I... actually didn’t know she wrote her own work and I consider myself a fan of her work. Certainly not a super fan or a defender of Glitter but I like a fair chunk of her catalogue.

I don’t think that’s fair. While much of the country is much more accepting of homosexuality, there are potential concerns outside of how society at large will receive you. There are also your personal relationships with your family and friends. Someone that was gay and not deviant in any way might conceal their…

Wearing shoes doesn’t endanger anyone. Failing to feed a child obviously could endanger someone. These situations are not comparable.

Breastfeeding can be necessary to support another living being. It’s not even close to the same thing. Wearing shoes may cause mild discomfort, not eating can be fatal. This is a Bad Analogy.

Where did I say anything about underwear? You invented that genitalia thing out of whole cloth

How is a shirt any different? There is near consensus on wearing shoes in public. It’s unprofessional and no one wants to look at your nasty feet

Couldn’t this same ideology be applied to shirts or pants?

Exit polling is a thing and if Russians had interfered with voting machines it would be widely known because the machines were under heavy scrutiny well before the election. Their attempts to access machines in a few states were picked up in early 2016.

53% of white women who voted voted for Trump. You can continue to be dubious, but this is a fact.

Remember that 53% of white women voted for Trump - why would every woman walk out when many of them support this garbage?

Longer than any of us will live. Regression is simply much, much faster than progress. Something that took decades to build can be undone swiftly, and rebuilding the political capital to redo that thing isn’t suddenly any easier.

Sanders? Do you have a link?

This will be a HUGE story in 2018. It may slip from the news cycle for a few weeks between now and the end of the year but it will resurface next year in a big, big way.

Why would this surprise anyone? The police first came to be in America as a way to protect the property of white men which at the time could include other people. Obviously that changed, but the police’s role in Jim Crow preserved the core mission of the police which remains protecting the property of white men, which…

This is really pretty scary, as it gives the far right a way to galvanize Trump voters that would’ve been otherwise dejected by the lack of legislation passed - we removed the roadblocks to Trump’s agenda now we just need to lurch further right.

Unsurprisingly, it’s legal for police officers to fuck suspects in most states. It’s sad and gross but it’s reflection of the hero worship we foster upon police officers. It is simply beyond many Americans’ comprehension that these people may be malignant. Especially in cases where they’re policing undesirables like…

I worked for Amazon, all of their employees dress poorly. You mentioned that he works for Amazon as if it indicates he has taste but it just means he has the money to be the designer brand knockoff James Dean of his dreams

Amazon has no dress code and people routinely wear much more ridiculous things than this guy all over their main campus, this guy wouldn’t stand out at all

I wish these Polanski articles would come with a list of all the sycophants in Hollywood RIGHT NOW that defend this man at every turn. You will never get a narcissist to understand that they’re wrong, but you might be able to cut them off from support.

Her mode of dress did not impact your life and liberty in any way; it’s an extremely weak comparison. You don’t have a right to be comfortable. People have a right to be antisocial. The impact of refusing to vaccinate, though, can be argued to potentially impact the inalienable right to life and liberty. You can’t…
