Your reply ignores all realities of governance. Kim Jung Un is not crazy, his rational goal is to stay in power. Therefore, a preemptive nuclear strike from North Korea to the US serves no purpose (neither does a preemptive strike from North Korea to anywhere else), unless his regime is already falling. If the…

Jezebel’s increasing worry that North Korea is going to nuke California absolutely ignores the laws of physics. North Korea has had the ability to nuke South Korea and Japan for close to a decade, but every North Korea missile launch nowadays is suddenly worthy of an article.

Meh. I don’t get the hate for this guy.

“I never said we were delicate flowers, my point was that we should not have to deal with basic ass non-arguments from people like you.”

“I’d like to see him try that crap with any of The Root staff.”

“Do we live in some vacuum where black people, because of the color of their skin, should be immune to criticism?”

It’s hilarious because the posters here normally HATE the people who say “both sides are the same,” but I guess they’re giving West a pass because he’s black.

“He dons the suit of white liberalism and political absolutes to chide a Black man, which is problematic”

This article only exists because The Root has a daily quota to meet for its bitching-about-white-people output.

And those two people were right, but hey, why let that stop you?

Right, because no one’s ever pointed out that Chris Brown and Bill Cosby are far more vilified than Sean Penn or Mel Gibson. You’ve cracked it wide open!

This statement is ridiculously general and inaccurate -

Yeah, because this place couldn’t qualify for the title “The Echo Chamber” just as well. Only difference is, the Echo Chamber here is focused around how evil white people are.

Well, if you go to a site like J of fucking course feminism is going to take precedence over race BECAUSE IT’S A SITE DESIGNED FOR FEMINISTS.

Egyptians, Romans, and lots of people have been slaves. Even white Jews! Who knew!

FWIW, I’m a Jez reader, too, and I don’t deny that its community has some issues (especially around race), but I never saw anyone say anything like this.... (If there’s some down-thread rando(s) that did, that’s hardly an indictment of all of Jez.)

Feelings are running high today, the takes will be scorching and rightly so. Everyone is bringing their own baggage and experiences to their analysis of this fucked up situation. With that said, I read Jezebel quite a bit and never saw anything like what you’re describing and if someone did post something like that…
