This has happened from dawn of US. The entire push to the west was because poor people could not afford land.

California is one of most expensive states to live in. This is like someone saying they must live in Manhattan to be happy, so they live in phone booth.

As someone that fled war zone as refugee to come to America I do not understand why so many young, bright, and intelligent people go to very expensive parts of California to live.

Why are we concerned with artists and activists and where they can be artsy? Thus is tragic because of people not because of artistry. We don’t need to do anything special for these people because they are artists or activists. People need affordable housing but just being artsy doesn’t mean you should automatically…

What does this even mean? I can’t parse it out. Are you saying those experiencing an illness shouldn’t share their narrative unless it’s in a socioeconomic context?

I didn’t say worse, and I don’t have any money

She wasn’t famous until she was like 40, though. Before that she was raising two daughters by herself on a shoestring, from what I understand. So it’s not that she has nothing to which she can compare her current circumstances. So she can talk about her present difficulties with the perspective of having had other…

I think that it can sometimes be very challenging for people who do have financial and social privilege to admit that they’re struggling with mental illnesses, because of the assumption that if you have financial security you shouldn’t “complain”. I know that as a kid who grew up in a very abusive yet well-off home, i…

Yet a white American feels sufficiently entitled to critique a movie she hasn’t watched.

And when white people are critiquing a movie made by Chinese people for whitewashing maybe they should shut the fuck up.

The people who think Trump is comparable to Hitler need to stop being such idiots. It’s fucking disgraceful. There’s a very slight chance he might be that bad, but at this point you just sound like a lunatic.

Ok, back up a little bit. She’s a mom. She is in a position as First Lady, that she probably never wanted. No mom wants to be told by some stranger that their kid is different. Even if the video is as innocuous as he suggests, she probably didn’t interpret it that way.

I’m not clear on the maker’s age but if they are also a minor it better explains why this video was made. And I totally recognize that the video maker had good intent as well but its still pretty cruel to ambush a child in public with your personal opinion like this.

You may want to re-read my comment? I didn’t in any way say they should get a pass. I called their threats idiotic. To be clear: I do not agree with nor find it appropriate to threaten people with lawsuits over stuff like this when you hold the highest executive office.

A couple of things.
1. She isn’t using her newfound power, she is employing the same technique the Trump’s always have, threaten to sue without following through.

I wouldn’t have any issue with the first family suing for something that is demonstrably untrue, just not the president. Unfortunately, you can’t sue for shitty racist opinions, but if some asshole thought “malia cheats on tests” would be a good headline or something similar, she’d have my full support to sue. The…

This is the rare time I completely agree with Melania. There are a whole bunch of adults who need to shut the fuck up arm chair diagnosing a child. I hope she uses her full power to dump a ton of bricks on people who can’t keep her sons name out of their mouths. I know this particular guy isn’t trying to score…

I am in no way a Trumpkin, not even a little bit so my comments are solely focusing on the fact that center piece of all this is a child. The video maker’s intent wasn’t to be cruel and was motivated in raising public awareness but he still put a child up for public ridicule and wild speculation about his…

I have an app called Ambiance. You can download any types of sound from white or brown or whatever noise to rain or wind or the sound of a shopping mall or whatever and you can mix them together into whatever type of mix suits you. Also has a timer and can fade out for sleep and in to wake you up if that’s what you…

Well duh, he’s a boxer. Those are best dogs in the whole wide world yes they are yes they are.
