You’ve made a couple assumptions which are false.

Oh okay - I’ll be sure to tell him how much easier his life is based on his race next time I see him.

Really? Do you have it worse than the homeless white guy I walk past every day on my way to the bus? I’ve seen him sleeping between two dumpsters before.

Yeah white guys are just the worst!

That would be shady, but I also think it’s demonstrably not true. Beyonce, Kanye, Pharrell, Stevie Wonder, etc etc (countless others) have achieved mainstream success with a “black sound”

So, the crux of your argument is that if the music is “bad” (as judged by you and/or others...) then the artist is not allowed to draw from black influences or explore black sound... because it’s appropriating black culture to sell “bad music”

Oh look at this outrage guy - you’re so honorable eh? Really taking down a woman who has done more with her life than you ever will.

So they concluded that she didn’t intentionally violate anti-doping rules, and it was a substance that was NOT on the ban list until only what a few months before her positive test... and they still handed down a 2 year ban?

One of the saddest things about this is how everyone will continue to focus only on their issues of choice without seeing the bigger picture, and we will be no closer to meaningful change.

This is a fantastic read, and helps bring out something else that those on the left continue to overlook, their role in perpetuating the infighting....

Sounds like she found someone, which is good for her. But yeah reading through this I’m sure there were asshole “traditional” men who were awful to be around and deserved the snark she and her sisters gave... but like mocking the guy just trying to help their mom with the groceries... yeah I would have GTFO of there.…

Great write up, Jia! You continue to be the best thing about Jezebel :)

Is refusing to review it not his right?

This is how you do it:

If you don’t mind my asking (I haven’t seen it, won’t see it, so don’t care about spoilers). What exactly is sociopathic Randian garbage in Batman VS Superman?

I’m probably giving the movie too much credit... but I didn’t really take that as the movies opinion. The opinion seemed to be more about:
