I’m a trans woman who has seen the attacks on my community ramp up over the past couple of years. When you say “maybe we could scrap identity politics”, I hear “maybe you should hush while we discuss what I consider *real* problems.”

I don’t see an heir apparent.

Referring to someone as a "whatever" is a classy way to cap off that argument. Ridiculous. 

My concern is that I don’t see him trying to prepare anyone else to lead the movement. I don’t see an heir apparent. So, for all that he may talk about not centering himself, it’s weird that he hasn’t lifted anyone up to take over at the national level once he is too old (or baggage-laden) to be the center of

This also happened after the WFP endorsed Warren a few days ago.

Cant wait for the white Bernie supporters to come explain how this was all trolls and not actual Bernie supports, ignoring the numerous persons of color, women, and especially women of color who have been documenting it for 4 years now. They know about it better than the people experiencing it and they are here to

Karu Daniels (he’s the author for those of y’all not reading the byline) just hit one of my most sensitive pet peeve nerves:

This comment epitomizes why people are turned off so much by Bernie supporters and why as a result it’s dooming Bernie himself. Bernie Bros are more concerned about saying “I told you so.” than the actual issues. You want a pat on the back?

I am enjoying the irony of Bernie supporters basically saying “it’s his turn” because of his success in the previous election.

Part of me wants to give Madame Pancake Ass the benefit of the doubt but the other part of me knows that she manages every part of her image so carefully that there is no fucking way she didn’t know about this. The only question I have is why in the fuck would Neo Nazi’s hold her ass up as the perfect specimen of

Why she look like some dollar store Jem?

I have no idea how we’ve managed to hide our racism from the world for so long, unless it’s because we’re not as scrutinized as the US. Our treatment of First Nations people should make us an international disgrace.

The real tea is that White Canadians, especially the Quebecois, are some of the most low-key racist people I’ve ever lived and worked around. The only difference between them and the American Whites is that they manage to hide their utter contempt for Black and Brown people a little better.

This is a bullshit answer. I knew that there would be a comment like this here.

Jameela Jamil, patron saint of reminding the world that we live in a superficial and sexist society as if she were the first to discover that, is taking her “activism” in a slightly different direction.

Stop it. Stop attacking women for having opinions, speaking out, and trying to make things better. What the hell happened to Jezebel? I’ve been around here for years, and recently the rhetoric has just become so hateful and isolating. This is ridiculous. 

I came here to say this exactly. Why is Jez suddenly hating on every woman who speaks out on something, regardless of whether it’s a good or bad message?

“has been co-opted recently by women of totally socially-acceptable, skinny shapes and sizes who think the movement is just for anyone who feels good or wants to show off their armpit hair”...You guys know that Jameela has a history of eating disorders since childhood, right? And that she was severely fat-shamed by
