When people run out of options...crime goes up. Im sure we can all be our best selves. But for how long?

It’s not like LA has any meaningful history of armed civilians defending themselves and their property with firearms during a period of civil unrest, after all... oh, right. Koreatown in the Rodney King Riots.

No, you can’t shoot the virus. Ha-ha, what a clever joke. However, if you look into 3-4 weeks in the future, assuming the current trend of exponential growth of infections stay the same, it won’t be just toilet paper shortage. When food runs out, there won’t be enough police around to keep looters at bay.
...but let’s

I’m from South America, born and raised, so I feel like I should be allowed to give my two cents on this:

None of my Latin friends use it or care about it.

Spanish is a gendered language, you cant just change it just because it works in english.

Can you stop using Latinx already. No one fucking uses it, it’s not a thing and will never be a thing. Everyone I know that’s actually from Latin America hates it and will never use it. 

The gender neutral term for Latino is Latino. No actual Latino identifies as Latinx. It’s a made up word by non Latinos. Kinda like how people who are not Native American want to change the name of the Washington Redskins, but actual Native Americans could care less.

I have a feeling that as long as this group doubles down on socialism, reparations, universal everything, open borders and higher taxes...the outlook is not good for these candidates.

I’ll take “guy who knows things” shtick over your “performative outrage” shtick any day of the week, thanks.  

Counterpoint: NDT has taught me many things, and Jack Crosbie has not enriched my life in literally any conceivable way.

Thanks for this article. I’m a pastor (of more of the brick and mortar type of congregation). I totally appreciate the challenges of always being “on” as a pastor, and trying to balance being just “me” or “pastor me.”

Same - I don’t find those comments creepy at all.

I didn’t find the comments creepy, seems more they want to embarrass her.

Isn’t that how Ansari got in trouble in the first place? A lack of psychic powers?

Isn’t this a lot like refusing to decorate cakes for occasions you don’t approve of, or refusing to dispense birth control for religious reasons?

Why didn’t she simply walk out? Why did she blow him? This is clearly a consensual sexual encounter she later regretted. “I didn’t really want to do it, but I did anyway” is not sexual misconduct.

This article makes me feel truly ashamed of what AV Club has become.
