What pisses me off most about President Dipshit inserting himself in this story is that per his proposed healthcare reform, the children suffering like that here at home would be left to die while their parents are saddled with a copious amount of medical debt.

As someone who was on set that day....everything he’s saying is true. Watching the playback the next day was astounding. She had a few more demands that I’m surprised he didn’t mention.

SHe isn’t saying she is! She is only making a comparison on how it can be so pervasive but you might not realize at first. She didn’t compare her struggle to the struggles of POC at all. This is what so many people are missing here. It’s absolutely insane to twist her words into that. Please go read it again.

Truthfully, I’m a PR savant. It’s a dark gift I’ve yet to properly exploit.

Megan, I really respect you as a writer and journalist, but I feel like this take is a bit meanspirited. She is at least trying to acknowlede her own ignorance here, and we’re supposed to be outraged? The road to self awareness has to start somewhere. I would also bet money that at least half of the people on this…

Honestly, I kind of think I get what she means. I think she means the realization that racism is more than people saying the N-word, it’s also people immediately being wary of a black man wearing a hoodie. It’s really easy to miss how pervasive racism and sexism are if you don’t take micro aggressions and smaller,…

As as a WOC...I don’t really have an issue with what she said. She’s realizing there’s racism and sexism around her which is great. Yes, she said a little clumsily, but at least she said it. Nor did she discount racism or slander WOC. So I have no issues with her, unless I’m missing something?

Whoa...how about a spoiler alert?!? I just started Game of Thrones and am only on the second episode of season one. I had not idea she ends up fucking some dragons!

It’s not weird. Many of the core cadre of jezebel writers are, and always have been, bullies, who view all events through the lens of “how can I feel morally superior by putting someone else down”. The form has changed since kindergarten, but the motivations haven’t.

Right, because it can’t possibly be that the systemic nature of the problem can blind both the afflicted and the blessed. No better way to encourage enlightenment than to belittle those who stumble along trying to find it.

Here here for willful misinterpretation of context! Great job Megan, really doing your readers a service here!

Super awesome when a white person is at least attempting to have a discussion about sexism or racism and trying to understand to immediately write an article shitting on them that’s really productive

Was it a clumsy analogy, sure, but it’s like the Winter is Coming, some people hear it all the time, so they live with it and confront it on a daily basis, other peoples have never been exposed to it, because of their climate privilege, but then they are exposed to all these snowflakes and OH MY GOD WINTER IS COMING,…

It’s weird when a feminist blog tells a well-intentioned woman to shut up.

I think DeMaario being branded a rapist is a cultural problem.

Wait, wut?

She was reared since childhood for her role as monarch, which Prince Philip was not. I’m not blaming her for his terrible attitudes.

I mean, shade is the monarchy’s primary means of communication.  They literally CAN’T say exactly what they think, so they’ve had to master it as a means of survival. And I love it.

Why is everyone leaving us??? :( :(

THIS! And congratulations 🍾
