He’s literally our Donald Trump. God forbid he should ever be in charge over here. I wouldn’t trust him to to negotiate with a plastic bag, nevermind anywhere else.

Do you know how traumatic it was for this guy to taker orders, even theoretically, from a Black President? He’s still not over it, and probably will be on disability for the rest of his life.
If I recall correctly, Track was stationed out of Fort Wainwright, Alaska and never saw combat. He did that for two years and was discharged and did recruiting for the National Guard for 2 years. I’m not saying it was easy, but it sure beats being shot at. Also, if the rumors are true, he has forced into service or he…
Totally different point, but fuck Sarah Palin for trying to use PTSD to excuse this behavior. My best friend is a veteran with PTSD, and he has somehow managed to navigate his adult life without harming his romantic partners or anyone else. Most men who have PTSD don’t. There are a ton of women with PTSD too, many of…
Yes. Thank you for articulating this. Sexual harassers are facing the same consequences as rapists right now, which is being fired. Damon thinks his sexual harasser buddies being fired is too harsh. What he doesn’t realize is that it is fair and what’s not fair is that these rapists aren’t in prison. It’s not that…
I can honestly buy that there isn’t any. He’s the epitome of a liberal guy who pays himself of the back for never raping anyone or burning a cross in anyone’s front yard, and ends his self-examination about his behavior toward his others there.
Rose McGowan was in the wrong there.
Milano’s response articulated exactly how I’ve been feeling since this all came out. People tried to report their abusers/harrasers/rapists to the police/Human Resources/executives etc and do everything the right way and NOTHING HAPPENED. Instead the survivors were maligned, blacklisted and ultimately silenced.
No one is conflating them, dude. It must be hard for such a brave Boston boy to understand, but most people understand nuance and degree. The fact that there are differing degrees of wrong doesn’t stop it from being so. He has a point about Outrage Culture, but this isn’t an example of what he is reaching for.
Damon is just trying to distance his sexual harasser buddies, Affleck squared, from his rapist buddy Weinstein. (Or Damon’s trying to distance his own behavior that hasn’t come out yet from Weinstein.) Anyway, teh menz is scared. And they should be. The sexual harassers don’t want to get lumped in with the rapists and…
Love both of these responses but especially Alissa Milano’s.
I take it you’ve never watched his show.
it goes without saying that Chris was both obsessed with Hillary since Bill was President and always ran with whatever bilge was being thrown at her in as loud of a manner as possible. He’s yet another semi-influential male reporter/anchor who helped shaped all the narratives around Hillary and is partially…
A majority of the time, I wonder why he even bothers to have a guest on anyway. He does all the talking.
I believe what he is saying is that we need to process and focus on the social problem rather than focus on the emotional impulses of the initial reaction. For instance, plenty of people have gotten angry at the string of men that have been revealed to be predators, but what exactly is being done about it so that…
Gossip I think covers a lot more than who is sleeping (or not sleeping) with whom. Such as gossiping about someone’s “temper” or aggressiveness etc.
She gives the most exquisitly concise argument yet seen about how things should be; what a developed society demands of the human animal...
You have to remember that most “highly religious” people have no idea what the bible says. They’ll quote Leviticus to justify their anti-gay attitudes, and then forget that in the exact same passage it also says that they shouldn’t be wearing the fabric-blend shirt they have on, and shouldn’t have eaten those oysters…
Because American Catholics are called “cafeteria Catholics” for a reason.
