While I agree that pressing the point gets shit done, it’s nobody’s business whom you decide to forgive. That’s her personal choice, not yours or mine.

I disagree with the idea that privileged people can’t have a valid opinion on what’s offensive or not. People from marginalized groups can be wrong too.
Most of the examples of blackface being removed are either 100% harmless or are actually a commentary on racial dynamics and the stupidity of blackface. God this push this week to remove these particular episodes are dumb as fuck.
She has revisionist history though. If you go back to initial adoption vids, which you can’t now, she clearly was told all these of these things likely would happen and she chose to ignore it. Also she specifically sought out a child with special needs, even though she was discouraged from doing so, and claimed she…
This makes you the opposite of cynical.
Maybe I’m cynical, but I have trouble believing that we, as a society, can function without any sort of policing whatsoever. If the ultimate answer is that caring about serving your community effectively and justly means resigning from serving as a police officer, doesn’t that just mean that the only police officers…
I always thought of it as this:
I seem to remember Anne Rice taking out a full page ad to denounce the casting of Tom Cruise but took it back and apologized to him after the films release.
What?! This movie was highly enjoyable and Tom Cruise and his wig were campy, scenery-chewing perfection. I gotta say, I’ve been visiting this site since it launched but I think I’m done. Between that ghastly “breaking quarantine for dick” article and the current writers’ insistence on writing entire articles sneering…
Megan is wrong. Interview is a campy delight and It’s my favorite Tom Cruise performance ever. I’m still sad we never got a sequel.
Are you the same writer who wrote that trashy spiel on Father of the Bride a few weeks ago? My God, chick, you are on a roll...
1. How is giving racist trolls another platform to spread their hate (leveraging Timberlake’s massive instagram following for visibility) being a “better ally”?
So...how does allowing racist trolls to fuck up one’s comments section advance literally anything?
It’s a lose-lose-lose-lose-lose, because the opinions on how to deal with racist trolls are not monolithic.
If you turn the comments off, you get Seales’s complaint.
If you leave the comments on & don’t engage with them, you get dragged for giving them a platform.
If you leave the comments on & do engage with them,…
Also, while I’m sure there are plenty of racist Justin Timberlake fans, it’s a leap to assume that everyone who comments on his Instagram is a fan of his work. That’s not how the internet works.
I would say a white celebrity being able to turn off the comments when they selectively decide to discuss racism is…
Yeah. Not giving a platform to performative racism isn't the same thing as being a fake ally. Timberlake put that picture out there and called for justice. No deputy dawgs and don'tchomeonyourwokes get to use his account to dispute his statement. It's fast, efficient, and it avoids stupid arguements, and I'm okay…
I look at it like not giving them a voice. I dismiss greys here after i tell them to kill themselves.
party big wigs aren’t pressed about Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation (an alarming precedent for those who come forward with credible accusations against powerful men,
How are Tara Reade’s allegations credible? She said one year ago that she didn’t even think the issue she had with Biden was sexual harassment, that it was more being disrespected because she was a woman, and now a year later she, what, remembered, that she was not only harassed but sexually assaulted? She can’t…
