That’s some fine concern trolling there.

But it’s totally unfair to call either Obama or Sanders a “Dudebro”. They are no such thing.

It’s like saying that white males are voting for Bernie because he’s a white male. That’s also bullshit.

Thank you Berniebro for assuming that women voting for Hillary are thinking with their vaginas. That’s not at all condescending.

the most important issue of the day is the systematic oppression of over half the population, on all fronts.

The reaction you got had little or nothing to do with differences in policy proposals or voting records, or in how ardently Sanders has proclaimed his feminism. It’s just raw Battle of the Sexes in political form. To them, you’re a failed feminist because you’re a woman who’s supporting the candidate who has a penis.

Berniebro’s refer to a specific phenomenon of anti-feminist/MRA types supporting Bernie. Sadly, MRA’s are out there and polluting discourse everywhere. And a portion of them support Bernie. This is not intended as an insult to regular Bernie supporters.

My interpretation is that he thinks economic justice is life-threateningly important and that hot-button issues and identity politics has been used as a wedge issue to prevent politicians from actually addressing the colossal economic unfairness that we are facing.

Hiya, hope you get better soon! I’m going to recommend anything by the remarkable Gabriel Garcia Marquez, especially One Hundred Years of Solitude (I’m shocked that it was mentioned in only two other replies to you, as it is a truly brilliant work), but also The Autumn of the Patriarch, Love in the Time of Cholera,

I know, I’m familiar with the history, my point was just that objectively the two terms mean the same thing, so it’s kind of silly that one is de rigeur with the progressive left while the other draws a vitriolic response from those same people.

Sorry, but I couldn’t make it past “authentically leveraging his privilege”. As I get older I’m just getting more and more sick and tired of academic identity politics circle-jerk language like this.

I’ve never understood why “people of color” is an acceptable descriptive term but “colored people” isn’t. The former makes you a sensitive and considerate progressive ally, while the latter makes you some racist who’s stuck in the past. The terms mean literally the same thing.

Tell me why I should be ashamed of my skin colour.

You wouldn’t get any satisfaction from some good cunnilingus? Or well-manipulated vibrators/dildoes? Or from your partner caressing and fingering you sensually down there while kissing you passionately and massaging a nipple with his other hand? You derive no joy or arousal whatsoever from touching his penis in any

Ok, those pics of his broken cup made me wince in sympathetic agony. Good grief. On a related note, can someone please explain to me why football players no longer wear cups? I couldn’t imagine playing a violent contact sport like football without wearing one. What gives? Do they all just want to show the public the

So then, you’re a woman pretending to be a man in this post, right? Because no actual man would ever post some stupid question about why a hard blow to the nuts would be painful and a big deal. Only someone without nuts could ever wonder that.

Obviously the lack of diversity in the Academy and among this year’s Oscar nominees is frustrating and Hollywood is clearly in need of reform, but vague boycotts like this leave me wondering what the end game is, and what will placate and satisfy the activists and boycotters? Would they be OK with a couple of black

Good, this is a positive step in the right direction, even if it’s a low-level coaching gig. There’s no reason a woman couldn’t be an NFL or major college football head coach. There’s no lack of knowledge of the game among women. I have female friends and relatives, including my mom, who can get deep into the weeds

Rahm Emanuel is a megadouche and I hope this protest movement succeeds in running him out of office. Unfortunately, if that were to happen, he’d just be replaced by another out-of-touch Chicago Dem machine pol. That city’s government is a joke.

Well, in that wretched climate, people have to do SOMETHING to lighten the mood and to keep from going crazy.
