Holy actual fucking shit, are you being deliberately obtuse? Americans, now and pretty much always, consider “cunt” a really vulgar slur. Yes, it technically means “female genitals” but if you’re implying that the etymology is purely Latin and therefore somehow “scientific” and “neutral” — nope. Nope nope nope. In…

I agree that most of the conservative outrage is not legit outrage and mostly just for show, but... that still doesn’t make it right, correct? I mean there is no way, absolutely no way, that we would be OK with anybody calling a woman the C-word, right? So... this time it’s cool because it’s Samantha Bee who we like…

I’m not saying we shouldn’t be angry. I’m not we shouldn’t call them out on their shit and fight back hard. I’m just saying we should be able to do that without being hateful. I’m just reacting to a lot of what I’m seeing online, which is liberals resorting to name-calling people on the right, making gross…

Agree. This is 100 PERCENT PRECISELY the kind of shit that “the Right” screams about “the Left, and their PC Police!!1!” hammering them on. I mean, if we’re dead set on railing about conservatives tearing down politicians and other public figures based on their looks, or using racist or gendered slurs against people…

I totally agree. I hate when people use that word to describe women. Totally unnecessary.

It’s shit like this that gives me a headache. You can’t be fine with something when it’s coming from people you like or aimed at people you hate and appalled when it’s the opposite. Anybody who takes stock in politics today is a fucking shit stain. Your political alignment shouldn’t get you a pass for treating people…

Unpopular opinion: being shitty to a shitty person is still shitty, and calling a woman a cunt, while not as bad as calling an African American an ape, is still pretty fucking shitty. I think we can tear down Ivanka without resorting to gendered slurs and contributing to the general level of vitriol and disrespect in…

If a conservative called a liberal woman a cunt you’d all be having a fit and you know it.

Sara Gilbert can fuck right off with her equivocating. She was one of the producers of the show and helped to get the show rebooted. She knew she was getting in bed with a deranged nutjob. Then she tries to make it seem like the show can exist separately from Roseanne and Roseanne’s opinions shouldn’t have any effect…

My favorite contribution are the ones who find this, claim it’s super-racist, and then somehow turn around and say “And Roseanne’s the racist?!”.

How old is she? I’m 46 and I KNOW she’s got to be older than me.

I’m not going to forgive her the daily damage she does, by speaking for this administration, but - if she sincerely got choked up, I feel very sorry for her. How awful it most be to wake up every morning being Sarah Sanders.

I kind of wish she’d just be honest and treated him like a normal reporter: “Nothing, we’re not going to do anything” “next question”

I watched the whole season and honestly, twitter Rosanne was not the character on the show. The character on the show was a lower class, struggling 60 year old and her family. Sarah Gilbert and Lori Metcalf were 100% the moral compass on the show and usually got the last word. The first episode dealt with why she…

It was definitely a strange decision. While I can see ABC calculating that the recent emboldening of racists across the country might create a lucrative new market of bigots, someone must have realized that Rosanne can’t keep her stupid opinions to herself. Any sane person would have looked at the “hilarious” photo of…

So what you're saying is that every university ought to give a platform to any ignorant tripe, if only to provide a wealth of ideas? I'm tired of this concept that all opinions and viewpoints are equally valid. The WBC is wrong. They should be ignored, but not silenced. Nor should we hand them a bullhorn.

Ageism is alive, well, and applauded. Self-examination is a good thing for everyone.

Whether I agree with her opinions or not, I think asking older women—especially one of Greer’s background— to sit down and let the young’uns take over is a bit much, too.
Let her talk and defend her views, or let her talk and change her views. If we just tell her to sit down and shut up, old lady with outdated views,…
