to that in an attempt to pin corporations that aren’t interested in political nuance into punishing people. I’d bet there is a…
I’m getting tired of people having to apologize for stupid shit like this when we have real stuff we should be focusing on. This is why Democrats lose elections we’re too busy clutching our pearls and being the PC police on weird comedy and art. I’m glad I came of age in the 90s when people got mad at Beavis and…
That has nothing to do with this current scenario. Neither Gunn or Harmon are coming under attack of ‘the perpetually offended’, they are coming under attack from a small group of shit eating, horrible people who are attempting to use other people’s ignorance in an effort to shut down and destroy the lives of people…
would be quite fitting for 2018 if the alt-right finally gets defeated by coming for the rick and morty fandom.
I hope Susan Sarandon drives off a cliff for real
Five?
All of the sudden old school union tactics seem more reasonable. Remember, organized labor fights for better working conditions for all. You like weekends? 40 hour weeks? Child labor laws? Breaks? Harrassment laws? Health coverage? Raises? Thank a union member today.
It’s like his brain connected “I hate this woman” with “lol calling women fat is hilarious” and didn’t bother to pay attention to the actual woman he was even making the joke about.
It’s amazing that people who look Giuliani and Trump are confident enough to make fun of the way women look. And Hillary Clinton is far more attractive than they have ever been. Where does that kind of undeserved self esteem come from?
I wish that we (the US) were to that point. I cannot fathom wanting to own any guns, let alone the assault style/fully automatic/semi automatic style of weapons that this story is about. I thought that surely Sandy Hook would change people’s minds. When that failed I basically gave up hope. If tens of dead…
You knew it was coming!
Me prepping:
Uh, Republicans controlled Congress during Sandy Hook. There were multiple gun laws proposed, mostly by Democrats, after the shooting and, surprise surprise, they were all voted down by Congress. Obama for his part signed 23 executive orders to reduce gun violence. So no, not “in all fairness.”
I overall disagree on Rogen. He was pretty young when he started out in Apatow movies, and over the years I thought he seemed to be more and more interested in getting complex female characters on screen. It seems silly to discuss the feminist aspects of Neighbors 1 & 2, but I think I remember him talking about how he…
“Used” has a very specific sexual meaning as well.
His “strategy” of being so awful and continuously saying awful things is working: I am exhausted. Just add it to the ever-growing pile that is so large it will eventually bury us all under a suffocating blanket of horribleness.
We may yet be surprised tomorrow. The polls are all over the place, so turnout is the key. If it’s low overall, Moore wins. If Dems turn out in big numbers, Jones can do it.
She still doesn’t really say anything here. All she says is that women should feel comfortable speaking up and we should listen. There’s no mention of consequences for the perpetrators or, hell, even believing these women. In reference to Trump, she doesn’t even mention him.
