i prefer Lisa Ann playing Sarah Palin. the accent's much more believable.

don't what?

excellent contribution.

still there. i've made my feelings clear, corrected and humbled myself at my mistakes. my feelings are gray on this particular person, and her actions, not her treatment. my feelings are much more black and white on harassment, abuse, misogyny, and inequality. i hate them, clear enough? perhaps i will soften, but a…

Either? I tire of this discussion. I afford her no moral high ground, I'm fine with being the villain in this disqus message board. At the end of the day, she didn't deserve it as a woman or as the parrot she acted as. But Fox News as an agent of regressive racist sexist propaganda has done so much damage to this…

Her.

Fine, perhaps I let my distaste for her affect my statements.

that's all well, and good. but was she supposed to stay and be subject to the vicissitudes until she did amass enough evidence? no woman should have to move an inch in reaction to abuse. fox should move. they were wrong. but maybe the question would be: is one's safety self respect and integrity more important than…

it does not, other than the duration of the abuse. yet again, i say no woman deserves to be harassed, objectified, attacked or abused. regardless of appearance, i will add. i am saying, quit after the first time. fox news is clearly a toxic, sexist, chauvinist work environment. i totally see that my "don't do this,…

fair enough. my contention is that she should have quit and sued after the first time. any concerns of breach of contract suits would be negated by the fact that she demonstrably was harassed by a supervisor. cnn or msnbc would have hired her after quitting. to my mind, delayed umbrage implies a less noble agenda.

uh, no. i wasn't implying, inferring, or overtly stating that. why is it wrong to think that abuse should be walked away from immediately? no a woman shouldn't have to destroy her life and livelihood to escape abuse. the abuser should pay, which he presumably will. i merely contend that there was a more mercenary…

of course not. no woman, no matter how vile, should be subject to treatment such as that, or any harassment. i think i said that twice, and not just to cover my ass. why didn't she quit and kick that pig in the nuts?

still worked at fox news. sexism and harassment are bullshit, and no woman deserves it ever. but i don't feel bad for her. other than the money paid to her that she undoubtedly lusts after, she was made famous (another lust of hers, surely) by parroting propaganda and ignorance.

hell no, i still love kimmy schmidt, and i started watching that after i found out she was uber-rich. you just can not buy talent, and she's got it. and to be fair, many of the poors who get rich in showbiz turn into new money assholes anyway.

i hate me some rich people, BUT it's almost more of an accomplishment that these people are funny like us poors. they have no reason to achieve, even if they have the means to do so. it's like being pretty, and developing a personality of your own.

her memoirs from age 0-18 will presumably read: filthy rich family, nothing to see here. 18-22: pretended to be poor while at college with poors at NYU. 22-financial independence: paid dues while financially buffeted by filthy rich family.

page 1 through 320 of my memoir: i watched that thing i liked. page 321: oh, pizza!

i think alton and philando dying are going to be what finally gets this problem solved. but do not count on leader, politicians, and legislators. they just throw body cams and grand juries at the problem. we, the people, tell THEM the solution. not with riots and internalized, impotent anger. this could be the fucking…

fair enough. although, you also need to take into account the usual war profiteers. dow, dupont, bell labs, lockheed, the list goes on. not the least of which being colt, who introduced the m-16, the weapon that only took 30 or so years to improve to the level of "not shitty, probably won't kill you with an overheated…

i was being glib and oversimplifying. but i stand by the basic assertion that they won (in the short term). winning battles didn't add up to a win for us, on a number of levels. that fucking war (and the monsters it supported like nixon) damn near ruined this country psychologically. that's as much the US elites/war…
