All this discussion about refs... Here’s a decent set of highlights.

And I am not at all surprised to see that you continue down the gaslit pathway as your primary method of engagement with others.

You know exactly what you’re doing, and your invocations of “hostility” and “simply offering a different point of view” ring with the echoes of those who’ve used the same tactics before you.…

Gaslighting masquerading as “but I just offered a different point of view.”

You’re about as intellectually sound and rhetorically straightforward as the average Breitbart host. Maybe hit them up for a job.

This sort of “logic” only ever comes from a person who’s never experienced oppression, who’s never known anyone who (trusts them enough to tell them about having) suffered oppression, and who has about zero empathy.

“Words only have the power we give them” is the privilege and convenience of dominant cultural groups.

I’m…

If you love and respect people who voted for Trump, you’re part of the problem. Yeah, I said it. You provide comfort and cover to bigots and hatemongers. Your family and friends sound like terrible people, but based on the fact that you love them anyway, you sound like a good terrible fit for such a deplorable…

I think what’s rubbing people the wrong way is that she’s not the Archie Bunker here, whose ignorance is played for humor but ultimately we all know she’s in the wrong. According to a dear friend and critic:

It’s hard to tell on the internet, but you know that was a different guy with the same last name, right?

Fifty three on a roster, 32 teams...this is providing a way out for what percentage of disenfranchised black youths?

I’m just going to ignore your assertion that poor young black men are predestined for “crime and sexual assault,” because that’s not worthy of an argument. But I WILL address your basic claim about poverty/living in the “ghetto.”

This is the most racist patronizing bullshit sociology I’ve seen this side of Man in the High Castle.

You are a fucking clown. There’s about 1000 black players in the NFL. Even if you assume that 100% of them would otherwise be engaged in a “life of crime and sexual assault” (REALLY bro?), then football provides a “path out” for something like one in 1000 black males. That means it’s far less impactful than, for…

Is that the same justification you’d have used to defend going to watch gladiators in ancient Rome? “They’re slaves who have a viable opportunity to earn their freedom, so we should all go watch people literally chop each other to pieces.”

Are you actually claiming that having young POC pitted against one another in a brain-crushing brutal blood sport is the best way to empower them and provide positive opportunities for their futures?

Oh, you’re an idiot. My mistake. What I meant to say is “Roll wide” or whatever.

You’re an idiot. Do you realize what the likelihood of making it to the NFL is? It approaches 0%. Far less than 1% of top tier high school and college players ever have a shot. It’s not any more a viable way “out of the ghetto” than is a music career or becoming a movie star.

crazy to think that someday we will all crawl into that huge pink mouth and huddle behind the shattered and tilted peaks of his teeth along the rolling wet hills of his McDonald’s-impacted gum line as he leaps, naked, out into space on a trajectory set for Earth 2, a quivering savior hurtling spread eagle through the…

FUCKING FINALLY.

Go fuck yourselves dc. If the story about this hadn’t reached a mass audience like Buzzfeed you would of kept this asshole employed which you did when last year multiple sites had a piece about him. I like the bit about launching a “formal investigation” like they didn’t already know about all this and it’s coming as…

Brave of DC to take a stand against sexual harassment five years after the accusations came to light and numerous women were pushed out of the comic book industry
