What do you think would happen if they pulled David Bowie? Dude slept with children. And was sued for sexual assault. What about Prince? Buddy was hooking up with a 17 year old girl. If these guys were any more pro-Roy Moore, they’d be running for Alabama senate!

Sounds like someone was making a false report to police.

It doesn’t ‘fly in its face’ at all, you’re just not thinking about it.
A population can contain more polarized/extreme positions on an issue, rather than an evenly distributed chunk. That should be obvious and you should think about why it doesn’t occur to you.

Well said. If you’re going to try to make sure someone who has grossly inappropriate sex gets to continue being deified, you’re supposed to get Jia Tolentino to write an article that just refuses to address the question of whether the guy should be criticized because something something who cares. Like Jezebel did…

That basically sums up Jezebel’s defense of David Bowie.

Great, religious prejudice too. Try replacing “Christian” with “Muslim” in your sentence and you’ll see what a fucking asshole you are.

Oooh, I see we’re getting into vaguely transphobic comments. Hey Meghan - this is the kind of commentary you think is valid? This is what jezebel wants to promote?

Super duper body shaming going on. A1. Would read again.

Great homophobia right here.

Excellent body shaming there, bud.

I don’t care. I’m a progressive - I don’t give one shit whether someone wants to be spanked with their own picture or cheat on their partner. That’s not my business - Cardi B is right. It used to be that this was the progressive position: someone else’s fetishes or interests in bed were none of our business, not…

This is some A-1 cultural appropriation right here.

This is excellent appropriation. 10/10 Appropriation of Someone Else’s Culture points.

You know it’s harder to replace a professional football player than a cheerleader, right? They get the worse deal because theirs is the less competitive job, not because women are treated unfairly (though...that obviously is also still true, it’s just not the key factor here).

NFL players literally destroy themselves…

So? Remember when Jon Stewart joked about a transgender supreme court judge? “All rise for the honorable Justice Chick-with-Dick”. He’s still a progressive hero. David Bowie screwed the 14 year olds that were too young for Roy Moore.

Who cares?

Look at her, just grabbing his butt without even asking first, he just let her do it.

Cute as this is, it’s ignorant to suggest the island couldn’t be of import. The arctic is increasingly relevant for shipping, resource and climate change reasons. Just because something wasn’t important yesterday doesn’t mean it won’t be tomorrow.

Just to be clear, we’re all okay with body shaming someone as long as they’re a Republican, right? That’s what ethics is? “Thou shalt not body shame, unless to a person who has different politics.”

I should cut out my own sarcasm. I think we should all recognize that sarcasm, self-righteousness and condescension make…

I don’t know what the criminal provision is called in her state, but intentionally making false witness to the police is generally a crime.
