This article is one of the reasons I don’t come here as much.  I’ve been on lately because I am sick and at home. I see I haven’t missed much.  This is a fucked up article. 

I have C-PTSD with primary symptoms of major depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation.  Every day that I remain alive is something I literally fight for.  I’m seriously disgusted with Candice McDuffie and The Root in general for posting this.  This website has majorly declined over the past year but this is just…

This headline - and the entire article - has a very unsettling tone. Why are y’all making fun of someone for seeking health and wellness? Kanye won’t stop saying that Pete should basically die, and he encourages his fanbase to tell Pete as much - and to harass him. Really, McDuffie, what are you getting at here?  Why…

I don’t understand why we are headlining this with “Poor Lil’ Pete Davidson.” Pete was harassed for the entirety of the relationship by that POS Kanye, who also had his cult do the same. Putting that Poor Lil in front of it trivializes the online harassment. You would not put a “Poor Lil” in front of any other person…

Poor Lil Pete? Seriously what’s wrong with you? Are honestly making fun of someone that has said they have mental health issues for seeking mental health treatment? That's disgusting. 

Belittling someone for seeking therapy to process their own experiences is...something. Pete has been open about the fact that he has borderline personality disorder, a serious mental health condition with a high rate of suicide and other bad outcomes if not treated by a therapist.

That’s nice.

Imagine telling 2003 Dave Chappelle that he would be a Ben Shapiro figure in 18 years.

You can’t pick and choose who you’re going to make fun of.

You can’t pick and choose who you’re going to make fun of.

Once again, stupid motherfuckers run their mouths about “free speech” with NO understanding of the concept. If someone says some offensive shit, and the public rejects that stupid shit, that’s still free speech.

Man if that tour thing did happen (which I suspect it will not, for a variety of reasons), can you imagine how stale and busted the trans material in it will be? It’d be tripling down on doubling down, which he already did with this special, and he certainly isn’t gonna learn to not be a shithead about trans issues…

I’m trans. Yay? I mean, it’s just one facet of who I am.

Asking Netflix not to fund and showcase transphobic content is kind of a reasonable request, rather than “censorship”, in my mind.

Nina Turner ran one of one of the worst campaigns I‘ve ever seen in my life. She went into the race with a ton of name recognition and plenty of outside money. She started out trying to pass herself off as a sane, normal Democrat in TV ads but she couldn’t keep her crazy in check. Then came trash-talking Clyburn. Then…

What’s weird is the original progressive movement was an empirical approach to policy.

There is always some weird assumption that the policies advocated by progressive are ALWAYS better. They simply aren’t. And when those unpopular policies are delivered by a person who think Twitter re-tweets and “YASS QUUEEENNN” from white men living in Brooklyn counts the same as votes, you’re not going to be…

When progressives lose they go in one of two directions:

Woah. The politician with more local connections won a local election? That’s some real nefarious politicking there on part of the Establishment.

My least favorite part about volunteering for either Sanders run or more issue-based stuff with progressive groups is the sour grapes conspiratorial routine when faced with…

White people’s racial paranoia is also an epidemic in America.
