if it means I never have to see another Nolan article on deadspin again I hope Trump clamps down on the free press

Oh look, a Gawker writer from NYC knows everything again.
I mean, people have said less and all of the gawker sub-blogs want heads to roll. It’s no different. Plus, when you need 3 paragraphs to justify a supremely stupid tweet you are, in fact, wrong and should be reprimanded. I’m positive you would call for his/her job if this was flipped
Perhaps. But this was an inflammatory tweet that was intended to piss people off. It’s likely a joke, but a joke like this focusing on any other ethnicity would cause pandemonium on this site. He’s a college professor who has tweeted out something advocating (even in jest) for the murder of people of a certain race.…
I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and say that you wrote this via your phone. I do agree with you that it was shitty, only because Twitter is the exact wrong medium for a nuanced, inflammatory joke that requires a good deal of prior information to understand. And also that it’s a bad pun on a Bing Crosby…
Okay but we wished for the genocide of a race. I don’t care what academic “it’s okay becuz reasons” way u wanna spin it that’s a shitty thing to tweet
Waste of money. They could have bought Golden Globe for 100,000 and a nice Spa certificate.
One person was a racist and sexist, ergo, the vast majority of criticism must have been racist and sexist.
Haha, no.
Ugh, you can’t let Ghostbusters go, can you?
Look, the backlash wasn’t about sexism, the backlash was because swapping out everyone for an all female cast was an obvious marketing ploy. The entire cast could’ve been male, and absolutely nothing of substance would’ve changed. Combine this with the fact that the movie…
AHAHAHAHA. You and your kind are the absolute worst. If you actually believe that a list of men who took responsibility for wrong doing is short, and that the majority of men are evil, then I just feel bad for you.
Sage would’ve made a very fine tribute from District 1.
As a lawyer, I agree that you’re right on the standards of evidence. Shocking that you think that the absence of charges automatically verifies the truth of the accusations. At this point, there are about 15 people that know for sure what happened that night. You’re not one of them. Neither am I. I’m always shocked…
As a fellow lawyer, let me remind you that we typically do not dole out punishments in the absence of proof beyond reasonable doubt. It is perfectly reasonable to protest against the lack of due process in this instance. The players believe these men innocent and no court has proven otherwise, so why would they not…
Boy I sure hope no one ever accuses you of act you aren’t guilty of.
The more outrageous the claims the more likely they are to be false, this is basic occam’s razor level stuff. To have a dozen men choose to be rapists together without a single one having any moral qualms and no one else witnessing it is far harder to happen than having 3 men do it, for example.
The absence of charges after she claimed a dozen guys ran a rape train on her with an audience cheering them on seems to me that the DA and the PD both thinks she’s full of shit.
Aesthetic taste is obviously subjective. With that said, you’re wrong and you should feel bad.
Seeing McDavid act like this is unfortunate. He really should take a page out of another hockey superstar’s playbook, Sidney Crosby, and just cheap shot the guy and then hide behind the ref...
Top notch trolling.
