Nice to see Hollywood finally developing roles for women of a certain rage.

I love Jennifer Garner, but I can’t support this. It’s conservative propaganda masquerading as an action film.
The Avenging parent genre is proof that Hollywood is not an exclusively liberal, left leaning entity of progressive elitism as so many conservatives whine about- these films are designed to stoke the paranoia of white right wingers who cling to their guns and persecution complexes. Every action film that is made is…
Conservatism is about feeling insulted, the more insulted you feel the less you have to examine your own thoughts and actions
Awwww, are your fee fees hurt????
Okay. Two things:
The whiplash of “but Roseanne made a bad joke, why are we crucifying her?” to “Samantha Bee should be burnt at the stake!”
The pearl-clutching that crawls out when the alt-right seeks a tit-for-tat takedown is hilarious and sad. Their is no actual belief behind their poutrage, it is just for show.
He was the hero mayor of 9/11. He was the nation’s mayor. It just shows how despicable he truly is that in 16 years he has deluded himself into downright dementia. (I am not being glib. I think dementia is very real, tragic, and serious)
In spirit, isnt branding yourself a slave while yelling female empowerment, kinda similar to gutting the EPA while yelling your the ecofriendliest ever? Forget it, I give up. Everything just sucks right now.
I meant the empowerment rhetoric specifically. I know people are talking about the sex cult.
I’m not quite sure what some women think empowerment really is. Seems to me like someone’s mind is clearly mangled.
It’s interesting that they used the rhetoric of empowerment while being branded, as part of induction into a cult in which they were sex slaves, probably one of the least empowered states a woman could find herself in.
Any particular reason why everytime this cult is discussed, Mack’s is the only face we see?
Least surprising newly-revealed fact? They’re into Ayn Rand. Of course they are.
Jarrett gave a very dignified and diplomatic answer. However, this is only a teachable moment to people who are willing to learn. The Right wing crazies and wingnuts will just hunker down and pout about how the Left is infringing on their free speech rights. There is no teaching these assholes.
Once again, free speech only protects us from prosecution by the government. It doesn’t prevent us from being fired for saying shit that our boss doesn’t like or that violates the terms of our employment. Roseanne is free to say whatever she wants, ABC is free to cancel her show as a result of what she says. She won’t…
Damn grocery stores too cheap to pay cashiers a decent wage and now want me to do work for em? Don’t mind if I liberate a few carrots and onions...
That said, if I’m ever hanging out with an adult who cites “basic respect,” as the reason not to call their kid “buddy,” or something like that, then I probably don’t need to learn the kid’s name anyway, since their parents and I probably aren’t going to be super close.
