That is to say a lot of women are concerned about women who were once men invading their space for a variety of reasons. One does one group of people (trans) comfort with themselves automatically overwrite the discomfort of another group (biological women).

This was the same era when Fox also decided to throw the Simpsons head-to-head with the Cosby show (and won that too). They were certainly audacious.

The internet was a mistake. I make my living off of it, but it was a mistake. If I had a time machine, the first thing I’d do, even before killing the baby fuhrer, would be preventing the invention of the internet.

Also the total media capture. There is no mainstream media that comes anywhere close to even a mild criticism of how capitalism is practiced in the USA, because the entire news media is owned by massive corporations expressly for the purpose of laundering their reputations and ambitions.

They have got to do something about cops’ “fear”. They are allowed to use any fear, no matter how objectively ridiculous, as a justification for using lethal force, and they are afraid of literally everything.

I’m not convinced by her complaint that, “I came into this world looking like a Barbie, so it’s complicated for people to allow me the opportunity to be anything else.” Stone got a lot of opportunities because of her looks, and not solely in trashy movies.

Literally everyone knows this - it’s been public for decades.

The Clinton impeachment was one thing, yes, but the more important moment was the first two years of the Trump presidency which set the standard under which we all now live: Democrat Al Franken was forced to resign from the Senate over a relatively minor transgression, while Republican Donald Trump received…

picking stupid and annoying fights over the most trivial stuff in the world (e.g. boycotting Harry Potter videogames)

Directors, DPs, and editors should be forced by producers to watch their programs on standard 1080p LED TVs at least once before releasing them. That would solve most of this.

There’s this weird belief that appears incredibly widespread that it’s okay to do anything you want as long as the person you’re doing it to is “stupid”. Like it’s not wrong to lure, trap, and then traffic young girls because the girls are stupid anyway.

I’ve been seeing a lot more alt-right, anti-SJW, and manosphere content on my YouTube recommendations lately too. I’ve been wondering if they’ve changed their algorithm, but maybe just having watched a handful of videos with his name in the title made YouTube think I was one of those chuds? It’s really, really…

Say what you will about his character, he is a very large man and a legitimate fighter. He’ll be pretty safe in prison from that sort of thing.

“She struggled to speak about the trauma she’d experienced with police and felt belittled when an officer asked her friend if she had a learning disability.”

Not agreeing or disagreeing with you, but did you watch Yellowstone?

“I figured io9 would be elated a “genre” show won Best Drama. They relegated it to the bottom of a post about Everything, Everywhere’s wins. Shows what I know!”

They have standards. It’s just that the standards are the opposite of what they should be.

It’s a serious problem. At some point, the federal government is going to have to take over all law enforcement in the country in order to clear out the goons, and that’s not going to go over very well with a certain 1/3 of the country who will be inclined to view that as the start of a civil war.

One of the most disheartening disparities in American politics is that Democrats are annihilated by their voters for any hint of misbehavior and Republicans are rewarded by theirs.

This generation of young conservatives doesn’t think Dr. King preached violence, they think that he preached colorblindness and acting like racism doesn’t exist, which is just as incorrect.
