I’ll admit that my little rant, after a number of beers, was not completely directed at the article or the author. I’ve lost a lot of respect for this site in the past couple of months. I find the “woke” olympics to be a bit much, and frankly a bit self-absorbed at times. This site is dedicated to manufacturing nice…

The author is appropriating “fat narratives” and assumes that anyone who may be overweight (according to our normative language games) must by default be unconcerned by “calories”, reinforcing the notion that anyone overweight must necessarily be “out of control”, “unhealthy”, and cannot assume their own physical…

What if a trans person has ulterior motives?

Insulting? Maybe, but in a more or less meaningless way. It’s an “insult” that lacks the societal structure to truly be considered an “insult” in the same way as a racial slur.

Hmm...

She reminds me of “that” person who constantly goes around basically calling everyone “toxic” or a “hater” , without ever coming to the realization that they might be the problem. No, your “experience” is not reality or another equally valid “point of view.”

The “Blacks for Trump” guy (the one behind Trump) is probably mentally ill. Visit his site, the one he had on his shirt, www.gods2.com.

Pedophilia was more acceptable in the past than now, and for some reason people have concocted this selective memory illusion that it is some “modern” evil.

I don’t think so.

I mean, just own it at this point.

The only issue I have with the whole discourse around gender is the ease with which the the pro gender fluidity camp supports the idea that gender is purely a social construct while simultaneously making these quasi-genetic/“essential” arguments that a child’s gender identity is somehow fixed before hand (i.e: that…

That can’t really be done... The EU is not willing to ratchet up sanctions, and the member states are not even close to being on the same page. In the EU, certain large member states are less than favorable towards increased sanctions. Countries like France, Italy, and yes, even little old Greece, are not as receptive…

Yep, sounds pretty much spot on.

No way. I missed the CD binder in car era by a handful of years and even I’m an ‘old’ now (late 20s.)

Maybe the wording is a little problematic, but it is hardly “Islamophobic”...

It’s impossible to caricature him. His face has no distinguishing features or personality. He’s the blandest variety of white imaginable, stark modern art gallery white.

He fits the manipulative sanctimonious asshole profile. Those types attack any form of generally disliked behavior, believing that the ‘offending’ behavior of the other person gives them carte blanche to harass and intimidate others who unfortunately do not live up to their lofty standards.

In the case of the Front National, they more or less respect the 50/50 rule, 247 women and 259 men are present as legislative candidates under the FN banner. 

“SLUGS” and “SEX FRENZY” should be capitalized as per the Daily Mail style book. By capitalizing “500 BILLION” right out the gate prevents, the writer immediately destroys all lyrical potential and shock value.

Not too surprising given Trump’s temperament and the circumstances...
