I agree, for a number of reasons. You have to stand up for yourself and what you believe in. If nothing else it sends a clear signal to the enemy that you will not be passive. You will put up a fight. You will resist.

That’s how biases work. They are subconscious. If you are aware of them and act on them that is outright racism.

Speaking with CBS News, Eric Paddock described his brother as “just a guy” without any religious or political inclinations. Eric told the Daily Mail he had “absolutely no indication he could do something like this.”

I used to think that W was the worst the Republican party had to offer. Worst as in his ideology was as opposite from mine as it could get, but that at least he seemed to care about the well being of the US (the version of the US in his head anyway. His disregard for US citizens in response to Katrina cannot be…

Hypocrisy means everything to this man. He thrives on it. The controversy his words and actions creates make him feel empowered that he could affect so many people so strongly and provides meaning for his pitiable little existence.

I thought you usually carried an M9 tranquilizer gun?

This is a relevant detail in understanding what happened last night. Due to the noise of the show, people were just standing around for quite a while either not hearing it or thinking it was fireworks. Tragic.

Are you actually a woman? I assume you identify as such based on your profile, again unless you are just a troll.

At it’s most basic level it isn’t even about feminism. You are making the argument that it is okay to treat someone abusively, sometimes very abusively, if they agree to work for you. You also seem to disagree that young single women can sometimes be a more vulnerable population. I don’t know what to tell you there,…

What kills me is the way these relatively privileged bar owners are calling out “entitled” black players who came from nothing and worked really, really hard to reach success. They are also the same people who complain every time a black player has conduct issues in college and goes to the NFL, but never the white…

To sum it up though, it all began when the NFL decided to start banning fun.

More of us than you might think, but I understand why you might feel that way.

I don’t completely understand the comment or what it has to do with race, but I am guilty of the wild animals things, with the exception of bears. I’m terrified of bears.

I have tried to introduce some of my fellow white liberal friends to the Root as a way to get them to understand better what’s going on and this is the reaction I’ve gotten every time. These are people who care, “allies” if you will, but fuck dude we are just clueless sometimes. TBH I felt that way a little at first…

Mine did :/

You sound like fucking Satan!

Abuse is, by definition, unacceptable. What the hell is wrong with you? Are you actually Trump in disguise or something? Or Satan? Or both? The last one would explain quite a bit actually.

Most people expect to be able to work in an environment where they are treated with respect. Most people, especially young women, cannot afford to lose their job AND home at the drop of a hat. Hef took advantage of these vulnerable women, knowing full well that once they accepted the job and moved in they would be…
