This isn't a thought experiment about the abstract principle of equality. We do not live in equal conditions, and some generalizations need to be confronted rather than dismissed.

Gotta love that white-Hispanic label that came out of nowhere in order to sell the media's race baiting story.
You can argue if it was murder or manslaughter all you like. We don't really have enough to completely, unambiguously prove intent, mostly because the only other witness got shot and died. But let's establish a few givens:
The only eye witness described seeing Trayvon on top beating George while George screamed for help. Zimmerman was bleeding from the back of his head where it was be slammed into the ground.
We're all going to get old and wrinkly.
Of course Miley is in control, but that has nothing to do with whether you're being co-opted/used. Or rather, it has everything to do with it. The world is littered with women who believe that the choices they are making (that can be materially detrimental to their emotional well-being) spring only from their own…
Oh, christ, THANK YOU. She was THE person who called out the Catholic Church long before the sexual abuse scandal——and it wrecked her career in the US. She never gets credit for that or for calling them out about the Magdalene Laundries, either. On top of which, her music ranges from brilliant to genius. Miley knows…
Mocking mental illness and being a racist asshole is why Miley is a horrible person
If someone co-opted my art to create something that I considered an abomination of the principles which guided my art, I'd speak up too. Sinead shaved her head to subvert the expectation that she'd sell herself sexually as a female artist only to, twenty years later, watch someone who claims to be inspired by her…
Slut shaming? There's a difference between "Don't act sexual or you're a slut" and "You're being used by a giant corporate machine to make money off of your sexuality". Maybe we could save "slut shaming" for the former and call the latter "good advice".
Fleshy sarcophagus in which a sentient tongue is housed Miley Cyrus is up to her old tricks. By "old tricks," I…
The idea of throwing a whole WEDDING - that probably cost thousands of dollars - before you've even asked your partner to marry them?! I'm glad it worked out for them, but it boggles my mind.
Did you know your Queen fired the ENTIRE Australian government when they pulled this shit in the 70's? It's very not American of me to say this, but I actually would kind of like a queen to step in right now and get rid of our current government.
Women. If they aren't destroying society with their whoredom, they're menstruating all over the Constitution.
As the marriage progressed, his douchebaggary became more and more pronounced. My particular favourite was how he didn't like Jamaica because there were black people there.
It's one thing to make a lunch because you want to. It's totally another thing to make one because your vagina obligates you to, despite whatever else you may have going on at the time. That sandwich would be a grudgewich with extra sauce.
Ok, millions of years of evolution have programmed us to be sensitive to and aware of threats to our safety, and people belonging to marginalized groups especially so because we face potential threats so much more often than everyone else and learn to be hyper-vigilant to things such as tons of people hurling…
She plainly said that she is not a doctor. Be worried that our ridiculous, hypocritically puritanical, anti-woman country makes her existence necessary.
Not every woman...just 90%. You like facts?
He's right. I turned 29 in June, and prior to that, my butt was perky and cellulite free. Then, on my 29th birthday, the Butt Fairy showed up at my house and injected cottage cheese into my butt and thighs, and then kicked me in the face for good measure, because 29 is the age at which women are no longer attractive.
