To imply Korean/Asian people eat dogs? Yes, that’s racist, are you trying to be an obtuse twat?

Recognizing the implicit biases you may hold. That's the important part. 

Nobody substantial has ever said this, ever. The question is simply one of trying to recognize the implicit biases you hold. As a basic test of this, if the answer to the question “If I say this, will Women of Color have to explain my shit to me” is “yes”, then don't say it. 

They also really hate that she's not white. 

Every kid is different. There might be developmental or emotional issues we don’t know about. Maybe back off the criticism of a strangers parenting?

I mean, Fat Joe asked him for his favorites, not the greatests. Everyone he listed are enjoyable to listen to, so I can see how they could be someone’s favorites. His list could have been much much worse. 

He was asked for his personal favourites, though; not GOATs or most prolifics. If someone asks you for your favourite ice cream flavour, you don't look up the top selling brand on Wikipedia. 

“Fake moral outrage” is the new “SJW” — it says a lot more about the person saying it than the person they’re complaining about.

As someone who is still watching Grey’s Anatomy, I can attest to this. You just....you can’t just stop watching. You’ve invested too much. It’s like people who get a junker car that they’re gonna “fix up one day” but they never get to it but can’t seem to get it out of their driveway (LOOKING AT YOU, DAD).

The issue here is that if you take out the rapey shit from the past couple seasons, the show IS still really good. That’s why we’re still watching. The rapes weren’t insignificant (it was one each of the two main female leads who were brutally raped each of the last two seasons, and at least one of those rapes led to…

That’s not true at all. Based on thousands of marital records, we know that most medieval common women married between 18 and 22. Marriages at 16 were rare for “common” people. We also know from their own writings that consummated marriages as young as 14 among the aristocracy were rare too. Because they believed…

I’m using it objectively? What? When I talk about why I am not enjoying a show, I’m probably not going to be using “objective” measures all that often. It is rare that I would say, “The story and characters are so compelling but, my goodness, that uneven stitching on Claire’s sleeve? Ruined it for me.”

The problem is that EVERY SINGLE major villain the show has given us so far has been a rapist: Black Jack, Geillis, Bonnet, Brown. (Yes, there have been other antagonists, but these are the major ones.) Using rape as a way of conveying “they’re bad” is lazy storytelling. It’s fine the first time, if it’s handled well,…

They probably haven’t complained about “the murder and violence” because it does not feel gratuitous and manipulative. Whereas the sexual violence does. See the distinction? I mean, you are saying it yourself. The show uses rape as a lazy plot device. And that’s both repulsive and bad writing. And yes, if they…

I hate it when PTSD gives you delicate sensibilities.

I just said that people have been criticizing gratuitous violence in media for decades now. Where did you get the idea that rape was unique and not subject to similar “outrage”?

I think people have been criticizing gratuitous violence in media for quite some time. Why wouldn’t they criticize gratuitous rape?

The supposed historicity in GoT is a sham though. Particularly in relation to women. Medieval women mostly married in their late teens and twenties. Even noble marriages that started with a young child-bride were almost never consummated until later. Women died in childbirth at a much lower rate than in GoT too. Also,…

I’m tired of that excuse. GRRM wrote what he wanted, because he wanted to. There are a million ways to show that a fictional universe is harsh and cruel besides only brutalizing women. 

I have not read the books either, but I have also noticed the frequent comments from book readers who defend bad story choices as “well, that’s how it is in the books!” So what? It was bad there, and it’s bad here, and the showrunners really could have chosen to deal with such and such bad plot point differently, just…
