Sometimes it feels like people don’t know what an ally is.
Seriously. Seems like nowadays it’s not enough to try to understand all the complex problems society has, it is not enough to admit that there are issues you don’t fully comprehend , but are starting to actually see as part of reality for the first time. Instead, you have to be like, the perfectly informed…
But at the end of the day, what you’re doing is shaming someone for learning something good. You don’t have to hold her up as a paradigm of enlightenment or anything, but she got there in the end. And she even admitted that she was naive.
I believe that they beat him to death. Over what? Who the fuck knows?
True. But considering The Color Purple is one of the most critically acclaimed movies of all time featuring a female lead its a pretty huge caveat to her point.
The closest I see the article come to disclosing that is this:
Fearless Girl and Charging Bull were both created by and for the same industry. And that industry, as often happens, has us fighting among ourselves for its glamorized scraps.
- This was not a bombing/mass shooting
Was this article about her position on money in politics, universal health care, or any of the other issues you mentioned? No. It was about tearing her down over a trivial matter, an imagined slight - something the left excels at. The reputation we have for eating our own is well deserved.
Ah, yes. Here we go again. Political leader with decades of experience positions herself to help people run for office and move the country in a positive direction... and people on the left tear her the fuck down because of some imagined slight.
Swear to God, “problematic” is a buzzword that I’ve come to loathe more with each passing day.
Hey, someone else who has seen Oblivion! Hi! That movie took a lot of lumps from critics but I still find that I enjoyed it. It really felt like Kosinski had a bunch of visual concepts that he fell in love with and then tried to cobble together a story to fit that. I wonder if it would have been better received as a…
If you like sci-fi, both Oblivion and Edge of Tomorrow were very good. I was genuinely surprised at how much I liked him in both of them.
Um, no. The first rule of journalism - okay, the second after getting it right - is to own the shit you publish. That’s the nature of public discourse. The student thought the campus paper was a place to play as a snowflake. If anything, he wanted his public accolades and to eat his cake too - and he got schooled.…
“I would never ...” = “I didn’t realize there would be consequences for my actions.” Which is why we are seeing an uptick in racist and anti-Semitic acts; people are getting the message that they can get away with it.
I really disagree that this is an appropriate way to talk about people. There are lots of pertinent criticisms to be made of him - but saying you want to kick him in the face for being ugly is itself an ugly thing to say.
Your writing ability is excellent, but your knowledge of business and law are lacking.
Why exactly do you think Maher is anti-gay and anti-trans? I’ve never got that impression. Again, you just said you would do grave physical harm to him simply because you feel he disagrees with you on a few issues. That’s messed up.
Seriously, this woman has done more for women’s rights & causes in the past 50 years than 50 millennial bloggers could ever get done in 150 years.... And here they are cutting her down? Stupid kids.
