I defy you, God. My dog will never die.

Why are people saying she is on drugs? Racism is not a side effect of any drug. LOL please stop with that bullshit. Y’all are trying to rationalize this nonsense. That white privilege even affects people of color thought processes.

Life...uh...finds a way.

They are expected to use evidence of her eating disorder, her time on the cheerleading squad and track team, and her participation in the National Honor Society—evidence Richardson’s defense has used to paint her as a rule-abiding overachiever

White LGBTQ men and women, including white people who are gender non-conforming in some way can certainly be racist.

I do squats in the bathroom if my pants permit (important!!1!). Our stalls are deep enough that I can pull it off without hitting anything.

Completely agree. Yes her lyrics are rather simplistic but so was ALL OF THE 90s. If we are gonna pull apart Alanis are we going to do the same for Pearl jam? No. This article is wrong. Alanis was a power to be reaconed with and still gets me going all these years later. Just because this author feels embarrassed by…

Yeah this is a shit take on an absolutely classic and significant album.

Never! As other people have (rightly) pointed out- even if you don’t like the album, culturally speaking it’s a huge watershed moment, to have this ANGRY woman and it’s totally socially acceptable that she’s pissed off and not being quiet/demure/cute. And that was mainstream!

Absolutely. The order is reduce, reuse, recycle. Recycle is the last resort. We should all be reducing the amount of waste we generate first, then reusing what we can, then finally recycling anything left.

That’s just not true. He endorsed Hillary at the 2016 Democratic Convention and then campaigned for Hillary on the road. It’s not fair to confuse the behavior of some Bernie-or-die supporters with the actions of the man himself.

Didn't he travel the country campaigning for Clinton?

Another great quote from the linked article:

looking forward to all the forthcoming comments continuing to blame Sanders directly like in the previous article, rather than reading what this woman has to say.

To the other commenters, where did they act like they cured inequality? They proved a point and people, like local news, took notice. That’s like step #1 of deconstructing white supremacy - using your privilege to not only acknowledge it exists but also right the wrongs it produced.

I see this divergence around what’s…

Paramount: “Roman Polan-who? Never heard of him. But be sure to buy this horror movie classic, ‘Rosemary’s Baby’, now out on Bluray!

“Americans are obsessed with claiming inordinate amounts of private space that they don’t need. So apartment/city living has been denigrated”

Well, we spent too LONG insisting on “home ownership or bust! otherwise you’re not a real grownup american!”.... and severely neglected our apartments, our cities, & urban living in general, in the process.

What’s egregious here is paying 1600 or more to live in a tiny room. Affordable housing is a problem, especially in the city.The real estate class violently opposes rent control and the public falls into hysteria over subsidized housing.

Because giving a pass to Clinton paved the way for Trump today. I get that we had to align ourselves with him to get progressive policies, but we’re paying the price now.
