I read this article and one thing stood out to me: it never actually mentions if she is trans. Like, being under the queer umbrella is cool and all, but if you aren’t trans, maybe you shouldn’t be commenting on whether DC’s jokes are just something that makes people “uncomfortable”, or something more.

The “substance” of the entire Bernie campaign is that old white man writing checks he damn well knows his ass can’t cash.

The issue isn’t that older black people don’t think it will be beneficial. The issue is that they don’t think Bernie can win.

Black people aren’t with Bernie because we have heard the call for economic liberation before and we know it has never included us. Warren was more convincingly inclusive in her ideals for working class and middle class people.

It sure feels like the Democratic candidates are daring people of color to stay home. I’m not sure I can blame the Democratic Party itself, since I don’t think the Democratic Party selects the candidates to choose from. But there’s something wrong with the process if the top four candidates are pretty terrible on…

Please don’t call Trump a Russian operative. It’s really unfair to all of the Saudi, Chinese and other thugs and dictators that send him cash.

Ditto. Let’s not forget this is a company that organized food drives for its own goddamn employees.

Meh... In the end, $80K still went to the layaway accounts of the less fortunate. Way too many Walmart employees are themselves on public assistance, so it’s hard to see this as a misuse worthy of any kind of punishment or even shaming.

Yeah, this is definitely fucked up but you have a point, its not like any non management person working at a random ass Florida Walmart couldn’t use that help too.

If management took advantage that’s messed up. But aren’t a ridiculous percentage of regular employees also on public assistance because they make poverty wages? They should have been honest with the foundation but that money still went to the less fortunate.

I can’t remember a time when the YouTube comments weren’t tripe. Were you once a part of some magical YouTube community where the comments were all generally supportive and didn’t spam memes or abuse?

You seem fun. 

You are correct. She ain’t crazy - just ignorant. My apologies.

It’s a vicious circle.

I didn’t think that the discussion about sexualisation in video game was about womens self image. I don’t know any woman who likes video games who longs for looking like a pre-teen looking dragon girl who is secretly 1000 years old or having breasts so big that they take up the vast majority of their body.

I thought it…

“Bette Midler, how dare you make a blanket statement that black people can’t think for themselves...”

Thanks for this, Maddy. It’s stories like yours that will—hopefully—reach some of the folks who don’t understand why representation (and accurate/positive representation) matters so much.

The vast majority of protagonists in video games are straight white dudes. I don’t have to worry about whether or not my race, sex,…

If there is one thing to be learned from this, it’s to let go of the myth that we can do anything productive in those situations, other than fire the predator. They don’t need “training” on how to human among humans. They know what they do is hurtful, they just don’t give a shit about the hurt they cause, about the…

OK...she owned her part. This is good.

I wonder what new approaches they have in mind because as things are now, these politicians don’t have much motivation to change. The reason why most black people, and most members of every single demographic group except white people overwhelmingly vote Democratic is because most Republicans push policies that are…
