I don’t think there’s anyone here with the mental capacity to understand your point. Most of these people are middle class white women who have never experienced and have no concept of what real oppression is.

YES. Spot on. This reads like a huge marketing gimmick based on current outrage trend with no real research behind it.

I’m glad you said it, because almost no one was saying it.

Ah the place where abbos is a racial slur. I think color discrimination works the same over there.

As a fan of literary critics tearing down bad books I found this review to be a fun, silly romp that allowed my mind to spin up memories of other bad books I’ve read. Now the chic thing to do is to say that Jeb Lund is chic.

I believe it’s his opinion on the feature itself, rather than the game.

I’m disappointed in Miley’s tone-deaf silence on her cultural appropriation of black culture during her so-called Dead Petz/Bangerz days. I also think she’s very talented and I like the music video for Malibu, but I’m shocked at how quickly she’s reinvented her image without going away for some years. 2013 isn’t that…

I love the Bronn character but just the act of pointing a weapon at that majestic death machine should have merited a roasting.

Yeah, I kind of feel like GoT jumped the shark last night...

Unmovable Incest vs Unstoppable Incest, who will win?

For a short time, i thought they might kill Jaime. Obvi they weren’t going to Kill Drogon in his first god damn battle. But Jaime’s show story hasn’t been going down the redemptive arc that book Jaime has been on.

No, he’s not useless.

You KNOW that you want to see a faceoff between Tyrion and the former friend who betrayed him for the promise of a castle and a wife.

He’s a fat pig but I love your concern, Mr. Gawker Hall Monitor.

I know right. I mean Living Single was one of the best sitcoms ever. I’m glad you agree it didn’t need to be remade into that other thing.

I only read the articles I get links from Kinja and on twitter so I’ll admit I don’t know their whole body of work. I could see how in context of their whole brand their “wokeness” seems fake.

The North’s primary motivation was to maintain the Union and secure the other half of its economic foundation, not end slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation was done out of convenience and for the sake of winning the war, not out of moral obligation. The Civil War was indeed started by the South to defend slavery,…

I know a bad concept when I hear one, and I know a good concept when I hear one. I am capable of analyzing concepts, and coming to a conclusion. It’s really not that hard. I don’t have any faith in those making Confederate based on their previous work (including the Black ones that white people keep trotting out), to…

I thought one of the big problems Haiti had was that France forced it to pay back the “debt” incurred by freeing the slaves and confiscating slave-owner property. According to the summary in Wikipedia, the payments to France were the equivalent of $21 billion in today’s currency.

Liberia was a colonial endeavor in the truest sense, right down to the displacement, disenfranchisement, religious and cultural destruction and social degradation of it’s native inhabitants. It has a deeply troubled history, as all colonial nations do and those scars remain today. To pretend otherwise is simply…
