As far as I’m concerned, Taibbi and Ames are dead to me. Would you have the same kind of reaction had their satire been racist? Why is misogyny okay if he didn’t actually end up raping someone, but spent a decade talking about how much fun it is to rape, degrade and threaten to kill women? Had he made satire about…

All I can say is that reading this gave me flashbacks to the Seventies and Eighties, where ‘irreverent’ and ‘counterculture’ ‘satire’ were so often conflated with bald-faced misogyny. I feel like this is something that has actually gotten better.

Thats... unreal. I have truly never read anything that disturbing. Shit like that makes me think “Is this the way men really think??” Which is disturbing in and of itself. Satire or not, words like that shouldn’t exist in print.

Wow, thank you for writing this! Those excerpts are pretty tough to get through. I would really like to think that the stories those guys are telling are just an ugly, misogynistic fantasy, and that no actual people were assaulted or harassed. But who knows? Stuff like that really does happen, and it’s a frighteningly…

I’m sorry but I actually had to stop reading this article. I found their own gleeful descriptions of their actions to be so repulsive. Who found this type of writing palatable or interesting. Being a self absorbed asshole in a country where you hold enormous power to violate impoverished girls sexually doesn’t strike…

There goes my appetite. I feel physically ill. How could anyone read those excerpts and think this is a joke? Those sick fucks! I want to crotch kick the shit out of both of them until their dicks don’t work.

I feel the same about feet. They don’t gross me out, so if they don’t smell and you’re not putting them up on something that I may later be touching, like a table, then why do I care? A lot of the concern seems to be about how unsanitary it may be, and while I get that using a public restroom in bare feet is nasty,…

Isn’t that the barefoot person’s problem?

How is it unhygenic for anyone other than the barefoot person? I’m sure her feet have fewer germs than my shoes. She surely washes them more often than I do my shoes.

How is it unhygienic? Are feet picking up way more dirt than shoes do? How is it rude? Because you don’t like it?

I don’t get being perturbed by someone else’s bare feet in an office setting, assuming they don’t stink. Just like...don’t look at her feet? I spend 95% of my time already not looking at people’s feet, so why not make it an even 100%, you know?

I think they’re all pretty much shallow and that Kendall and Kylie are spoiled, but they really do seem to have a healthy and loving family relationship. They’re not without their collective problems. Kim seems to be the most aware and sensitive in terms of social justice issues, and that isn’t saying much, but I…

I recently watched a few seasons of the show during a period of unemployment having never seen it before, and I think they are all essentially good people. They’re flawed obviously, and I think there are valid critiques of them and their behavior (although I’m not sure who among us couldn’t say the same) but I am…

I value that your worry seems to be in protecting youth from being the targets of unfair, lifelong biases. However, I also worry that you’re getting information from an inflammatory source. I am not seeing any hard data that backs up their claims; the only statistic I have heard before is that 95% of youth offenders…

Yeah, I decline to sift through an entire extremist advocacy website to locate your point.

There’s stupid and there’s just fucking off. Sending pics of an underage nude person to a multitude of family and friends is a red flag to me in and of itself. Also wouldn’t this be a candidate for revenge porn these days.

Violent crimes, including murder, are often things that happen in the heat of the moment or whatever. I believe most murderers agree they shouldn’t have done what they did. Pedophiles plan their crimes, groom the victims, argue that they did not commit a crime, and claim they really loved the children they raped. Not…

Also, “At the same time, Alpert says, “I’m being punished for the rest of my life for something that took two minutes or less to do.” “

“Phillip Alpert found out the hard way. He had just turned 18 when he sent a naked photo of his 16-year-old girlfriend, a photo she had taken and sent him, to dozens of her friends and family after an argument. The high school sweethearts had been dating for almost 2½ years. “It was a stupid thing I did because I was…

“Details such as whether the traveler is a serial child rapist versus someone with a decades-old conviction from when he was 19-years-old and his girlfriend was 14 … are significant”
