I don’t really have beef with trigger warnings, but the OP was advocating it be censored from the article altogether. Warnings are reasonable. Erasing actual news because someone, somewhere might be triggered is not.

Thank you for this. It seems like everyone here is ignoring what people’s ACTUAL CRITICISM was and just doubling down on the “she shouldn’t be forced to have sex with anyone!” party line that is totally irrelevant because I haven’t seen one person on this thread so far actually argue that.

The OP never argued that and you know it. You might as well have asked them when they stopped beating their wife.

Except that’s not what the OP suggested. Whose comment are you replying to? Who here argued that she should be forced to have sex with someone?

Please show me.

Actual experts in PTSD have exploded the idea that protecting people from “triggers” is a psychologically valid way to treat trauma.

The tweets are news and should be reported. I am all for adding warnings to articles for sensitive material, but the idea that we should start censoring the content altogether is…

No one was saying she *had* to have sex with someone. The issue seemed to be about her reasoning for why she did not want to do a scene with this guy and the complex issue of STD testing in the porn industry.

Her original tweet *did* sound very homophobic as the only reason she seemed to be offering for not doing the…

The show definitely sidesteps the more nasty elements, especially when they are in Africa, I’ve noticed. But the Royals would never have been exposed to that. Still, it would be interesting to see Elizabeth really confronted with it. Maybe they will do that.

Eden’s government was disastrous, but I don’t have a lot of…

I am late as hell to this comment section but I just saw this video and I am choking. Thank you.

Dude, this argument is so old and has been exploded on every corner of the internet at this point.

Riverdale is tapping into our current wave of Dad™ appreciation. Hiram Lodge is also distractingly attractive.

Did some googling and wasn’t disappointed.

HA

Read what I said again. I didn’t say individual champions of workers rights or socialist were racists. This is about systems, not individuals with good intentions. I have yet to see a socialist government or a government controlled by a ‘workers’ party that fixed racism.

The point is, the idea that socialism or…

It was ethnic. They didn’t really care about the level of religious belief (but that didn’t help because, of course, the Law of History™ replaced God in the ‘Workers Paradise). The famous “Doctors Plot” incident (which was basically the Soviet version of the Dreyfus Affair) was not about religion at all. Soviet…

Who are you talking about, Bernie?

My castigation of Bernie has less to do with him being a “socialist” and more to do with the fact that I think he’s a hypocritical opportunist who decided to launch a gatekeeper, purity purge on the left at the exact moment an actual fascist was coming to power.

In a pure sense, yes. Workers rights would necessarily have to span across racial lines.

But in actuality, plenty of ostensibly socialist and communist governments, that champion ‘workers rights’ as part of their brand have been just as systemically racist as their capitalist counterparts (the USSR was officially and…

This is what I think is funny. There are literally, virtually all-white ethno-states that these people could move to that already exist. America is not now and never has been a “nation-state”.

Ok. Yeah. But how does this make it ok for Europeans to do?

You can be 100% Jewish and completely secular, like Einstein or Freud, who only ever identified as Jewish. It’s an ethnicity that has a prominent religious component, however, the religious component is not required.

Hell, David Ben Gurion was an atheist.
