It really would be great if people would keep this same energy for all the white people who file false reports on Black people, which, by the way, make up 70% of false allegations.

And again, if it wasn’t this it would be something else. There’s always something.

I just don’t understand what he thought he was gaining here. Like, what is the thought process?

See, I used to be one of these “fake rape (hate crime) accusations are terrible because they make it harder for real victims” people, but let me tell you now, that’s bullshit.

There is so much about this that doesn’t make sense. And that’s one of them.

“Right. But it’s a straw man that progressives make it easy for rape apologists to use, by being dicks about it and calling anyone who expresses skepticism or asks questions a rape apologist or racist or victim blamer.”

You’re still concern trolling.

Concern troll is very concerned here. Shut up.

“At the start of the press conference, Johnson lamented the attention the Smollett case has gotten versus other crimes in Chicago. “I wish that the families of gun violence in this city got this much attention because that’s who really deserves the amount of attention that we’re giving to this particular incident,” he…

Guy promoted one level beyond his competence? What’s his level of competence?

And Black women victims.

At the very least, I don’t think it hurts, so I really don’t see the harm in doing it.

I really don’t know who you think you’re fooling here, but it’s not working. We know men aren’t confused, they just don’t like the answers.

The funny thing about Whitlock is that he’s basically turned into a conservative caricature ranting about “SJWs” to “trigger the libs” after he lost his gig at the Undefeated and became irrelevant. In other words, he’s doing exactly what he says Colin Kaepernick is doing. Pure projection.

“Right wingers are masters at weaponizing concepts like free speech and censorship for their own ends.”

I’m not sure if he’s a libertarian tech bro who thinks “the marketplace of ideas” and “free speech” is the answer to everything up to white supremacy and genocide or if he just agrees with these goals. I’m also not sure if it matters, and fwiw I suspect it’s the latter. He’s had too many people warn him about the…

“Thank you for this, this guy is so off base trying to speak on our issues, and quite frankly his fixation on transgender people, and online behavior, suggest very creepy and nefarious motives”

“Are you out of your mind? Go check the comment sections on a Breitbart article regarding anything trans and get some perspective ffs.”

Also related is the implication (which verges on being outright spoken a few times) is that trans people are too “biased” to speak on trans issues and that cis people are not and are therefore more qualified.

This comment and line of thinking just reeks of “everybody should care about the things I care about and nothing and nobody else”.
