Oh look, another person who buys into the “good guy with a gun” fallacy.

Bullying is punching down. This is a wealthy white woman working as a mouthpiece for an organization that dishes out political donations in the tens of millions. This isn’t punching down. This is bringing someone who deserves it down a peg.

Maggie is an infant with no concept of politics

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Who enforces this? And how?

He’s really spot-on with Maggie, considering she’s a 30-year-old gun-wielding baby.

I’m in an odd position here, because basketball is my least favorite major sport, but basketball players and coaches are my most favorite athletes.

You wouldn’t be able to enforce what they do with the game once it gets home but you can’t do that with alcohol either.

Black Twitter immediately join their powers to form Negro Voltron and put up a border wall around Wakanda.

Most retailers already restrict sales of M rated games to minors. It’s their parents that are buying them, and there’s no fair way to legislate that away.

No, you’re not, because unless you’re literally blind, it’s simply not true that you can’t tell the difference.

I’d imagine it’s probably real easy to win arguments when you misrepresent them intentionally and then dismantle your own misrepresentations. Someone should make up a term for that.

the context meaning how likely you feel it is to be punched in the face for opening your white mouth on a subject you have no business talking about to black people?

I’ve never been in that situation. Frankly, I don’t think I’ve ever heard a black person refer to another black person as the n-word (hard R), so I can’t say for sure how I would react in that situation. I suppose the context would determine my reaction.

read the actual article. it very much is about normalising gayness, and some gay people are trying to do that by reclaiming words like “fag”.

I’ve never seen anyone on The Root do that, so no.

all i’m saying is, as straight people we have no right to try to police how gay people refer to themselves.

Unless you are in fact gay, please remove yourself from this conversation.

Does that include Adam Rippon? Because he doesn’t appear to have had any say in what he was called in this article.

If video games were the cause of violence then Japan and South Korea would be war zones.

Maybe to watch. But to play?
