If anyone is driven away from feminism by a Jezebel headline it's because they were looking for an excuse to oppose it. People who are looking for information that supports their biases will always find it or make some up anyway.

I think the most telling part of this study is that a lot of men, and not a small amount of women, will often engage in life threatening activities that have little or no measurable payoff. For instance, if you decide to climb Everest, well, good for you I guess, but if you die in the process, well, I'm not gonna get…

Illustration of Anna's thought process when writing this title:

Jessica Williams is the best thing that's ever happened to the Daily Show.

Everytime I watch Jessica i'm just like

Bang! Also, let's not forge the DA did a lousy job and the whole proceedings were shady, and some of the evidence wasn't submitted, and some faulty evidence was submitted.

Right right yes because only providing one side of the story is "not leaving out evidence." The prosecutor was acting like a defense attorney instead of doing his job correctly.

Justice Scalia on grand juries:

It is the grand jury's function not 'to enquire … upon what foundation [the charge may be] denied,' or otherwise to try the suspect's defenses, but only to examine 'upon what foundation [the charge] is made' by the prosecutor. Respublica v. Shaffer, 1 Dall. 236 (O. T. Phila. 1788); see…

Actually it's the opposite. At the end of the day, prosecutors need the police to be able to do their jobs effectively. They have a greater incentive to present the case in a way that favors the police or in the very least casts them in a sympathetic light. There have only been a handful of cases where a grand jury…

I saw a Vine of people in London chanting "Hands up! Don't shoot!" and started crying. I don't know why, but I didn't expect this to turn into such a cause around the world.

If the grand jury determined that Wilson shot Brown while Brown had his hands in the air in surrender, they would have brought charges.

Wait, Fox News already called them "Black Panthers" and and is currently checking their backgrounds for any crime whatsoever.

the fact that a MAN had to say something about the worst kept secret in Hollywood for it to mean anything irks the fuck out of me.

Actual news seems to be when a frat throws a Christmas party and it isn't racist.

Look, I dislike Brietbart as much as the next person, but an investigation into an allegation of an extremely serious crime that implicates an apparently innocent person that has the same name, political affiliation and attended the same small liberal arts school at the same time as the person that Dunham named in her…

This is the sort of bullshit white folk reference when discussing topics of race.. The language that they disagree with.

NOBODY ASKED THIS WHITE PERSON, NOR ANY WHITE PERSONS I KNOW, WHICH IS A LOT! I KNOW A LARGE AMOUNT OF WHITE PEOPLE, AND NONE OF THEM WERE POLLED.

Or get really fucking defensive and double down, and unveil the classic "it is YOU who are the real racist, for calling out my racism!"
