And your stellar take apparently is “if someone assaults you to the point where you are unable to do your job for several weeks, you should do nothing because Ferguson and patent trolls”?

Let’s start over. Your claim is that “racially insensitive words necessarily lead to racist action.” What is your evidence for that claim? (Reminder: the fact that Dylann Roof and Wade Michael Page made racist comments before their racist action is distinctly not evidence for your claim, because correlation does not…

This desire to tag along on a raunchy night with one’s own child, to experience her life just as she does, is exactly what happens when a woman internalizes society’s message that she is only worth a damn if she’s young and dewy and carefree, things that we all supposedly cease to be the minute we spit out offspring…

According to Kara Brown’s logic, the guy in the “red hooded sweatshirt” was perfectly justified to shoot those two people, because the racist police made him do it.

If that’s how Kelly’s been operating in Philadelphia, then it’s not really surprising for guys like LeSean McCoy and Brandon Boykin to motion towards racism. Kelly may be not be a racist at all, but treating players like commodities is a good way to come off like one.

you’re cool

Since you’ve learned so much from this quality of writing, maybe you can answer a question for me about how we are meant to respond to it. Let’s say someone wrote a brilliant, impassioned defense of Planned Parenthood — but in the middle of it, dropped a couple of incredibly fucking stupid, racist sentences. When…
