No.
No.
I think the main reason everyone discounted the legitimacy of Mo’nique’s points is because no one wanted to give up netflix. Rather than consider the validity of her points, people rationalized reasons not to give up netflix through finding reasons to find fault with Mo’nique’s request.
Why is momentum only discussed when it’s time to pay Black women? There are White actors who haven’t had a hit in a decade and still getting millions of dollars, Receipts. The “Gilmore Girls” don’t have any Oscars and besides that show being in syndication, they haven’t become bigger stars. However, Netflix is paying…
UTILIZING CAPS BECAUSE EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE THEIR BALLS AND GO HOME AFTER THIS COMMENT:
I fully concur. If wage equality was for people we like, none of us would get it. I get that she burned a lot of bridges in Hollywood, but so what? If a White guy can demand more money, why can’t a Black woman? She’s not mandating that someone give it to her, but not working until she gets what she wants. Though if…
Amy Schumer isn’t hot but she copped 13 milly..
But do we know her momentum? I mean she could be popping up in cities unbeknownst to you working on new material. I mean Chris Rock showed up in my city under the radar and put on a hell of a show.
This is the company that gave Rob Schneider his own show. Multiple seasons.
It wasn’t just non-verbal though. She told him she wanted to wait until the next date. She told him “let’s chill” and “let’s keep our clothes on” when he started getting handsy.
If you ever do end up getting married, I hope you marry someone who has enough money so your combined salaries allow you to live separately but next door to each other. That seems like such a good deal to me.
“It’s morally wrong to commit an unprovoked violent act against anyone.”
See that’s the thing, Mr. Lawyer. I am not proposing a law that states “punching people is a criminal offense unless they are Nazis”.
Let’s say I fall somewhere between a love tap and a hospitalization. The word “punch” is not a colloquialism.
There’s the law, and there’s what’s right.
Your scare quotes and slippery slope arguments are cute, but you’re full of crap. If you’re out in public in nazi regalia spouting nazi positions, you’re a Nazi, not a “Nazi”. If you’re a nazi, you are advocating for the violent oppression and genocide of multiple at-risk groups de facto. By spreading and normalizing…
Similarly a lawyer FWIW and my concern is that to assume the legal framework is the primary, much less sole, framework for evaluating action in they context is pretty fraught. We have ample evidence to show that Nazis either ignore or pervert legal and political norms as they see fit. And they do so in the service of…
“1. Listen to the people who have knowledge about the issues.
Shutting up allows you to listen to the people telling you there’s a problem. Unfortunately, men don’t like to be told to be quiet, wait your turn, or maybe something isn’t about us right now. Women don’t need to hear more from us about how we feel in the current climate.
Respectfully disagree with your respectful disagreement. Because I believe the proper thing to do is not simply start talking about these issues. The proper thing to do is:
I see the resident rape apologist is out and already starred. Fantastic. Here’s why I don’t buy that men “don’t understand what’s going on with women”: because it’s bullshit. There have been multiple studies that have proven over and over again that men do understand body language and non-verbal cues, they just choose…
