You people are hypocrites. By which i don’t mean black people in general, just the simple minded fools that gather around here to denounce any and all opinions that don’t support their own wise and informed insight based on internet “research”

Ya know who deserved reparations? Actual slaves. Ya know the ones that

It’s not a matter of viewing them as a “possession” but a matter of understanding, commitment and respect that works for both of you.

A relationship boils down to being considerate of someone elses feelings exactly as much as you do your own. If you found someone that doesn’t care if you slut your way up and down the

I gave it a gander, interesting stuff, and i fully agree with the take away. I’ve spent the past 10 years living in Romania and traveling around Europe, i know how public transit should work and how people should ideally be getting around. I’m not trying to belittle your support of HSR or better transit systems, i’ve

While i fully agree that the US SHOULD invest money in highspeed public transit, realistically expecting this to happen, let alone to the degree that it would have ANY meaningful impact on the prevalence of cars is all but the equivalent of standing naked on a street corner screaming “I WANNA RIDE DUH SHORT BUS!”

We don’t need inclusivity for this particular demographic, and it has nothing to do with beauty standards.

74% of the US qualifies as being overweight
42% qualifies as clinically obese.
Clinically Obese means you are 100 pounds (or more) overweight
This includes 22% of children under the age of 18
14% under the age of 12

Mike and Molly...ffs, that was the entire basis of the show

Well....the age of consent in the UK is 16.....so trying to classify banging a 17 year old as being a “pedo” is a looooong overreach, and given that consent laws around the world vary from as young as 12, morally icky though it may be, doesn’t make it illegal per se.

As for MM, i find it more disgusting that everyone

It’s not half of the country.
It’s two thirds of the country, minimum.
Even though 2020 was a record voter turnout (of votes cast, not the percentage eligible voter turnout) that still only saw 66% of eligible voters bothering to do so. So 1/3rd don’t care at all, which is the same as supporting the bumbling efforts of

Millennial mentality to a T.
It doesn’t matter if someone thinks they did something wrong, it doesn’t even matter if they KNOW they didn’t do anything wrong and in fact that accusers are in the wrong. The only thing that matters is “I’m upset, so i’m entitled to have my feelings validated, regardless of whether or not

Everyone, particularly in pieces written on these blogs keep calling this, that and the other thing racist, or homophobic, or transphobic, or bigoted when what the situation actually boils down to is “because i’ve identified as _____ and i dislike how this situation turned out, i’m a victim of some ism or phobic

But.....the color of his skin just doesn’t matter.
He is there to say his lines
The director, is there to tell him HOW to say those lines
The writer is there to decide what the lines he’s going to say are.

While some writers and directors may be more collaborative, that is their prerogative. Actors are there to bring

Yeah, i mean it’s amazing. When black people get stopped by police they:
Argue and agitate
Fail to follow lawful orders
Resist arrest
Flee
And wouldn’t ya know it? After making a small situation, stupidly, idiotically worse, some of them end up getting killed over the simple, universal truth that everyone, every single

You get that Spain isn’t part of “ ‘Merica! FUCK YEAH! WHOOO!” right?

See, different countries have different currencies, AND they also place a different value on goods and services which depend on local taxes, availability and desirability.

See, america is the land of gluttonous lard asses, that seem to think

Everyone needs to accept the fact that, as viewers, what they want to see out of the story, let alone how they FEEL about the story, doesn’t matter.

If you have strong feelings about how a story should play out, write your own.

GoT continues to be reviled simply because so much of the fandom is upset that they bought

Why would you think that Frank wasted his time?
Because he didn’t do what you would have done?
By the same metric we could say that clergy members have wasted their time, or internet bloggers who pick apart other peoples work....simply because it doesn’t shake out how they think it should with all their cumulative

Everyone is ignoring the other side of this coin.
Yes, prosecutors have a habit of thinking that getting a conviction amounts to the same thing as justice.....so long as they believe they have a strong enough case to convict.

Just the same that defense attorneys treat justice as creating “reasonable doubt”

Neither side

Firstly, much like movies and tv shows, video games do not lead to real life violence, just like porn didn’t lead to hypersexualized bands of rapists’ roaming the streets. They in fact accomplish the polar opposite.

Secondly, all three of those entertainment branches have been glorifying the US war machine for over a

Markle is barely black, and a multi-millionaire who entered into the royal family thinking somehow that she was going to change the 900 year old institution of a foreign country to meet the standards all the years of wisdom that being a second string actress in a b-list basic cable show had brought her.

When she

This is just a wonderful rationalization.

“Well i’m against rape, sexual assault and harassment .....buuuuut this is like my DREAM.....soooo.....yeah”

If you see a crime, or are a victim of a crime and you fail to report that crime, you are complicit in creating the circumstances for every, single, victim that comes

Yeah....

It’s a group of women near or long past 40 years old, behaving like a group of mean girls in high school, to mock and torture a 20 year old regarding manufactured rumors about her sexuality.

Do you get it?

It’s a group of middle aged+ women, who’ve made a career out out of behaving like vapid, shallow, children
