You just Neil degrasse tysoned this article and I love you for it.

That's terrible if it is real, but news outlets gotta stop posting this dubious junk. Anyone with half a brain has figured out that people who post this kind of stuff get a shit ton of donations, scam artists are crafty. When these things come out as fake they hurt communities that actually face this sort of…

I thought it was someone being sarcastic, but I think it's just ambiguously worded.

Hate reading for life!! I started reading Jezebel a while ago too, and I used to read it a lot less critically than I do now. On any site where the writing has a distinct slant it's important to call out inaccuracies and other bullshitery. Honestly, it seems like Jezebel just finds any reason under the sun (whether…

So? Someone doesn't care about the countless Internet thinkpieces that are posted about them on the Internet. Each with claims more extreme at how she's oppressing people then the next. And I'd wager in every new article this site posts about her they link to the "ratchet culture and racism" article. At this point…

Don't bother, my troll radar is going off for goodgirltabby. She has literally commented on every post about this article and when people call her out on being wrong she doesn't even acknowledge their points. All efforts to supply her information disproving her insanely loaded claims seems to go unnoticed by her, and…

It was the prosecutors who fed her that thread. God, you are like not reading any of the articles posted but for some reason commenting on them all. Reading and information are you friend, unjustified feels reasoning is not.

Bayonseeee

This is a bit off topic but somewhere it seems the "privilege" idea began getting applied to every spectrum of "not the most ideal thing" parts of life. It was a really helpful model for illustrating why people who were literally owned as slaves might have a more difficult time than others in a system that was built…

Maybe, idk I have to think about this some more. I still feel like its wrong to out anyone though, but this comment is a little old for me to vehemently defend my Jezebel comment. Although this is a bit anecdotal (and by no means quantifiable evidence), as a person who struggled with my sexuality growing up in the…

Its fine, I have a really dull job. I'm not trying to be an Internet jerk to you, most of my frustration is towards jezebels quick response to writing about questionable journalistic integrity, but not necessarily having much themselves. For instance they harshly criticize vogue for not being body positive, but in…

Could you spare a few iq points for lil old asinine me? Man, I was done with you but when you notify my with your personal attacks I just can't help it. Just chill please. Also you agree with me but you think my opinion is dumb? Say what? Look my entire point is that Jezebel has a habit of saying one thing then…

All I can say is bye. Listen, you've proved you have no respect for opinions even a smidgen different from yours in this thread. You've proved you have no problem with using negative language and personal attacks to make a non point other than I am dumb and you are smart. I'm not insulting or saying I am superior to…

Your first sentence is lolwut. And also, yeah be less insulting, but that's what I get for trying to make any sort of point on jezebel. I give up, you win. If I keep going you are just going to keep changing your argument and insulting me personally for some reason. Sorry for trying to point out that no one,…

Oh my god. You're a semantics warrior. I didn't say you were advocating for outing republicans. I was defending my analogy because both situations involve reporting identities people are, at the time, uncomfortable about releasing themselves. And if you want to argue republicanism is inherently a homophobic viewpoint…

Better yet, if a closeted republican man or woman were to take their life as a result of Jezebel publicly reporting on them being gay, would that not fall somewhat squarely on jezebels shoulders? Would it have been just as irresponsible to out someone still trying to work through that? Someone who probably grew up in…

No because people are arguing this had everything to do with her being "fraudulent." It's never justified. If someone doesn't want to face a stigma associated with being gay or straight or trans or whatever, it isn't some crappy publications job to out them. You can't just justify it for one case and then be okay with…

For a site that has run stories trying to out closeted gay and bisexual republican men and women, then posts an article completely discrediting their own reasoning for doing so, Jezebel seems an apt place to post this.

Yes, except this site and gawker both actively write articles trying to out gay and bi republicans and represent it as fair game, even considering the hardships it may cause some of the people. This article smells a bit like a ploy to divert bad attention Jezebel has gotten lately.

Isn't this the same site that asserts outing gay republicans is fair game? I feel like this article is some sort of obvious distraction for jezebels mess up this week.
