He needs to make racism illegal and stop blatantly silencing black and brown bodies!!!!

How about just simply saying out loud that the system of law enforcement is broken and racist. Admit the systemic racism. Start there. But that won’t happen because as we have seen, people that benefit from the system that are “progressive” get quite defensive when black and brown people lead the discussion.

That’s the thing that gets me. What is the platform that is being advocated for that Sanders somehow isn’t endorsing? None of these handwringing thinkpieces articulate it. Is there a policy that the candidates should endorse? What’s the plan?

Yep. I understand the article but it doesn’t put forth an alternative. If you are asking what he’s doing to help discrimination, and his plan is helping the poor, which has more minorities, in order to get them educated and in positions of power, and you just say “THAT WON’T FIX EVERYTHING!” You’re right. What’s your…

You’re totally right—instead of planning to alleviate racism with economic tools, Sanders should instead just plan to make every American sign a pledge stating “I won’t be racist.” That would be a much better solution.

Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

You built a city in the desert. And now you’re paying the price for it. And so is the poor Colorado River and numerous other waterways that never intended to fuel your greedy thirst.

Oh my god I’m so glad there’s a space for me to express how stupid this article is. It’s literally the exact same article papers have been writing about rich white kids in Manhattan since the 1920s, updated each year to include the new technology and trend.

I contend that it should be “Anatomy of a URL”.

Smart move logging onto a sports website on the night of a big sporting event you’re trying not to spoil for yourself, fuckface.

I don’t get the “most dominant (female) athlete in history” narrative that people spew about Rousey. She is great! She’s a totally impressive athlete who currently dominates in her specific field! But we’re still talking about somebody with only 11 fights to her name. Putting her on the same level as an athlete like…

Your argument would make sense, if she was the only one dominating in her category. Sports has always been filled with people that dominated. Did you think that when Anderson Silva was dominating everyone that it was because none of the other guys in his division has HIS mindset? What about Emelianenko? or Mayweather?…

actually ronda rousey owns and I hope she wins forever.

And to the rest of the world, they are still just “rich assholes” and “richer assholes.”

What you would call Brooklyn-rich is really just Manhattan-middle class.

People who live in New York City - population 8 MILLION - refer to their borough (Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, the Bronx, Manhattan) as where they “live.” This is because there is often times such a huge difference in life and culture from borough to borough, not to mention neighborhood to neighborhood within one…

You obviously have never lived in New York City.

Try a larger dose.

It’s no lie. And if you researched the topic, you’d know that.

You do realize Native Americans weren’t Na’vi right? They had a sprawling advanced civilization, one of the most powerful in the world at the time. They fell because they constantly warred among themselves fracturing their people into groups and because of disease; the spread of which was encouraged by the settlers,…
