six years on one count of violating Georgia’s street gang act

thats because racism has not only been legitimized, its been deemed patriotism.

“I would never ...” = “I didn’t realize there would be consequences for my actions.” Which is why we are seeing an uptick in racist and anti-Semitic acts; people are getting the message that they can get away with it.

She does kind of have “walk of shame hair” in the same way Bannon always looks like he woke up on a park bench with a thin residue of vomit on his lips.

That’s Bar Fight Barbie to you!

Both heels are up her ass. That said, remember how Reagan made a big deal of never being in the oval office without a suit jacket? He thought the room deserved the utmost respect, comfort be damned. The same people who love him for that have nothing to say about this. Because they don’t actually stand for anything.…

She’s so obviously playing the “oh teehee I’m the only woman in a room full of men. I’m so adorable! I can play these dudes.” thing. No honey. They think you’re a child, and you’re confirming it to them.

She’s hatching an egg. Leave her alone. Lizard people don’t replenish themselves.

Not everything needs to have a racial element.

You do realize that the oscars are about acheivment in film not the fix all the injustices in the world awards. If Mel Gibson had done the best job directing (he didn’t) i’d want him to win.

Lol. Everyone knows only black people can write and perform jazz music. To think otherwise would be racist, amiright?!

Yes, I the tenor of this article is terrible but fits with a certain strain of thought that pervades much of the Gawker universe. It is very counterproductive. I could see if the problem for the author was that the music wasn’t good. I don’t know. I didn’t see La La Land (and never intended to either) but it seems…

I’ve had the music from La La Land stuck in my head for weeks. I really like the score.

I was wondering if I was the only one that thought this was a really shit comment to make.

I don’t understand this logic. I loved Bad Brains back in the day. Zero fucks did I give for them being a black punk band.

I would never try to state that “white people” were responsible for Jazz, that would be ludicrous.…

I hear ya Kara....that Stan Getz.....Chet Baker.....Django Reinhardt....Bix Biederbecke and Dave Brubeck were fucking hacks. The world is much better served by listening to Nicki Minaj or Mariah and Salt and Pepa.

You guys are really ratcheting up the racism for the Oscars. Is it just for clicks, or do you really believe the skin color of these men affects their ability to write music?

That shit right there is highly alarming. He’ll probably constantly name-drop ‘neoliberalism’ too, as if the accusation alone makes it so.

Nobody you see bitching about Perez is an actual longterm Dem.

THANK YOU. Ida B Wells taught us, and we walked straight. FOHWTBS about ‘let-downs’ - we were stans for HRC to the very end. Y’all don’t get to be all revisionist on us, we’d nothing to do with the carnage on the 9th.

Are you this stupid and selfish naturally?
