Deadspin hasn’t had a comment section since they fired everyone a couple years ago

Wow the whole point of both sides of the argument went completely over your head!

This is wild ‘journalism’ - they were acquitted, BY A JURY, and here we are dedicating a few hundred words to smear these men further, after the fact.

And women could not make false rape allegations. Sadly both happens. So people have to protect themselves.

I doubt that happened. 

Players don’t trade themselves, please kylie don’t ever write about sports again it’s pathetically uninformed.

The very fact that they’re doing it means they already fucked up. KOTH ran for 13 seasons and the last 4 or 5 were already a big dip in quality. Not to mention the deaths of multiple cast members.

What is the point of this comment? Why make comments on posts you didn’t read?

“I’ve seen some critics handwave away the backlash to Velma as just racism and misogyny.”

Sure, you could make the connection that buying the Harry Potter game directly lines She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named’s pockets, but as we know, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism.

Aww poor baby thinks presenting something implies approval of said thing, please don’t try to criticize media with this mindset.

Only focusing on the bad faith criticism of a small but vocal group while ignoring the overwhelming of good faith fair criticism is the go-to method of defending a show these days, rings of power paved the way for velma

The backlash is because the show is pure shit. It has nothing to do with race and EVERYTHING to do with it being a poorly written unfunny catastrophe.

Kind of sounds like he’s just going to grow up to be a pimp.

It seems really strange to frame what her son knows about sex work and periods, i.e things his mother told him about those things, is more comprehensive than what most men know. That is clearly a ridiculous thing to say.

I’m sure both boys will grow up and have perfectly cromulent attitudes towards sex, sex work and their mothers....(*insert eye roll here).

Alternate take - it’s completely inappropriate to explain sex work to a 5 year old.  This is gross.  

Beyonce doesn’t care about this stuff, it’s her famously toxic and stupid fandom

This pre-frontal cortex argument is another argument that needs to go away. It’s so laden with problems that I’m surprised that the person who wrote this article — a person who is presumably over the age of 25— doesn’t understand the nuance of its danger and its absurdity.
