I’ve been thinking about why so many people in the media and national politics go out of their way to avoid using the word “racist” when describing Trump.

There are a lot of possible answers, of course, including that some of those that would throw stones inhabiting glass houses—but I’ve settled on something that makes…

Said it before, will say it again: it’s not politics, it’s morality. If the greatest controversy around Donald Trump were, say, his position on revising the tax code, or even something as volatile as abortion rights, then fine, the PGA could say “whoa, we stay out of politics.” But it’s so much worse than that. It’s…

No, the tragedy of modern American politics is that one party is led by white nationalists and the other is led by spineless idiots convinced that the white nationalism is a phase and not the end result of 50 years of policy.

Stick to sports.

I could be wrong here, but I’m starting to sense a recurring theme in Republican discourse:

Also to Distraction Debbie here and all the morons who still identify as Republican; the ACA, Gay Marriage and Abortion are the law of the land. If you don’t like it then leave!

Funny how all you did was complain for 8 years about Obama yet you’re still here, and how Twittler can’t spend five minutes without screaming…

Bernie Sanders has said some of the same things as “The Squad” regarding Trump’s racism, as well as other issues critical of America. It’s never been suggested that he “go back to his country.” There’s a reason for that.

I’m an old person so I’d have to Google most of those terms but what I think you’re saying is “Man murdered teenager. Man took graphic pictures of dead teenager and posted to social media as trophy. Man’s followers and public media began victim shaming dead teenager”.

It’s like Dr. King always said, “No one knows what qualifies as racist as well as elite white conservatives who don’t know a single person of color.”

While a few prominent Michigan Republicans have spoken out against Trump’s racist comments, Trump supporter John James, who lost a senate bid in 2018 and is running again for another senate seat in 2020, hasn’t said anything yet to condemn Trump’s comments.

“Smug, greedy, well-fed white people have invented a language to conceal their sins. It’s as simple as that.”

Republicans Hate That Trump Said The Quiet Part Loud Again

Well this gay man found parts of the article to be quite homophobic. Calling a gay man “Mary” in an attempt to degrade and belittle him is pretty textbook homophobia.

Is it possible that it’s maybe not outright homophobia, but still pretty shitty to criticize someone for not being gay the way you want them to be (politician or not)?

I think this is pretty likely, but I predict that it was Perry’s father who was abusive and caused Perry’s brother’s death (if that’s how the timeline works; I’m foggy on who died or left first). I’m with Andrew in that this show would SUCK if it turned all of the abusive lens on the women.

Nicole Kidman justified season 2 with that courtroom scene. And Celeste demanding to cross-examine Mary Louise herself–as a plot development it’s rather soap-opera-y, but I think you have two actresses who can really ace it, so I’m excited for the finale. On the other hand, having Zoe Kravitz try to carry a heavy…

I am going to ignore what may or may not be true of the anonymously sourced story in IndieWire. That is an issue too hot button on AV Club. I want to speak to what is on screen.

You know nothing about me other than the fact that I have no respect for bootlickers.  I just find it pathetic that whenever anyone criticizes Musk, his fanboys reflexively feel the need to tell us how wonderful he is.  Your comment reminded me of NK broadcasters praising Kim Hong Un.  

There is nothing more quintessentially New York than an old white coot telling a Puerto Rican born in the Bronx to “go back to your country.”
