An acquaintance from college has a degree in elementary education and worked as a teacher for about a year until she and her husband started having a kids and is now a stay at home mom--with the costs of childcare and a teacher’s salary, she can’t afford to NOT be a stay at home mom. And this is in a more rural area,…

I’m so ridiculously thankful to have attended college before social media existed.

Dr. Strange is a Marvel good guy. Hiddleston is the baddie.

You think it was because he was black? Really? Not because he was a character which you would really, really be upset about seeing hurt? Because that is what I saw. He was strong, resolute, and while conflicted, he did his duty and very importantly, he is just a human - when he gets hurt, we all feel it. Who else…

so thats what a seventh degree burn looks like...

if you are not poor you are moming wrong.

Or: Disney gives into people seeing a problem where it does not exist and stops selling a perfectly fine costume that any child of any race should be able to wear.

Yes. I was saying elsewhere that these hysterical zero-tolerance type stances, like alliterator is having, are so counter productive that they run the risk of actually being more divisive, as it comes across as an unhealthy perpetuation of racial bias and not the “never forget” mission they think it is. There IS a…

“Troll” doesn’t mean “Someone who disagrees with you”

Rose? Do you mean Amy? Or you stopped watching because of Rose years after she left the show?

It’s a costume. Not blackface. If the skin was white with all the tattoos etc., would you be offended because they are whitewashing a brown character?

Need more of this message right here. Black face was used as a way to ostracize and make fun of people of color. The intent of this costume is not to do that, it is for little kids to have fun making-believe as their favorite character from a movie that WENT OUT OF ITS WAY to “get it right”. (Oh, and also to make…

You are a champion of PC. How do you walk around all day with your butt hurting so badly about all these horrible things that the big meanies in the world are allowing to happen. It's a fucking costume. Get over it.

Very true. I live in between cologne and Düsseldorf and the first time I had first contact with a black person was when I was about five. And that was an Italy on a street market.

“You could, instead, have people be more culturally sensitive”

“I’m not white, i’m Jewish”
LOL ok
You deserve a star for that

Parent’s are NOT stupid for letting their white kid wear this costume. Why do you pseudo liberals have to give actual liberals that care about REAL issue such a bad name. People look at us and just call us SJW’s now because idiot’s like you get offended over literally nothing. News flash we don’t live in a racist…

I have a bit of trouble with outrage myself. It seems like there are a lot of kids out there where they would be pretty close for the color. Heck there are some white kids that are rather brown after a long summer. But even if they weren’t it’s a kid’s costume. Are we going to make costume police for kids?
