Blah blah blah.
Blah blah blah.
This is so accurate it isn’t even funny. We support ideas that are great at the start but then ruin them by analyzing them to death. Its like we have an obsessive need one up each other.
Yeah this pretty freaking bad but the discourse around social movements has gotten to be such that unless you can talk about it at the level of someone who is going for their Masters in Social Justice people are going to sneer at you for asking ‘stupid’ questions, yell at you for being a sell out/self-hating or call…
Locomotive Jones noticed that the author of this article didn’t bother to mention the death threats that Trump-supporting electors have been getting. How surprising.
No, it’s actually been proven terrorists use trucks - even referenced in this very article - and terrorists even urge people to use trucks on crowds. Stop being so intentionally obtuse.
... You can’t be serious.
You dont watch the news much, huh?
“A terrorist attack carried out by a Tunisian citizen driving a truck killed 84 people on Bastille Day this year.”
Terrorists also use trucks. See the Nice attacks earlier this year.
Liars gonna lie, that’s not a slippery slope. She wanted to get in on the Kardashian brand, got denied and now holds a six month old baby hostage to get more money on her way out. How is this not lying and deceitful? What man could text other women about his fat wife and how he plans to slap the shit outta her and…
Right?!
There is a problem though, when you marry someone simply for the money, the fame and the possibility to be part of the ‘Kardashian brand’ and you brag about it to other dudes you meet on the side.
Yeah, if I was worried about the well being of my so, I’d text other dudes who wanted to ‘come over’, probably to ‘discuss’ some issues with me. That’s the telltale sign of a worried spouse. /s
Man tells gf she is fat and has to get off the couch and in shape again within a year or he will drop her. You’d totally would feel the same about this guy being a good person all around, nothing wrong here, huh?
EXPLAIN to me how to make that character Asian and not offensive. If you can’t do that stop writing about it. It IS AN OFFENSIVE STEREOTYPE. FFS. As I have said, the only way to really avoid it is to not make the movie at all, which I full-heartedly wish had been their choice. I’m done.
In fact the film DID hire at least one Asian actor and according to TS it was because they felt that the Ancient One character was too problematic to be played by an Asian person and instead created a completely new, major character (played by an Asian actor) to avoid this controversy. How exactly were they going to…
I’m guessing you know nothing about Margaret Cho, she has done far more than speak about her own experience. That’s a good thing, but it doesn’t mean she is always right or can never be challenged.
Wow, that’s a really skewed lens you’re looking for. I never said she didn’t have a right to speak up. I did say that if you speak up, you can expect someone to follow up with you. It’s not a one way street. She was contacted by the person she was criticizing who said it was fine to tell her to ‘fuck off’ if she felt…
This is a ridiculous attempt to shut a conversation down, “More important things are happening in the world, so shut up about *this*!” Oh, yeah? Then don’t click on the article and comment.
So, Cho’s just gonna whitewash over all that stuff she said?
