Getting white people to discuss the racism they cause by defending their racism? Sounds about white. Also its funny how fragile white people are that being called racist invokes feelings so we have to baby them. Meanwhile, being on the receiving end of racism does more than invoke feelings, it can kill you. Maybe by…

An uncanny amount of white people, regardless of their profession, are expected to explain racism despite likely never experiencing itself and thus, lack perspective and understanding. I sometimes feel this is systemic based on population numbers alone.

At this point, I could be outside on a nice day with a Republican and they could tell me it wasn’t raining, and I would go inside and check the weather to see if they were right. They could tell me my mother is dead (I know she is. I was there) and I would go in and check the death certificate to make sure. They could…

Some random Twitterer I don’t remember summed it up better than I can, that crypto is the closest thing yet devised in real life to Looten Plunder’s pollution machine that doesn’t make or do anything, just plug it in and it pollutes. 

I knew this would be a fruitful mailbag after this past week. And I was not disappointed. Lunatic, self centered rantings? Check. Racist, N-word laced drivel? Check.

Exactly! Its because “they” (black people) arent people/individuals and so clearly its some sort of instinct and all of them act alike. Its not like oh that one person or even group was just an asshole, its all of them.

So many white people really hang onto the “one time I saw a black person do a bad thing, get a free thing, etc” and then just project it onto everyone. They’re incapable of seeing black people as individuals (bc racism). I have to have this conversation with my mother at least 2x a year. “So why when [white guy at…

“There is no reason for you to try to become like white people and there is no basis whatever for their impertinent assumption that they must accept you. The terrible thing, old buddy, is that you must accept them. And I mean that very seriously. You must accept them and accept them with love. For these innocent…

Exactly. The world is out of time to entertain this bullshit.

The only good reason to invite a climate science denier to speak at anything related to climate science is to let them speak on stage while someone silently lowers a series of banners mocking them. Such as:

Equal time is bullshit. The Klan shouldn’t be allowed equal time in a equality discussion. They would never allow a holocaust denier to speak at a Holocaust remembrance. The cigarette lobby kept getting equal time for their fake scientists long after it was deadly clear cigarettes caused cancer. They only admitted it…

Agreed. I just immediately wondered why it wasn’t in the piece. That’s why--because she hasn’t said anything. It’s not then an example of bad journalism.

She says she doesn’t want to face him, so I can see why she wouldn’t want to name him.  I wouldn’t want to say my abuser’s name in public and give them even a millisecond of attention.  I hope instead they are nameless, dead in an unmarked ditch somewhere.

Is that PSA video above real?  I mean, that REALLY happened????  They actually believed in what they were saying on there?

Shockingly and depressingly related, check out on YouTube 1940's/50's PSA’s on how women should look and behave. Keep that in mind when the troglodytes grunt about “the good old days”

If all the murderer votes had been properly counted, Trump would have surely won.

“soft and weak, cosseted and naive despite their claims of worldliness, and generally full of shit.”

Don’t think there’s anything very unreasonable about that. He’s airing someone out in an attempt to (fairly or otherwise) malign them in the public eye. It’s only natural for the public to want to get the details of what went down and not just accept vague insinuation as a referendum on someone else’s character.…

I think wanting specifics is perfectly sensible. There would be a fact of the matter about them, and others could either confirm or deny them. At the same time, because he was dealing with Warner’s own investigation it’s understandable that not all the details were going to be available for the general public early on.

Legends Of Tomorrow is one of the best shows on television. It also once featured a season-long storyline with a character getting his nipple bitten off by a unicorn, then later having his nipple restored but possessed by a demon from the time it spent in hell, and then using the possessed nipple to hypnotize people…
