It's a curious thing about human nature that we continue to expect better from people who have shown us, consistently, that they are not better. The Kardashians are as they do and have done. No surprise.

It's all done under a lack of male gaze.

This pretty much sums up the problem with (some) cops. This guy is pants-shittingly terrified of just the presence of unarmed citizens. He's waiving his gun around like he was in the middle of the jungle and the rest of his platoon had just been killed by the VC and he was just waiting to be taken or to have his…

Are the peanut butter pretzels okay??? For the love of god TELL ME!

That's not at all the point the OP was making. Context is everything. They are arguing that the context of the original means one thing and the context of this use of it means another. It doesn't matter who is singing it in that instance. You can disagree, but ripping the argument down to "you just think it's…

This video makes me weep for my people and women. Nicki can do whatever she wants but as consumers and audience we should realize what larger role this plays in society. I fully remember the days when hyper-sexualized female rappers were not the norm. Queen Latifah, Monie Love, Missy Elliot, MC Lyte, Da Brat, Roxanne…

EVERYBODY knows the original song. This isn't some obscure track from 79. It's a really famous song.

On a side note:

Not only are we not treated like human beings, black people aren't even treated as well as pets are by their fellow Americans.

You'll find that the people doing the oppressing always want to start the narrative at a convenient part, or always want to start the story in the middle.

Could White people please stop talking about the "militarization" of the police, as if the police just started treating Black people this way 10 years ago when the government started handing this gear out?

Do you approve, though? Because I feel like nominating the President is the ultimate arrogant douchebag move. You aren't friends with President Obama, Bieber. You don't get to be the one to put weird pressure on him to do something like this. It's totally cool if Obama decides to do the ice bucket challenge, and…

Kara Brown, you are a voice that has been much needed around here for a long while. Thank you.

White people always need us to tell them how great they are and how it isn't all of them before we talk about how frustrated we are the systemic anti-black racism. It's a colonial thing. Even if you didn't generalize them in your OP, they still need something from you to be able to not immediately dismiss your…

Actually, that is the norm. Every PoC has a story just like this one. Every PoC experiences this. That's the norm.

I'm seeing one too many black celebrities give their awful input about this situation and their general opinion is that black people shouldn't be angry about this situation because ~hate breeds more hate~ and we are the ones responsible for the racial divide in this country and blah, blah, blah. It mystifies me how…

Yup, like most nerds. It's all in his music.

Twitter has been on this since two hours after the shooting on Saturday. As of last night, four days later, 3 out of the 4 major cable news stations STILL weren't covering this situation in depth.

I really, really hope Ferguson is the tipping point for the American public to wake up and realize their own police have become a privatized military force, and that this is a serious problem. Serve and protect my ass.

Khloe looks phenomenal here. I've had a soft spot for her ever since I found out she's only like 5'8". Standing next to them two Lilliputians just makes her look extra ginormous and she's gotten a really disgusting amount of flak for it.
