I just refuse to demonize those people who are actually well-intentioned

As an aside, Your Negro Guide is a hilarious and well written book, if you haven’t read already you should check it out. The author is from Ohio and my aunt let me borrow it before I moved there and it was so timely.

No they are not “projecting their emotions on to HER”, they are making the conscious choice to empathize with the woman who is actually in crisis. Maybe you should take a step back from your save-a-hoe stance and start thinking little more about why exactly you feel sorry for the reporter. Because I can’t imagine any…

What’s in her head or heart doesn’t matter, because actions speak louder than words. Even a blind man could tell that woman was upset by the way her voice was shaking with emotion and the reporter make the decision to continue doing a shitty job as an interviewer instead of considering this woman’s feelings and…

I watched that on facebook today, and I just felt all her hurt and frustration and I was so furious for her at their banality, like she had no right to be upset. I went right over to those assholes fb page and gave them a one star review. I hope that her story will eventually reach a wider audience so people can…

And so many of them are still mad, they call her name every chance they get.

Absolutely most of the best lines and dialogue in the earlier seasons (especially Tyrion’s) are lifted word for word straight from the book. But even with that being the case, the show writers were good enough in their own right that they could match the dialogue with great material of their own. Martin used to write…

Exactly. I am not going around pointing fingers, but I’m not going to sit here and watch people try to gain a mile with an inch of data while ignoring the bigger picture either.

The garbage writing in this episode also stood out to me. It’s like whit, nuance, and intrigue has been cast aside for lines that barely stay on the this side of the 4th wall. I straight up was waiting for the actors to turn to the camera and wink for every info dump/reveal.

I don’t know where they are getting those numbers though because the polls they site is here:

Your close, privileged educated white people voted for BOTH Trump AND Clinton. However Clinton voters were more likely to be educated than not ( I think it was about 75% with degree, and 25% with no college degree).

-The overall margin for college educated whites was 12 %age points in favor of Trump.

The takeaway is, yes Clinton voters tended to be mostly white privileged voters, however this does not negate the reality that the overall majority of white, rich (>50K annually), and educated voters went with Trump. Are you less confused now, here are some links for further clarification.

But that is exactly what you said, I literally copied and pasted from your post like so:

I couldn’t edit my post to add this graph, I would say that it was more of a very simple majority at a 6% difference. Instead of hanging your hat on that 51% like its more meaningful, why don’t you start addressing the 45%.

Educated white women were strongly for Clinton, while white women with less education were strongly pro Trump, however that doesn’t negate the fact that.:

When VH1 just started increasing their original content and had all those “I Love The....” countdown shows I remember this song being in the 90's one and it was the first time I learned what the song was about.

Got about 60% in and moved on to another book. I felt bad for the hero having to be in the midst of this family. The heroine I cant even remember much about her. Also I kept thinking of Downton Abbey.
