Welcome to the Deadspin comments, Aaron. Don’t forget to write down your burner key!
Counterpoint: Public shaming may be the tool most appropriate to change not only his behavior, but that of the next racist.
Bonus points for holding a profession where people will ALWAYS Google your name before doing business with you.
I’m generally fine with Deadspin’s coverage of the Patricia situation, but this passage is not good:
As someone who ended up with 4, you are completely correct.
Or bragging about allegedly winning a middle school debate and being a Jehovah’s Witness as a child, in her 40’s. Her failure to launch is evident. She collects degrees and brags about her superiority in middle school, superiority over religious people, and her superiority over a society she fails to engage with. I…
How many uber drivers are there is the US?
“Look, we’ve got a young woman who’s suffered a lot. We understand that. That’s traumatizing. And I think she’s still trying to work through all of that. And just how she remembered this meeting was very different than those of us who were there.”
In some sense I think of this platform as the left’s answer to Breitbart. Deadspin to a lesser extent, but The Root and Jezebel produce a lot of content that is designed primarily to inflame outrage in people with a clearly defined spectrum of sociopolitical beliefs.
Whats the honesty? Is she a known transgender woman? I don’t know anything about her, so I have no idea if it’s known or assumed.
It’s really astonishing the lengths that this site will go to make sure they’re constantly adhering to the most orthodox viewpoints. Are there people who actually enjoy content like this? It doesn’t even attempt to look at the issue from anywhere other than a predetermined position.

Okay, I had to watch it in the interest of knowing what it is I’m supposed to be hating. And it’s hella stupid, and only a tiny, tiny bit funny, and I say this as a Jewish person who had family badly affected by Hitler, but I also came of age in the 70s and find many deeply offensive things kind of amusing, when done…
Sad that people don’t see what’s really going on here. This isn’t about punishing jokes, it’s about punishing speech. Like the law says, context doesn’t matter. Anyone using the phrase for whatever reason is breaking the law. “Oh, I’m just reporti-” Context doesn’t matter. You, Rebecca, have quoted the phrase and are…
Does it have a walk-and-talk? I can’t judge until I know.
This started with me going...hey accidents happen; they told him he was cleared, he was sufficiently apologetic and she seemed cool with that until someone with an attorney got in her ear.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft, of all people, and 76ers owner Michael Rubin visited Meek Mill in Pennsylvania prison today, where the Philly rapper is currently serving time for a probation violation. Kraft talked to the media afterward and—if you adjust your standards for his wealth, age, and race— actually made a…
Also, could you imagine how annoying it is to be asked about your friend’s tattoo? If someone asked me a question like that I’d tell them to fuck off. Thank goodness I’m not famous.
“I’d bite off the Beatles, or anybody else. It’s all one world, one planet and one groove. You’re supposed to learn from each other, blend from each other, and it moves around like that,”
