I can’t believe how many comments I had to scroll through to find someone calling her out for that bullshit mention of white privilege.

I might have had your back if you hadn’t snuck the White privilege snark in there. Now I kind of think you’re just an entitled asshole with no self-awareness and that your kid is likely to be as well.

Easy answer: it’s Hillary.

I’m willing to say that it wasn’t Hillary, if only based on the theory that we probably would have heard about it by now, given the fact that she can’t even take a dump that has corn in it without the conservative media analyzing it.

Do you mean the website or the entire nation of India? Come on Gin, you're better than this.

The camera slowly panning down her body made me feel so gross inside.

I know where you’re coming from (I really do) but that comes off a touch condescending. We’re trying. Jesus we’re trying. Believe me when I tell you that the vast vast majority of Irish people were/ are horrified by stories like that. Polticians are cowards the world over though and are reluctant to touch the issue.…

As if most Irish people would be paying any attention to what the Pope is saying anymore.

It’s because of the nature of the Irish constitution, this means a government can’t remove this right via legislation.

“The Ruling:Not shade”

Any Western nation would give you sanctuary after this bullshit.

A fuck ton of Chechens are adamantly against this whole travesty, and this sort of treatment of women and girls in general. The public criticism this piece alludes to? Comes from within Chechen culture as well as from without. Don’t let the worst parts of Chechnya define Chechen culture, not without learning about…

Bruh.

Well, thank god you didn’t let concerns about privilege and injustice hold you back. Who wants to be league with those downers?

I’m sorry they’re all coming at you instead of listening and maybe, just maybe, taking your comment into consideration of a larger problem. Kara’s comments are what’s disappointing to a lot of us though. Would not expect this from her. It’s really upsetting.

How come every time there is disapproval of an article on here, or even people giving valid reasons to why it doesn’t read well, Jia always hops on to make snarky comments and argue? It’s not a cute look. Take some constructive criticism and work with your readers. It leaves a sour taste in my mouth every time.

I can’t believe that Jezebel published an article celebrating the kind of bullshit privileged white feminism that disregards the experience of anyone who isn’t white and/or of the bourgeoisie class, all with a cute little disclaimer near the bottom saying “Don’t try if you can’t look white and rich, tee hee” and that…

you sound like you’re excellent at taking criticism

Yes, that totally explains why Jez posted an article basically giggling over the systemic racism and classism that ensures that a rich white woman trying to fly with drugs is going to have a radically different experience than a poor non-white person.

PS. You know you’re onto something when not one but THREE Jez writers come after you
