True, but how the fuck did it make it that far in the first place, is what most people are wondering.

Why? Black people still have to deal with white people who discuss us as though were were nothing but problems every damn day.

You cannot be for real.

Honestly some of the most prejudiced people I’ve ever known were people who self identify as progressive. I can’t remember where I heard/read this but the only difference between a liberal and conservative is one will apologize for defecating in your living room without making any attempt to help clean it up while the…

That's pretty rich coming from the land of the E channel and the Grammy awards.

As well as being a complete style bad-ass, Camila Batmanghelidjh runs Kids Company, who do amazing work helping children from some really rough backgrounds. You can read more and donate here!

I think people may agree or disagree with JKR but considering some of the political donation issues we have up here (that don’t make international press) - her donations are very straightforward and transparent. I won’t even go into that the other parties do because I am sure it is even worse. The general consensus I…

Yes, but the sad fact is there continues to be a no acknowledgement of the abuse, smearing, and scares that the so-called ‘Better Together’ campaign engaged in. There was a slim majority on the no side, but it was never a fair fight.

She’s very vocal about bullying on one side, but ignored the fact that the whole of the mainstream media, especially the BBC, participated in a juggernaut of smearing and scare-mongering instead of a reasoned argument.

As a Canadian I agree completely.

Quebec can secede and keep their bizarre French racism and perceived superiority. I once asked a Quebecois academic why Quebec and France were so virulently racist and he gave a super long answer about concepts of liberty, the Republic, the Enlightenment and the Revolution all contributed to the current state of…

It’s been very interesting comparing Scottish nationalism to Quebec nationalism. The most important thing that the pundits here seem to be missing is that a vote for the SNP, or the Bloc, or the PQ is not the same thing as a vote for independence. Voting SNP was a win-win for Scotland this time, no matter which party…

They took the Labour votes for granted. The Scottish Labour party has been eroded on a grass roots level over the last decades even though it is one of the oldest and strongest Socialist parties in the UK. The party become a very London focused middle-class party and many people feel betrayed by that. But this is all…

What a great way of completely missing the point and making this article about a stupid girl and a stupid kid and not shedding any light on the horrific situation in which immigrants from Africa find themselves when trying to cross to Europe. This is a story about a little boy and his father desperately trying to make…

I’m aware that The Economist leans right. It’s also one of the best written periodicals in the English speaking world. Getting all of my news from The Economist, the New York Times, and National Public Radio makes for balanced, outstanding coverage of domestic and international affairs.

These people are like outspoken atheists and PETA - I agree with them in theory, but in practice, they’re such fucking killjoys.

One of the big questions that fans asked after watching Man of Steel was just how many people died as a result of Superman’s megaton battles with other Kryptonians.

“Killing isn’t cool in Avengers: Age of Ultron. That’s a very un-Marvel place to wind up.”
