OK. What’s amazing to me is that we’re spending time debating Schmeckle-gate, OK? When Huma Abedin, who has connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, who was connected to the chief financier of al-Qaeda, is his wife and has top security clearance.

What a sad clusterfuck of sexism and Islamophobia... and all about a woman they know nothing about. Shameful..

New Theory:

You feel like that? Interesting. Here are my feelings: I wrote this post and I am not white.

Honestly, I don't think she would care. I get this vibe from her that she identifies more with her White side than her "ethnic" side even though she can't pass (for White, that is) as much as she wishes she could. Girl looks like a high grade mestiza.

Speak for yourself, I'm a minority and this definitely annoys me.

I think a big part of the problem is that people are so clueless that the term "Gypsy" refers to an actual group of people who are oppressed to this day all over Europe etc. So many people have been shocked when I've told them that the term "gypped" comes from "gypsy" and is pretty friggin rude. They think of them…

I think people who don't know any better (and who aren't likely to bother to find out) think this is okay because of UK and US shows about "gypsy" weddings. However, you'd think famous people would have at least one adviser on staff who is halfway clued in to the world outside their own little celebrity bubble, but…

She's a baby killer. I've been following this story for months & her story doesn't pan out at all.

I remember that VERY well and am still disgusted with Jezebel for it.

While we're bringing up terrible things they did, let's not forget that they're the only English language outlet I know of that published the name of the victim in that high-profile gangrape case from India and didn't subsequently remove it or apologize when it became clear the decision to publish her name in the…

Jesus Christ, the amount of victim blaming in that conversation is disgusting.

I remember that. Especially when people talk about what a wonderful feminist paradise Jez used to be (as opposed to the shithole it's supposedly become).

lol another of my account was deleted in the past because i brought up the time they posted a picture of a women getting raped without her permission.

I find it depressing she was arguing about consent laws as if 13 should be acceptable. Where do we stop then? Lower them to 13? Why not 11 then? Why not 5? Why have them at all? So gross. I don't care if the girl had done drugs in the past or even had sex. She was raped. A girl's or woman's past does not have anything…

Tracy i will never forget this article you wrote on Roman Polanski in which you screencapped a convo with a friend, the convo was vile it was full of "slut shaming" and victim blaming a 13 year old.

Fuck the Roman Polanski apologists. It is never okay for a 44 year old man to bang a 13 year old. Everyone should agree on that, god damn it. It makes me sick that he has so many defenders. "OH BUT HIS WIFE WAS MURDERED" well I don't give a fuck.

I mean, c'mon now. You may take our lives. And our freedom. And our economic safety.

People think when you say "I don't like xyz" they hear "I don't like you." That's what I'm seeing here.

Yeah, I think people just have a problem with the tone. "It's bad" reads differently than "I think it's bad", even if we're obviously supposed to realize that OP doesn't actually perceive him/herself to be the arbiter of what's objectively good or bad.
