“It’s that you couldn’t fathom Justin Bieber getting away with what he has if he was Black.”

If that’s what the joke is, it doesn’t work because it doesn’t make sense. What exactly has Bieber done that’s worse than Chris Brown? I’m not just talking about the domestic violence, I mean he’s acted the same if not worse

This is unbearably stupid. Why do you think a proper response to racism is more racism? We as human beings should be disgusted by racism whenever we see it, not celebrate it ‘cause, “what goes around comes around”, what an idiotic way of thinking.

I mean at least it’d be different if it was a member of the KKK

Appreciate the genuine reply. I think I see where we differ. I was operating under the assumption that they did do a fair amount of market research to come to the conclusion that women are intimidated by scotch and you were operating under the assumption that they did not. Not sure which of us made the correct

I’m confused what makes the statement that women are intimidated by a certain type of booze ignorant. I’m pretty intimidated by scotch and have no problem admitting that. Most women I know won’t touch it because it’s too harsh, is it just the word “intimidated” that’s offensive/ignorant? Like if they said “based on

I’m curious, what do you think is the “work necessary to eliminate racism from American society”? Is it simply agreeing with everything a black person says? Cause I know there are plenty of black people who vehemently oppose the rhetoric used on sites like this.

All the guy did was point out that being racist in

This is some of the most self-congratulatory, blind, ignorant bullshit I’ve ever read in my life. Of course black people have made enormous contributions to culture, society, politics, the economy, etc. OF COURSE! This upsets no one except for fringe racists. 99% of white people celebrate the contributions that every

For real...I thought “texts” meant, you know, texts, not a bunch of pics and a URL that’s sure to tag my PC at work. Thanks so much, Hannah.

It’s petering out because the net was cast too widely which resulting in conflation. Most people were getting on board with believing victims of sexual assault which was huge, positive progress. Where the #MeToo movement really lost momentum was when every woman out there claimed “#MeToo” over being called pretty or

I don’t disagree with you, but in the post the author spends half the space making the argument that he’s being hypocritical, but he’s not. He’s just being childish. This really has no connection to the kneeling at the NFL games, and trying to make it so makes the author look like they’re grasping at straws. In short,

Ok, but you’re wrong. White people can say it all day long, the question is whether or not they should. The obvious answer is, no, they shouldn’t in most contexts. If by saying “can’t” you mean that it should be in legislation that white people can’t say a word but black people can, then you’re talking about giving

This really is beautiful, really brings the song to life. Now that I think of it, I can’t remember a TDE music video that wasn’t beautifully made.

This misses the point so badly. It doesn’t matter who uses the products, it matters that the products are stolen at a higher rate, leading them to be locked in a case. What does Walmart have to gain by locking up products that only Black people buy? Alienating a large part of their customers in an effort to deter

Ok....If you have 100 products on your shelves and you find out that 10 of those products are stolen at a much higher rate than the other 90, it’s in your best interest to lock up those 10 items that are stolen more frequently. It would be pretty irresponsible not to. But you’re arguing that they should look at the

Perfect! This is a prime example of the black and white classifications I was talking about. I don’t agree 100% with the current narrative so I’m being a “rape apologist”. It’s a shame really, because you have an opportunity to engage in a dialog that could change minds, maybe mine, maybe someone else’s, but instead

Sad, but expected. All you did was deflect the whole time anyway. Regardless, have a good day.  

No one said the perfect victim exists. I understand all of that, we all make mistakes and those mistakes shouldn’t necessarily instantly discredit you, but her statements on twitter (a public forum) could be directly connected to the claim that she made. You’re telling me that if you had a friend who admitted to lying

No, the OP implied doubt, you inferred that OP was stating that the accuser must be lying, big difference. And yes, you should be careful what you tweet or state publicly because those words can be used against you down the road. There are consequences for what you attach to your name, one of those consequences might

You’re the only one saying that she “must be lying”, the commenter above simply put public info back into the discussion. Not sure what planet we’re on here, but to normal people when someone admits to lying callously (and does so publicly), and says they plot to destroy people’s lives (and does so publicly), then

You’re out here fighting the good fight. I see you, but it’s all in vain. Good luck.

Someone who doesn’t automatically agree with 100% of what the article states is a “fuckshit”. Got it. And this is helpful why?

Blog posts and articles about topics like this are meant to generate discussion, not to be an echo chamber. But time and time again the most consistent response to someone trying to start a
