If you’re all going to drink the kool aide, stick to grape. This SJW bullshit is working in the wrong direction. 

Um....no, black people are incapable of admitting any failing or taking any responsibility for any outcome that doesn’t paint them as the superhero’s they’ve built themselves up to be.

Your feelings, do not fucking matter. Not to the cops, not to anyone that doesn’t occupy the confines of your own addled brain. That

If you respond to a call to take part in a story or photo shoot that focuses on being trans, or really any topic.....you have to assume that you will be named, your photo used and that people you know are going to read/see the content. Just like you have to assume that something you post on facebook, or insta or any

What you are describing is equality of outcomes.

No one, regardless of any meaningless descriptor we attach to ourselves to designate groups of victim hood or oppressor experience equality of outcome in any western culture.

Places like the soviet union and China instituted measures to ensure equality of outcome. Does

So...when someone is on PCP, literally running naked in the street, and spitting on cops during a global pandemic, what is your advice? How should they have handled that? How should they have handled the insane, naked man who was potentially spreading a deadly disease as he resisted arrest?

This idea that the outcome

There is nothing about you that isn’t a bitter, resentful and ignorant racist, drunk on ideology, because the alternative is admitting that no matter how much history has mistreated black people, it doesn’t absolve any of you of all the shit you do, and do not do to make or keep your lives just as they are.

Not all

I am 100% in favor of abortion. But 17.4 deaths out of 100,000 is the very definition of rare 0.0174%. Up until 1930 the MMR (maternal mortality rate) was about 45 out of 1000, or to more easily compare to your numbers, 4500 out of every 100,000. By 1950, that number had dropped to 800 out 100,000 and by 1970 it had

Tom, you are a....i’ll call you a journalist, but blogger is more accurate. Your entire job is supposed to be convey information, devoid of bias. That doesn’t really happen on any of these blogs, but it’s become painfully rare in all forms of news media. You consume information, pass it through the lens of your own

In what context are YOU a man Mike? While there is an argument to be made that Black america has in itself become racist, it’s more sinister than that, and you’ve dedicated your life to propping up the importance of tribalism and expanding the actions of a stark minority of individuals into generalized truths that

Let me preface this by saying that i firmly believe (and always have) that abortion should just be one of the guaranteed options available to all women, no questions asked. Forcing someone to have a child that doesn’t want to have a child, can’t afford to have a child or just isn’t ready at that particular time to

One more time....

When living in a democracy in which the average voter turnout in midterm elections is 35% (with a record turnout of 49.6%) and presidential elections have averaged 54-60% turnout for the past 30 odd years, it’s not just a matter of having shitty politicians in office, it’s a matter of having a shitty

I think the first thing to do is honestly evaluate whether or not they fall into the “boombalatty” category. There is a big difference between someone who is normally a healthy weight (which does not mean the average weight, because america is a nation of fatasses) and has gained 10 or 15 pounds due to inactivity in

Given the current political landscape in which accusation=verifiable guilt where everyone that is not white, straight, christian or male is coming out of the woodwork to declare anything they don’t like as being racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, misogynistic or whatever other term of exclusion based around

Yeah, why would anyone want to actually understand how these people came to express those particular opinions? Much better to just let people gravitate towards whatever supports their preconceived notions so they can pretend they’re smart. That kind of thinking certainly hasn’t gotten us into trouble before.

How exactly is she less than moral for not stirring the pot? Everyone knew exactly who trump was when they actively, passively (or stupidly) elected him. He’s had been in the public eye for 40 years before he was elected, bankruptcies, multiple divorces, fraud, sexual assault AND rape accusations against minors no

I don’t get how so many people don’t understand this situation. These drivers have no set hours, the only requirements to be able to drive for lyft (or uber) is that you have access to a car, and own a smart phone, this is not a high bar. You work when you want to work, you take the fares you want to take....that is

First off, 22 is....:::checks notes::: a fucking adult. One that graduated college and was working in the white house. This idea that every dumb thing that women choose to do is somehow the sole responsibility of the men around them, just seems a bit at odds with the whole #girlpower#feminism take down the patriarchy

I’ve said it before, and i’m sure i’ll say it again, people are garbage. No one is perfect, and getting any two people to agree on anything with any level of consistency is usually a pointless endeavor, let alone harboring the expectation that everyone is going to think, feel, say and do things that you approve of

I don’t care what something started out as, and the fact that most people grew up in blissful ignorance of this fact kinda shows that it really doesn’t matter what it started out as, because most people just associate it with the sound of ice cream and childhood devoid of any lyrics.

Dredging this kinda stuff up in an

It’s not that humanity even stumbles so much as most people just blindly run full speed at impending doom simply because they believe it’s always going to work out in the end.

That has been the foundation of environmental policy for the past 40 or 50 years, we just have to wait for some mysterious tech, which hasn’t
