Why is it an uncomfortable coexistence? Is there a small part of you that thinks it’s okay for Katy Perry to get groped because you don’t like her?

Mercury is in retrograde! Thank god I am no longer accountable for my choices and impulses and instead can just be lead around by id and confirmation bias! Phew! Science is just, like, your opinion man!

Awwww fuuuuuuck... Jezebel commenters talking about whether divergent points of view should be allowed in discussions?

What facts? The arguments of both sides are not fact based in the least. The right believes the fetus is equivalent to a human being. Not a fact. A fetus is not a human being (but is a lower form of life). The left believes the choice should be the woman’s and the woman’s alone. Not a fact. Facts are descriptive…

Not really sure what that has to do with this? But I guess there are worse things for white people to be associated with than civil and positive discourse between two groups with opposing ideological viewpoints.

Because its the right thing to do. If Sanders is serious about becoming the next president, he becomes the president of every American and not just the people that voted on him and who agree with his talking points. By doing this, he shows he is willing to engage with people who are normally not his target…

The response was one heck of a lot more polite than I thought, and Bernie was pretty tough. From the reaction of many in the crowd afterwards, it looks as if Bernie DOES have the ability to communicate his ideas to the most conservative folks in this country and in a way that they can relate to. The myth that he would…

So Graf is going to lose some of her 22 major championships? How so?

I’m sure Serena will be just fine.

You know damn well this isn’t about not being ‘supportive’ of Serena. Someone congratulated an underdog for achieving something amazing; you wrote “Fuck You.” Being happy for Vinci and supporting Serena aren’t mutually exclusive.

Serena is one of the most amazing and pure athletes of the modern area. My one and only issue, and I’ll be watching for it here, is what an incredibly sore loser loser she can be at times. She makes Bill Belichick look gracious in defeat by comparison. I have rooted against her because of this at times.

She’s at it here too. My teenager has more maturity than this.

I’m super happy for Vinci. She was smart and relentless and played for her dear life. Serena, much as I like her, was inconsistent and peevish, and didn’t rise to the occasion.

But isn’t this only true if you know not only the person’s identity but have an understanding of that person’s life experience. For instance, a white person grow up in section 8 housing, writes a narrative about how structural inequality is related to the struggles of low income communities. Jaden Smith also writes a…

This one is tough for me. As an African American man, I can see why Alexie did this. He wanted help someone of color get a leg up in spite the fact the work is mediocre to just plain not good. In trying to raise the voice of someone of color - who traditionally has had and still has trouble having their voices heard -…

“Although I appreciate that he’s acknowledging his own power here, Alexie calling his desire to publish more writers of color “nepotism” is similar to someone invoking the bugbear of “reverse racism”—it implies that people of color are in possession of a certain amount of leverage that I’m really not sure we have.”

This amuses me way more than it probably should.

Okay so I watched the whole thing to see if somehow it changed things but no throwing in a “if anybody was raped I hope they get justice” doesn’t erase the vitriol you spewed before and after that. And what’s all this “I want to heart it from Bill” talk? We already heard from him. He admitted under oath he drugged…

Props to that female host. She didn’t let him represent the whole show. He went from “he didn’t do anything wrong” to “if it was my daughter I would have killed him” to “why would someone want to have sex with someone who’s asleep?” You could see that he was not used to getting asked more questions about his opinion…

That’s the part that got me too - “I wouldn’t fuck them, so Cosby probably didn’t either.” What. An. Asshole.
