That’s always bugged me. I think people tagged on the "apartheid" part because he's from South Africa, but I don't think the claim was ever even that the mine was in SA. 

It’s such a gross take from a Supposedly Feminist Website to imply that men should be able to beat people up in order to... be a real strong man? I wonder if Jezebel would say the same thing about him if he’d been raped by a man and couldn’t fend off his attacker.

The “apartheid emerald” thing is a myth. Musk’s dad basically bragged to a Business Insider reporter that he bought a share in an emerald mine(in then-socialist Zambia), but there’s no evidence for the claim and he made his money as a developer. It’s just bad vetting on the part of Business Insider, who ran the claim…

I am glad one of them is significantly taller than the other, because otherwise they look so distractingly alike. In an unfortunately bland way as well. 

I’ve gotta say that it’s pretty mean spirited and nasty of you to make fun of the fact that he was horrifically bullied.

What the actual fuck is the point of this article? We SHOULDN’T hold people responsible for live on-camera assaults? We SHOULD but not take so long about it? The Academy is responsible for punishing American citizens of crimes they’ve been accused of but not actually convicted of? Some celebrities are worse than Will…

I have nothing positive to say about Elon Musk, but posting a link to a story about him being bullied so badly he had to be hospitalized to suggest that he’s not good at fighting is deeply shitty.

He just was admitted to a rehab facility, ,for “stress management”
Yes cocaine can sure stress you out

Will Smith also lost movies from Netflix and Sony, including Bad Boys 4. He is lucky he hasn’t been publicly sued or doesn’t get heavily blacklisted in the industry.

Lot of “whataboutism” going on in this article that in no way actually addressed the assault Smith committed on live television and the response by the organization hosting the show, about which this article is ostensibly titled.

No more or less than a supposedly feminist blog that is obsessed with Kim Kardashian as much as this one is.

I’m not sure a giveaway of tens of thousands of dollars to the middle and upper classes is all that popular among certain voters. But I haven’t seen the polling data on that. Might not be the political slam dunk you’re suggesting.

Why can’t you fool an aborted fetus?

This is where I am too. I have student loan debt and forgiveness would benefit me. I don’t need it. I’m doing a lot better than people in my area. My income is significantly higher than the median for my town. I was able to go to college because I had a place to live and was able to commute. I worked two to three jobs…

What about for people who never had the opportunity to go in the first place because they were too poor or for whatever reason didn’t get the grades? Are they arseholes?

It’s more complicated than that.

Sorry, but I just don’t get all this write off student loans noise. Imagine two women ten years ago, both single mom’s with kids. One takes out a loan to go to school, the other decides not to because by the time she has her student loan paid off the kids will be grown up so the college education really doesn’t help…

I hope no one protesting spent money doing it. Seems like they could have paid down their balance instead.

It may gain goodwill with people who have the debt but, for people who have paid it off or never had it to begin with, it won't sit well. Higher education is still very much something pursued by the middle and upper class. I don't think it's going to be well supported by a working class person who never went to…

Has this happened yet? Nope! Seems like it would be good to do that now, Joe!
