Replace “american people” with “japanese people” and your post still rings true. ;)

actually it is, no pun intended, not a black and white situation, many african tribes held slaves long before the transatlantic trade started, many tribes captured and traded members of other tribes, the picture of white men going inland to capture africans is wrong, this was mostly a mater of local tribes using this…

As someone who has Native American blood (Snohomish), and was raised in an Native American community (Tlingit/Haida of SE Alaska). My opinion on the skins, long before there was any hint of actual ties were simply this:

I wouldn’t wanna work at Blizzard, most of all on Overwatch. Probably can’t take a piss without someone getting offended about it.

This just proves people can be offended by just about anything.

Even though Microsoft’s smartphone app selection is dramatically inferior...didn’t they already do this with their phones a while ago?

One word: Stargate

You know windows phones OS is actually pretty great the problem is lack of app support and I blame Microsoft for that. They’ve basically pulled a Nintendo and failed to promote at all

Because of the American need to never let the French live down any of their military losses no matter how obscure?

Yeah we’re a country of cultural appropriation, and that’s not a bad thing.

I hate when a word become trendy. Misapplication dilutes the purpose. I’m a conservative leaning centrist, but accept that the term “mansplaining” has a point. I’ve seen it applied to, among other things, women condescendingly explaining statistics to other women and now this. Seriously? Can’t we expect more from…

Leveraging US technological prowess used to…

If 2/3rds of the company was worth $5000 and they had no idea that the deal was on the table... clearly it wasn’t exactly successful and they had no day-to-day involvement.

And this is part of why DC is really starting to hammer it hard to Marvel with comic sales. It’s great to see the DCU actually being fun and hopeful again, but in such a way that it feels planned out and not some rushed mess like the N52 was. It’s a bit messy right now, but it at least feels like they’re building to…

Oh great I wonder how many crappy sprays I will get before I get the skins I want?

Because I love Excel, and there’s no substitution for it. Therefore, I have to get the suite.

Because it’s the only approved word processing software at my employer.

I understand why people would feel like they couldn't talk about this. If we're being honest about feelings here, I honestly felt no sympathy for the women above. To be honest, I saved all my sympathy for their children.
