A difference of degree, not a difference in kind...unless you’re Oscar Grant. Then it’s not even a difference in degree.

pretty she’s dog hardware running cat OS.
While I totally get the people who think renaming them after the Red Tails is a good idea, I just can’t agree. They’ve been profiting from marketing the likeness of POC already. I don’t want them to replace one with another and keep doing the same thing. Plus I don’t see the Washington team doing too much honor to the…
Getting infected doesn’t prove she did anything wrong or that Brian Kemp has ever been right about anything in his life. It just proves that this is a very contagious disease and you can reduce your risk, but not to zero.
This is what some folks refuse to understand. (I don’t want to say they “can’t,” because they can, they just refuse.)
Where are the over-zealous Postal Cops when you need them?! The Real Estate company this guy worked for needs to be fined, minimally, because you know they instructed him to put the cards in mailboxes!
“The U.S. Postal Service would like to warn people that only authorized U.S. Postal Service delivery personnel are allowed to place items in a mailbox. By law, a mailbox is intended only for receipt of postage-paid U.S. Mail.”
I suspect the ACLU will get involved and if they don’t the teacher ought to sue the school district. This will force the school to defend its process and ultimately what was the offending item and the district will determine very quickly they made a mistake that will cost them lots of dollars. Racists and bigots will…
Because they need to let Karen know they have her redneck back. (white power)
I’m so tired of this. I’m so tired of only rich white men getting second chances. I’m so tired of someone spending decades being an absolute prick and then being somehow above criticism for expressing baseline human decency. I’m tired of them getting to make mistake after mistake and only having it increase their…
Nah, I don’t believe that spin for one second!
Jimmy Kimmel: spends years profiting off misogyny
I think it's that crack heads consider themselves socially superior to meth heads. They all catch a ration of shit from daytime drunks.
She says in the video that she gets paid by the government. I took that very clearly to mean that she’s on public assistance.
A pattern of institutional murder.
I do also want to add that Fight Club being listed here as a “drama celebrating unbridled masculinity” and “The Man Show” being considered satire when it was not makes my brain explode. Admittedly, many of the Palahniuk-obsessed dudebros of the era also totally missed that it’s a gay man’s commentary on the…
Yeah, this is exactly the point. If Kimmel was saying “I was an idiot, I was doing a show based on what my Neanderthal friends and I thought was funny and we hurt a lot of people with it” that would be one thing. But it was absolutely NOT satire. It was about wearing the label of misogyny with pride. Good for him if…
To me, the point of this all is that a man who’s held extremely misogynistic views and roles is taking a space that someone who hasn’t been as problematic could. I’m glad he’s grown; but does he need his own show, or could someone else take another late-night spot and make the same points without the history? It’s…
In many ways, it’s just another example of the cliched “change of heart” narrative, in which a bigot sees the error of his/her ways only when personally affected by the bigotry.
You’re not wrong. And I’d also add in: this was how society was in the 1990's and early 2000's. Yes, there was a spectrum, and yes, The Man Show branded itself as being further along that Bell Curve than, say, Late Night with Jay Leno.
