Among other things, I think it is erroneous to assume that the only misconduct that could be involved by an officer in the shooting of a civilian would need to be race based. I’m not comfortable looking at a situation where an innocent man was mistakenly approached by a police officer and who was shot and killed…

Why is the media - including Jezebel - letting the assailant plant misinformation and lies? Why is the media choosing to go only with what the assailant says? That’s the narrative you’re choosing to create?

honestly? because it’s a country that treats immigrants terribly. ISIS depends on western nations treating Muslims bad, because that’s how they recruit. Most Muslims would never, but after 10+ years of being spat upon, suddenly ISIS begins to look good. So ISIS preys on nations that treat Muslims bad, in order to spur…

I think it’s because how proudly secular France is and how it alienates Muslims which in return radicalizes some of the Muslims.

People on here basically have a stick up their ass about comedy when it doesn’t fit perfectly within their worldview. Dave’s monologue was amazing and hilarious. It might not have been delivered in a nice SJW approved way, but it was overwhelmingly forward thinking and Pro Black. End of the day he’s still a guy…

Commenting on the ignorance of white people on the depths of racism that surrounds them has been a feature of Chappelle’s comedy for years. It might be a lesson worth paying attention to. Or we could assume the most cynical motivations so we can ignore a relevant voice.

They lost me at safety pins

But white men and gays were completely complicit in this. Jews too. White men control some pretty large institutions in the US — Club CEOS, Wall Street banks, the tech world, police and fire departments, the ADL, etc... And you all sat there and said nothing for 18 months. At least some military and national…

It’s absolutely disgusting and I’m so upset President Obama has to teach this imbecile to do his job, but he’s doing it because he cares about this country. He’s a far better person than I could ever be, because it wouldn’t be ME!

They should let Chappelle host it every week.

A couple of things:

1) I was honestly shocked to hear Chappelle say ”nigga” on national TV (even at 11:30 at night) and I imagine the conservatives at FOX and their ilk will cry about how Blacks can get away with it the on the“librul” media.

2) His joke about ISIS and the…

Wait, so minority women do our part (like we’ve ALWAYS done) and it’s still get back to work. How about white America gets to work on themselves? How about you so-called progressive white Jezzies stop coddling your Trump supporting relatives and loved ones and express your disgust?

EXACTLY! And they wonder why WOC side-eye the fuck out of White Feminists. We did our jobs, y’all and your white husbands/boyfriends/fathers and so on so obviously didn’t do yours.

The only thing white women have going against them in today’s society is that they are women. And white women are required to create white men so they will always be highly valued by those who hold the power.

“This is not about how much America hates women or how sexist America is, because it’s clear that white women helped facilitate Trump’s win”

Take Jill Stein out of the equation, Hillary takes Michigan and Wisconsin but still loses. This is on:

This is an important point. After your comment I read up on it a little bit. I am glad you are speaking up, we need to combat #SIFWW.

I want to cry. I knew today was going to be a lot, but so much of the convo has been dominated by white women talking about what this day means TO THEM. My grandmother was born in 1922 & she didn’t have the right to vote until her eldest daughter was 26.

That’s nice.

I used to live across the street from that cemetery. You know who else is buried there? Frederick Douglass.

UM HI LET’S DO THIS. I’ve met up with one Jezzie so far and I know there are a bunch in the DMV area!
