journalistic integrity, what? this is a blog, man. they have zero obligation to give him the time of day.

Holy shit. Thanks for posting. I’m honestly fucking disappointed in The Root for participating in this rapist’s apology tour. Fuck you, Fairfax. I hope he burns in hell next to Kavanaugh. I’ll be there with my pitchfork.

Thanks for contributing to this RAPIST’s apology tour, The Root! Glad to know how much you value the voices of women like Dr. Tyson. Fuck this man. How dare you continue backing him up. Disgusting.

my boyfriend assaulted me when i was 16 and i was too ashamed to tell anyone until last year. you calling me a liar? my sister was raped at a college party and never reported him because she drank too much and assumed no one would believe her. i guess you think she’s a liar too. my friend was raped in college by a…

YAAAASSSSS LIZZO!!!!! She looks incredible!! Everything about her brings me such joy. And Truth Hurts is a motherfucking anthem to live by.

With you 100%. If around 20% of women have been sexually assaulted or worse, I’m going with about 15% of men are guilty of something. And every last one of them can burn. That includes Fairfax.

I give no shits about the details of the case. The US government should not be allowed to kill its own people. Full stop. No excuses.

So your idea of justice is violence?

In a justice system that is wildly unfair to black men, and will (with some frequency) convict them of crimes they didn’t commit, how can you possibly believe the state should be able to put ANYONE to death? Lock em up for life, make attempts to rehabilitate them, etc. NO American should be killed by the American gover…

Like, I can semi understand the design impulse? Turtlenecks are big RN, so let’s... make them bigger! Make it so big it can cover (half) your face! But now you can’t talk... man, wouldn’t it be so kitschy to put a mouth hole there, like a ski mask? Oh, and wouldn’t it be a cute little design touch if we put lips on…

I feel like it comes down to the credibility of the claim, and yes, that will be decided by the public. He ain’t ever going to jail, we all know that. Anyone who’s been sexually assaulted knows that. They never get locked up.

Post and other newspapers usually look for people who can corroborate, usually by saying she had shared this story with them in the past. She’d only started talking about it super recently, which is understandable given her trauma, but that meant they couldn’t back up her story enough to publish. I’m glad they came…

good. he deserves it.

read her statement. it is hella compelling.

seriously. i’m down to boycott some brands until they raise working conditions. i get why they didn’t name them, since these women and girls need that income, but it’s annoying all the same.

Sir, they were dumb enough to vote for this man; can’t no one expect them to do math.

Yeah this article really got into my feelings on Harris to a T. I think my struggle is that I so badly *want* to pref her in the primaries because I feel an emotional connection to her. And that fights my more liberal impulses on policy, where she’s currently just not as strong. For instance, her tax policy is revenue…

seriously. farrakhan is the boogeyman they attach to every powerful black figure to try to get them down. yeah, farrakhan sucks. i don’t like him. i think there are plenty of incredible, not anti-semitic, pro-black activists to work with that no one should need to fuck with farrakhan. i don’t think this fraternity…

I have no words. I’m just so sorry you went through that. No one should be forced to live in those kinds of conditions.
