Caring about animals is so ridiculous!

"Some say" is a far cry from "owning" it. Still, thanks for the concession. I think "some say" is about as much as a lot of these girls can expect. I'm sure they can dry their tears with their zillions of dollars though.

you think Ariana Grande's sexy image is indicative of her "owning" her sexuality? Lol. You're cute, Mark.

Yeah, no, none of that has happened anywhere but inside your head.

Scott's Sister is RIGHT!

Oh but there is a word for those who are "pro equal rights for all races"—antiracist.

Well, one of the joys of being part of the dominant group is the ability to steal other people's words and subvert them for your own purposes.

I completely agree with her. Its so upsetting that feminism as a word as started to gain negative connotations. Its simple really.

Now she just needs to sit Joss Whedon down and explain this to him.

Thanks for the warning. I should've known he was a troll. *sigh*

I don't recognize the username, but I do recognize the shtick. Pretty sure this guy's a troll, the same one that pops up occasionally with a different name pulling the incredibly pedantic and overly obtuse literalist who adds nothing of substance and argues semantics and insists he's always right tactic of trolling.

You mean to tell me out of that entire powerful post, THAT'S what you came up with? You realize that you are proving Kara's point, right?

It isn't just about recognizing basic human rights, it's about recognizing privilege. White people (myself included) often don't even realize how every aspect of our lives has been carefully constructed to allow for success (barring situations such as poverty, abuse, etc). I think it comes down to a lack of empathy…

You didn't say that at all. If that's what you meant then you're very bad at articulating.

I would say in this particular instance, yes, fuck you and your opinion. The article is about the AA community and the way they're treated by the police and their fellow citizens. You came in and said, "but what about white people?" You're an asshole.

I don't see you coming up with any solutions or suggestions. All I see you doing is complaining and nitpicking away at Kara's post.

I teach about the complex problem of differentiating between institutional racism and individual bigotry, so I understand what you're trying to get at.

"if you don't get the whites on board"? That is such a blatantly ignorant and racist statement it hurts to read. Do you beleieve that all whites in this country are against basic human rights? There are no white Democrat liberals protesting for peace and equality in America? Dude, just shut up and leave the…

Yeah, i'll take that response as confirmation you're a fucking moron.

Police can harass blacks in America because they make up a large portion of the impoverished, they can't afford to sue anyone, idiot.
