Oh, thank god. I was getting...clenchy. I’m worried that my sarcasm detector is defective.

Yeah, no. I'm not going to shut up when a homophobe spouts off.
I grew up in Westmoreland County. I feel for you.
Honestly, people who think it’s that easy really need to TRY IT. Just one day oughta be enough.
Yep, I sure have a blasé attitude about it, idiot. Until you spend significant amounts of unpaid time DAILY writing referrals for administrative discipline which means nothing to these kids (they don’t care about suspensions, they don’t have recess or other privileges to take away, and parents don’t approve ASD’s) and…
Oh my god! A celebrity has their own opinions but knows how to be respectful to people she doesnt agree with!? how crazy is that!?
So it doesn’t matter at all that the actress wanted to leave the show? Death (in most TV series), especially in TV series that have lots of death, is really the best way to eliminate a character when the actor or actress no longer wants to be a part. What reason would they have to concoct that would make sense for a…
I get the outrage about the lack of diversity but if an actress wants to leave a show, why shouldn’t her character be killed? Am I missing something?
Knee jerk yourself: Black contestants were more likely to win than one would predict even assuming a completely unbiased voter pool.
I’ve watched with my husband for the last 13 years. I am a 31 year old, educated, white woman and he is a 33 year old, educated, African American man. Neither of us are middle aged white women.
So four African American winners in 15 years is 26.7 percent of winners while they are 13.2 percent of the population. They have been voted as winner at twice the rate one might expect from demographics alone, yet it’s still not enough.
So, basically racist, sexist bigoted comments are okay, just so long as:
I get the not liking someone who texts back at 3am, though. I would be a bit creeped out if a dude I just met texted me at 3am. Also, do I want a guy with such a crappy sleeping schedule? Things to ponder.
Shut up. Stop clapping.
I’m not white, but it’s worse for black people to be put in their little corner over there, with their little superhero who will get a cameo in an avengers movie, and have everyone go “OH WOW THIS IS SO GREAT FOR PROGRESS!”. It’s not. It’s divisive. It perpetuates the same things Coates is purportedly against. Coates…
You know a good way to figure out what “fleek” and “shade” mean without reading one of these dumb explainers? Hang out with people who actually use those words organically!
Is there a more inane thing to rant about than dissecting how others attempt to understand language that isn’t their own? This is almost as old as language itself and everyone has been doing it their own way for millennia.
Wow are you in sixth grade something? Coates is not a great writer. His writing is insipid and uninspired. He’s so fucking literal.
Waa!!
nah, it’s definitely The Guy You Pay To Write Things About Black People, writing The Token Black Person Comic With Intentionally Controversial Name, to prop up the already long running SJW PR Stunt of Token Black Guy That Shows We Are Progressive in Avengers 5 or whenever they release the next cash printer.
I wonder…
