Let me get this straight: you don’t care if people who generally dislike immigrants in general, but Mexicans in particular, take Mexican cultural imagery when it suits them, but you care that those same people think Taco Bell is Mexican food (many of the states bordering Mexico know authentic Mexican food, many of the…

I would agree we enjoy sharing it...among other Mexicans. In a world where nobody was a racist shitbag, I actually wouldn’t care if people wanted to dress up as “Mexicans” or Mexican cultural figures or whatever the hell they wanted, because the assumption would be people have a general interest or appreciation of the…

You are scolding someone about being born and raised in Mexico, you say you know the rules and understand traditions and then you write Día de los Muertos, you do not write like that, it is Día de Muertos, what you wrote is a back translation, if you are claiming to know a lot, the least you could do is to write it…

Latin American what? If you are not Mexican then you do not have any idea what you are talking about, writing Mexicana type costume is very offensive to me.

Maybe they were referring to her acting abilities.

Do you not see how your language choices are, uh, lousy? When we cast those who get sober as “strong” and those who cannot do so as “weak” we further stigmatize them. That’s part of the BS that keeps addicts degraded. A person can “fight” with all they have and still not be able to get there, especially (as in…

I know people are piling on, but I sort of agree with you. I was an adult when this photo appeared, and am fairly up on world events, but my takeaway was more “What a gorgeous young girl” and less “She’s a symbol of refugees”. It probably wasn’t until I saw the follow up article years later that I understood how…

I don’t think “fetishization” is only about sex. Gula is a poster child. The whole poster child thing can be quite exploitive, and often misses the point. Here’s an attractive child to look at, feel all the feels, that’s all folks!

“... her image came to stand as a symbol of the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan.”

These responses on Jezebel made me realize that I’d HATE to be Beyoncé. You have to live up to this deity like perfection. You aren’t allowed to have missteps and you aren’t allowed to occasionally publicly like something dumb. It’s like being a prisoner of your own success. When people are writing papers about your…

I’m just excited to see Goldie Hawn in a movie! With Joan Cusack! I’m there already! Speaking of Joan Cusack, has anyone seen a little movie she did with Jessica Lange called ‘Men Don’t Leave’? It’s soooo good, and a great cry.

Fantastic. Now let’s get you hooked up to an E-meter.

She was wearing her costume for the movie she is filming while dancing and mouthing the words to a popular song this is no different than what everyone does musically and dubsmash...this outrage is such a stretch

This Victoria’s Secret Angels outtake photo is one way to respond, but I don’t know if it’s quite right.

As an immigration advocate, I can tell you that pressure works. Administration don’t want to look bad, they want to avoid negative press, and they want fundraising dollars. Votes are not the only incentive.

This is extraordinarily frustrating. I’ve been to this facility. I’ve talked to the women and children locked up there and seen their suffering and their heartache and the way they are being treated is a stain on our national character. And for the Obama administration to do this just days after their own advisory…

I’m in awe at how long this human turd has lasted! Here’s a painting of him I did all the way back in 1990.

How is an actual puppet running for Senate?

Be fair. Gotta give him some credit. Duke University is WAY more prestigious than Trump U.
