So, while I would love to see the dethroning of Trump ... how is this different than what the governor of North Carolina is doing right now, that every liberal (including myself) is lambasting as an affront to democracy? Or the rhetoric we criticized Trump for throwing around before the election?

And apparently the writers of Gawker media. BUT NO ONE ELSE

Is the purpose of this article to browbeat money out of guilty liberals while demeaning their beliefs and dismissing their support? And... I mean if that is the case is that tactic effective?

Fucking liberals. You all are the most racist of them all. I’m Hispanic and I celebrate Thanksgiving. This is not a white holiday. Maybe it was once for the conquerors but more most Americans I know of celebrate Thanksgiving. I know of many Navajo families that do as well.

They’ve fallen into the liberal trap of being ridiculously snarky while assuming people automatically agree with them and already fully understand what they’re talking about. EX: the article on International Men’s Day. Instead of explaining why people roll their eyes at it they posted a snary article that made it look

Words mean things. The intro to this high school-caliber essay says that Americans across the country will be marking the holiday weekend by injuring Native American people and destroying land.

natural gas pipeline =/= oil pipeline

No, it isn’t.

completely agree. I’ve really been turned off by Jezebel since the election, and I’m as upset about the outcome as anyone. Their condescending snark where its not deserved it out of control.

exactly this. I’m American Muslim Desi and let me tell you, brown people in my community LOVE Thanksgiving.

Why does this post have to be targeted at white people only? Everyone else, except black folks (whose ancestors were forced to come here as slaves) should be called out to help Native American protesters too. I’m American Muslim/Desi and I can say that many South Asians, Muslims (as well as Middle Easterns and

The shaming tone attracts trolls, too.

Okay, I get it. It is horrible and it makes me angry and I am going to tell my children the truth about what Thanksgiving is REALLY about.

So those of us who aren’t white don’t have to donate? This sort of judgmental, divisive, self-righteous verbiage reminds me why I stopped reading Jezebel years ago. (I only came back once Gawker was shut down.)

Could do with a bit less shaming tone. It’s not like native peoples getting fucked in this country is new.

I guess Black people and Hispanics get off donation-free? Do white conservatives get to keep their money as well?

Now playing

It is true that mostly the Masters of the Universe are white dudes.

Sorry, I have limited funds to donate, and I chose to donate to a local community shelter that will directly help those in my community.

Both sides here have acted inappropriately. The force used by security against the protesters is too much, while the protesters have tarnished their own cause by breaking the law again and again by setting fires, vandalizing property, and trespassing.

I am all for offering a suggestion of some way to support those who are doing good work and making sacrificing for the betterment of others. While I make regular charitable donations, I could do better, no doubt.
