JFC. Democrats are being handed this election to them on a silver fucking platter, and they want to set it on fire. Support your candidate, don’t denigrate the other, and whoever wins the nod, vote -D. It’s really not that fucking hard.

I do love a millennial who thinks 40 years olds are so old we don’t know what the internet is or how to use it. (do they not teach the history of the technology in school?)

ANGELA KARDASHIAN.

Stirring rebuttal. The gif,the last refuge of those without a point to make

“was shoved” was your word choice. Which I’ve already quoted. It’s the passive voice. You’re implying Jones was forcibly moved into this role (“shoved”). My guess is that you’ll reply saying you didn’t imply “didn’t have any agency” by dint of the phrasing avoiding absolutes and you’ll quibble with minute wording.…

I’m discounting the voices of black Americans? but you’re the one discounting what Leslie Jones (a black American) has to say about her own role. Come on friend, don’t be obtuse here. Similarly, the Simone situation is markedly different.

Winston Zeddemore was originally written for Eddie Murphy. But when Eddie Murphy turned down the role because he was too busy working on Beverly Hills Cop, they decided to change the role to a less-comedic one. They also realized they needed a straight man as a foil to the three comedians. Winston Zeddemore was not a…

Leslie Jones was shoved into a harmfully stereotypical role

You are the most annoying person in the world. Go put your face in a garbage disposal.

It’s almost like that’s not what the article said at all.

Not that famous. There’s a lot of folks who don’t watch SNL.

Oh come on, she’s nowhere near being a household name the way Melissa McCarthy became after Bridesmaids.

Wow. You just found the perfect balance with this comment. It’s not exactly mean and callous, but it isn’t overly-fawning either. Well done.

I think he’s right about that Hitler point. Hitler was a human being. He didn’t hide in closets and disappear at night to a secret place. So many people think the comparisons of Trump, and Hitler or Mussolini are gross exaggerations because Trump is just some dude. A loud dude, but a human being nonetheless. They…

We’re finally going to let you run a show, Candi!

What I don’t understand is that a show that started 20 years ago no longer originated in the 1980s.*

Being nice is hard when your default programming is sarcasm haha, which mine is. I have to work on it constantly.

I remember when he started saying all that stuff though, people were pretty ruthless - I def saw a lot more from people than just commentary on his music at that point. At the very least it was a huge spectacle at a time when he was having a very obvious mental breakdown. Making fun of his music is fair game though,…

I like how he phrased it as “a prescription drug called Adderall”. As though Adderall is really obscure, or hard to come by, or something.

Yo, I’m pro-Bernie and even *I’m* embarrassed for you. Stop. Just stop.
