This is funny, I just opened up xoJane last night for the first time in ages to hateread the IHTM essays and had to stop because on Android it brings you back to the top of the list regardless of how far down the article you read was and it drove me freaking crazy. Girl bye.

nah

You’re funny. LL is also an asshole, and a lot people didn’t even sympathize with her being abused by her boyfriend. She’s hardly treated well by the masses.

I don’t recall people as being particularly forgiving of Lindsay Lohan or Amanda Bynes, for that matter. I’m not sure this is the right example to drag out to make your point.

who was forgiving to Lindsay? She got a hell of a lot more shit than Azealia gets

...who, exactly, is forgiving towards Lindsay Lohan?

Yeah, Lindsey Lohan never gets blasted in the press or anything. Her career is going strong.

when I think of the public reaction to Lindsay Lohan’s many issues, “forgiving” isn’t really the word that comes to mind.

Getting drunk/high and being an asshole isn’t a mental illness.

Were you here during the Amanda Bynes years?

People have empathy for Lindsay Lohan? What planet do you live on? She’s a train wreck.

Nonsense. She is mean spirited first and foremost. Chalking up every form of assholery to “mental illness” is both hugely insulting to people who are mentally ill and a weak justification for the bad behavior of a nasty, homophobic bigot. Ms. Banks needs to slither back under her rock.

Being a female POC isn’t a “get…

Part of it may be that she is black and was never seen as some sort of America’s sweetheart, but I think another element compared to Spears, Lohan, Bynes is that Azealia Banks just spews a lot of nasty, nasty vitriol whereas some of the others were mostly harming themselves. I don’t think anyone is forgiving of Lohan…

Parenting is a continuous exercise in picking your battles.

Rejected Britney headlines:

I don’t know but I think it’s pretty low to call her a walking benzo.

Someone on the Bachelorette may not be there for the right reasons?

A deranged man who believes he is entitled to a woman is actually the most realistic about all of this in my opinion.
