I don’t think it’s reasonable to assume that every angry white man on public transit has John Wick’s combat skills. And it’s disrespectful to take this story and turn it into a teachable moment about the benefits of being a chickenshit.

Look, I know that you love the call-out and feel that maybe you can silence others by wielding bullshit labels like weapons. But you can’t. That wasn’t mansplaining and your attempts to prove how pure your politics are by throwing such labels around is toxic and transparent.

5 years PROBATION! Probation.....probation. Let’s stop acting like he was tossed in a gulag for solitary. He was convicted of a BURGLARY and got PROBATION. How that’s unjust or evidence of a biased legal system is lost on me.

Man, facts are sticky huh? Breaking into someone’s home, ruining the safety and sanctity of that space and stealing something that someone worked hard to earn money for is now minimized to “stealing $120".

Your dad is probably “working” a higher percentage of the time he’s on his shift than you and your white collar friends. Just because you’re in the office 60 hours a week certainly doesn’t mean you’re “working” more than 20-30 hours.

Swing and a miss, Katherine.

Eh? I don’t know, I think it sexualized their relationship (not the first time) as a way of illustrating the extent of the closeness. I see fellatio used all the damn time against women and men as a way to indicate their inferiority and subservience in relation to the beneficiary. Homophobic though? I don’t know, I’m

No, it means he’s calling him a whore. I don’t know Stephen Colbert on a personal level, but I am 100% sure he’s not homophobic. Cool attempt to gin up controversy though.

No, in this case it’s like if Pete Sampras only played with rackets from a certain batch because the frame is crooked making certain types of moves now possible.

THOT is sexist, in a vacuum. The issue is that inserting a ‘sexism’ argument into every scenario, like this one, is disingenuous. It’s not important because this man’s response to this brazen attack (while he’s at work) is not ‘telling’ of anything. It’s not ‘indicative’ of sexism in society.

I’m a white woman. Your white woman’ ing is switching the subject of concern in this situation from a black man assaulted by a white woman back to the assailant - because she is someone with whom you identify. Your white woman’ ing is noticing his mild reaction more than the violent assault that* prompted it.

No, we’re not. We can talk about it.

I know I am. You don’t get a pass on getting cussed out because you’re a girl.

Someone cross-post this to Jezebel where they seem to believe that women never, ever, ever do this.

I will. Don’t spit fire and act like an ass if you can’t fucking take it.

He said that his Islamic faith and his commitment to justice are intertwined, and he would not be a good Muslim if he turned a blind eye to the injustices the black community faces on a daily basis.

I always see lots of bad stuff said about Mad Catz and the quality of their controllers, but my personal view of them has always been biased since they gave me this:

Well, you’re wrong. Plain and simple. When a user signs up for a service there are clear “Terms of Service” that they accept. Even then - we are talking about a hypothetical. Twitter does and should have the right to police what is being put on their service. You’re beyond foolish if you believe otherwise. But, either

“Tweeted? wtf is tweeted? Anything that is tweeted should not be taken seriously. I live by that.”

Then you’re either lying, willfully ignorant, or a fool.

Your choice I guess?

I’d put even money Optimus here is either in college and going through the standard “I’m a libertarian without actually understanding what that

I wonder if they will replace Jontron’s voice with Nolan North’s.
