Oh no, a guy who’s repeatedly said racist and homophobic things is getting snarky comments on a message board, however will society survive?!

The title of this article is a little click-baity. It acts like requesting the gender-neutral dressing room is at the crux of the issue when it’s really Reid being harassed for being gender non-binary.

Reducing this to a dressing room/bathroom issue just plays into the fears bigots have about non-binary folk.

Chappelle, Netflix and Chappelle’s defenders are throwing around broad terms like “freedom of speech” and “cancel culture”. None of them are defending the specifics of what Chappelle said about trans people. They can’t because then they’d be exposed as the bigots they are.

I’m not anti-black, I’m just pro-white.

Nope, still doesn’t work.

If a journalist says they’re shaken by a non-response like that, they’re not much of a journalist.

I consider myself liberal but between this, ganging up on Simu Liu and calling Ellis Kemper a “KKK Princess”, Kotaku (and Jezebel which is its own animal) have had some REALLY bad takes on celebrities. Don’t turn this site into the liberal version of FOX.

I swear to god, you’d think they were looking to find the co-parent to your next child instead of the next host of Jeopardy. In my life I’ve learned to tolerate a whole lot of stupid. Keep Bialik for all I care. I may not want to hang with her on the weekends but she’d be perfectly fine as a host.

As much as I’d like…

I was about to reference the Project Greenlight fiasco he caused. This man is tone-deaf and really does not need to be commenting on minorities.

You hit the nail on the head with the bit about the ego-stroking “broken wing boys”. You should never date someone in order to fix them; when you date someone you have to accept them as-is. If you’re dating “broken” people in order to fix them, then the relationship is all about you. You’ll either dump them when you…

If this wasn’t such a contrived request from a completely contrived show, I’d argue these guys should run as far from Katie as possible. As it is, it’s creepy and stupid. This show just seems to be sinking every season, maybe it’s time to put it out of its misery.

Nope. Many queer people, myself included, were open at a time when it was needed. She can have her awakening any way she wants but to say “Happy Pride” when you haven’t even said “I’m gay” is hypocritical.

Pride isn’t about being gay, it’s about being able to show the world who you are without shame. Everyone has known…

Fuck Queen Latifah. She stayed in the closet long enough for us queer people to give her her rights and now she wants to say “Happy Pride”? Nah, fuck that. She can take a seat with Jodie Foster.

She is the exact opposite of Pride. Can’t even say she’s a lesbian.

I don’t know if I buy that it was acceptable at the time. Shitty behavior is shitty behavior and 7 years isn’t that long ago.

I 100% agree that people love gotcha moments and I think they LOVE to knock someone down. They were fine when Tiegen did and they’re fine doing the same to her. There’s a puritanical streak in…

Not a fan of hers but I’m baffled at why *now* people have realized that’s she’s a bully. She’s always been this way and I’m pretty sure a lot of people bashing her were cheering her on with “Yaaassss Qweeeennn” years earlier.

It’s because saying you’re doing something is much easier than actually doing it.

I’m not a Chrissy Teigan fan but she was always this way, why has the internet collectively decided *now* is the time to cancel her? I have a feeling a huge people complaining about her behavior were “Yaaas Qweeeennnnn”ing her years earlier.

It’s like the parents who indulge a bratty child and wonder why their kid is…

You’re calling a 20 year old man a crybaby repeatedly on a public forum to shame him into giving a apology.

I was going to post the same thing. Of all the things to post about, of all the issues they can draw attention to, *this* is what they continue to flog.

I fixed that headline for y’all.

Y’know, a lot of douchebags like to bitch and moan about “cancel culture” and “SJWs” and this is why. This is a nothingburger of a story with a falsely inflammatory headline, The Root needs to be better than this.

If nothing else, don’t throw darts at Kempner when there’s no claim nor implication that she’s done…
