THe issue of getting rid of those other sports programs, is that plenty of students from poor backgrounds rely on athletic scholarships to get an education. Are we basically going to tell them tough shit?

This X 100. The article is filled with half assed counter arguments that rely on faulty assumptions, but this one annoyed me the most.

Thats just ridiculous. For many college students, the best opportunities for work are on campus. What about the kid who works in the campus bookstore? The student lifeguards at the pool? Students who work at the campus coffee house? You going to take away their scholarships because they don’t have parents with money…

Well fuck those assholes too.

Don’t go down the street to McDonalds! Even if Wendy’s IS mean, McDonalds is still absolute trash. Go to Burger King! The food is wayyy better, and they have way better deals when you use their app on your phone.

Nobody has clapped back at me. In fact, the person I was talking to was white. Your gif doesn’t add anything to the conversation, but thanks for butting in with some inane bullshit I guess?

I didn’t say anything about allies. And your idiotic snarky hashtag adds no weight to your point. Generalizing an entire group is idiotic whenever it is done. But hey, if it makes you feel better, have at it hoss.

Exactly. What makes me laugh are all of the people who genuinely they believe they are superior to people who enjoy nostalgia, all they while they are fans of stranger things. They are all the same. Cheap attempts at pandering via nostalgia.

If Ms. Daniels is finally the one to take Trump down, I think we should start a crowdfund to make her a multi-millionaire, for saving this country.

I never said we were. I said you shouldn’t make sweeping generalizations about a group of people, because it is the height of stupidity.

Dude, you don’t have to be an asshole and generalize an entire group just because the top 1% of us are stupid fucking assholes themselves. I agree with you, wealthy white men are often greedy, racist, lacking in empathy, and have fragile egos. You bring up the NFL owners, and they are an excellent example of that. But…

That is a shame. I’m a white dude. I have worked under two different black women, and they were the best managers I ever had. First of all, they were subject matter experts, and knew their stuff better than ANYONE else in the department. They were also (in my experience) more empathetic for situtions that popped up in…

You’ve never had a few drinks at a sporting event? Here in Philly, that is the way things are done!

If AI had Embiid in that championship series, I think the Sixers take the Lakers. Embiid is athletic enough and big enough to take Shaq on. BTW, I’m prepared for the heat I’m about to get with this comment.

Fuck off with that. AI looks fine. He has had multiple public appearances the past few years, and dude looks normal. He may be a little chubbier than when he was playing, but dude is in his 40s, and hasn’t played professionally in years. Id like to see you look that healthy at 42. And yeah I’m being overly defensive…

He was for sure drunk. I love AI, he will ALWAYS be my favorite player. I grew as a 6ers fan up watching him do incredible things on the court. It’s awesome that he goes to 6ers games and enjoys drinking a few, just like me. Now, for sure his seat is a hell of a lot better than anything I can afford. It is awesome…

I agree. I believe age of consent should be 18. You can have sex with someone earlier than that (min 15) if the age difference is 2 years.

I like the way you think. People need to keep pressing this issue. 15 is far too young. Change is often an incremental process, that is why it is important to keep fighting for change

You are 100% correct. 15 is too young. I imagine the vast majority of us would agree with you

I just don’t get it. I am hoping it is ignorance of the violence that happened the last time there was expropriation... Maybe wilful ignorance of what happened in Zimbabwe, where violence was common. The rhetoric being used here seems to clearly indicate that will be the case again. And people here are celebrating. It…
