We need to also address the “you have no right to complain” argument— but that’s being injected into this argument from the outside and not really relevant to the specific point of this article. Jennifer Lawerence, Susan Sarandon, and Robin Wright are absolutely being slighted by the gap in pay. They should take a…

I didn’t perceive that tone at all. It was pretty even and honest. I’d like to see more criticism of pop feminism. Jezebel is rife with conservative attitudes masquerading as progressive. It needs to be addressed.

do they have real pockets?

This essay seems to be going over a lot heads.

She addresses that.

‘Having no right to complain” isn’t what the article is about.

Clinton is an example of this that should be discussed in a more general essay on pop/neoliberal feminism. This article is pretty focused on one aspect: the wage gap between male and female performers.

This person should. Clinton is a proponent of policies that really open doors for the already advantaged.

No. You don’t understand the argument.

I think what she’s getting at is commodity fetishism.

Trickle down in this sense seems to me giving a legitimacy to the issue that will eventually open the conversation for wage workers— but, just like the economic sense, it won’t; the poor and middle class will continue to be dogged by the myth that those at the top are also working for the interests of those at the…

Zero Dark Thirty goes into the category of film where every single native English speaking actor couldn’t pronounce the name Ahmed without butchering it.

Same with me. That show, like most tv, can suck it.

I also hate watch the show. It’s short and there’s a lot to learn about how people perceive Dunham/Apatow false satire (it’s also sad that people don’t understand what satire means since the term has been watered down by self-congratulatory comedians).

Doesn’t it all sorta come out equal when douchey guys are rating a show about douchey women?

I can see it both ways.
