Miss USA pageant has allowed Muslim women to compete though. A Muslim woman even won the entire Miss USA pageant. So this isn’t about being inclusive of people of different religions since she’s not the first Muslim. So what is this about? What exactly is being celebrated since it’s not the inclusion of race,…

The misogyny directed at Sania Mirza is on another level because she’s an Indian woman married to a Pakistani man. With the Teen Miss USA contestant, I don’t see any reason to celebrate nor speak against the gal. It’s only when I see people celebrating practice of gendered dress codes or being bigoted towards an…

That’s where I struggle with this. It’s great that the concept of beauty and pageant wear is expanded but considering the practice is rooted in some very retrograde beliefs, it’s tough to really celebrate that. Your story about Rima Fakih reminds me of similar criticisms that tennis player Sania Mirza (Indian Muslim)…

Racist Trump supporters really are the shittiest people in the world.

Duke looks great. The Cowboys might be the best team in the NFL. The Red Sox got Sale. This is a fucking apocalypse of bad sports things. I swear to god if Penn State had gotten into the playoffs, I’d have to give sports up for good.

The only JETS I want to hear about is the Junior Engineering Technical Society.

I’m far more disturbed by the people being so dismissive of the greatest living Chinese filmmaker (a man whose 20s were spent as a victim of the Cultural Revolution) wanting to make a crossover hit.

Cuban Americans maybe? See also: Cruz, Rubio, the response to Fidel’s death of Cuban exiles... conservative leanings in general. I wish I could have a heart-to-heart with one of the most fervent Trump supporters I know, daughter of a Cuban immigrant, to find out how she can justify her anti-immigrant and even more…

Totally. No ill will towards the players, but they shouldn’t even be playing at PSU. How PSU avoided a NCAA death sentence is beyond me. PSU’s entire athletic department should have been shuttered. The amount of people that knew and didn’t report is horrifying.

Wallet inspector!

Kellyanne reminds me of a worn-out, fucked up animatronic at a pizza restaurant where the one eye doesn’t open all the way.

I’ve had so many arguments about this particular (inane) point, both in Kinja and real-life. Apparently the media is responsible for all the racist shit that is happening because they report on it and it emboldens the racists who only crave attention.

I shit you not, I had a co-worker last year interject herself into a conversation and say to me, “It’s all Obama and his people’s fault. You didn’t have all this racist stuff going on before he got into office”. Me and another co-worker (who is Black) were discussing BLM, police shootings, the fact that…

I seriously don’t know how to fight something like this.

That’s my point. A political T-shirt is inherently a political statement without context. It’s a lazy and, frankly, irresponsible means of speaking out, because it’s inherently unclear. If you have something to say, then say it. Wearing it as a T-shirt is the equivalent of expressing your politics by wearing…

Don’t forget gays sent to labor camps.

i like how you know their voting record by their skin color and demeanor. if they were white but wearing glasses and a cardigan maybe you would then know they voted for the good guy.

The only person I’ve seen skate by for longer with questionable skills, all while hovering around 500, is Jason Whitlock.

What “they”? You mean WE don’t care about us. Women continue to work with Deen, not just the new unknowns either. How serious does the industry have to be when female performers and fans refuse to shun him?
