For me personally, I vote pro-choice and pro-choice candidates. I teach my kid’s to respect other people’s bodies. My biggest issue is that when us men (overall) enter the picture it is often WAY lopsided in the wrong direction. I’m fairly confident that if women were the only people who voted on women’s issues…

I have decided (and we all know how much that matters), that I don’t ever want to see a man at a pro-choice/anti-choice demonstration again. Ever. Like ever, ever. This is an issue about womens’ bodies. People like me have no fucking business putting in my 2 cents. Also, men shouldn’t be able to vote on this shit…

I got the same vibe about him, a lot of subtle “bitches man, amirite” leaking out from the cracks in the letter. I’m not saying I’m not sympathetic to his situation, and I’m not saying he’s not doing a great thing for his family. I am and he is. What I AM saying is that it sounds like he’s on a bit of a woman-hating…

The way that he writes off all women being assholes because they don’t want to put up with him always putting his brother first?

It’s wonderful he’s so devoted to his brother but newsflash, he comes off as a gigantic asshole for not understanding the difference between “Bros” and a partner and why they might perceive…

Yeah, but some people don’t like to ask themselves or others those questions because they may come to the ethical conclusion that they should leave those subjects alone. And then how are they going to trade on “edgy” art?

I’m not ready to give the Walker kudos. As a local who loves the sculpture garden & the Walker, under normal circumstances, this has given me serious pause. Yes, art is intended to create dialogue and conversation, but the Walker’s director could have easily had conversations with Mdewakanton Sioux before this was…

Or, here’s a wild idea: The space is dedicated to hosting members of the tribe who can tell their OWN stories instead of having someone else take their history and use it for their own ends. Just a thought.

I don’t think most people here are saying that you can’t make art about people and cultures that are different from you. It’s that you need to do a lot of research and have a lot of conversation with the culture in question to avoid your art coming across as inaccurate or downright offensive. This artist took a pretty…

He pushed it as part playground. He gets no points. None.

“Do we really want to live in a world in which white artists are not allowed, because of the color of their skin, to create art about the suffering of non-whites?”

That might be a part of the dismantling of white privilege. And thats the part that most white people can’t wrap their heads around. No, when there is a more evenly distributed balance in power, we might NOT be able to do every single thing we want to, every single time. Equality can feel like oppession to the…

I don’t know how its not the whites’ “story”.

Why wont you think of the real victims here? The white people.

The way perpetrators can support victims is by asking victims how perpetrators can support them and then doing what they say.

I know this article is about some serious issues, but can we just take a minute to ask, is that thing art?

Without consulting and considering the multifaceted points of view of the oppressed, YES, yes that is exactly the kind of world I’d prefer to live in.

That is part of what makes it so disturbing.

You dont like it when the subjects of an art piece are offended by the art piece? You dont believe that the subjects of an art piece should have a say about the art piece?

I will say that the way Apple allows you to swap keyboards on the fly is absolutely some of the worst and most disgusting design I’ve ever seen. When you click that little globe icon and it switches keyboards, it’s utterly confusing and to me, almost unusable. I’ve uninstalled keyboards time and time again because of…

You had me at “ditch Apple”.
