“But she should be subject to that criticism. It should be an uncomfortable space for a white artist to appropriate black music. It’s only because of her white privilege that Iggy can be in that uncomfortable space but not have it get in the way of her career.”

post shitty, poorly conceived articles, get shitty commenters?

More useless, unverifiable, anonymous rumors.

“So it’s not real? “No.” he responded.

Wow you people really don’t like him, do you?

The AV Club published the exact same article yesterday, was ripped to shreds instantaneously by about 95% of the commenters. Perhaps they work in stupid shifts.

This. If you think he’s guilty and therefore lying about this then that’s one thing (which would also demand actual proof not just blind items and rumors). But you can’t say he’s totally refusing to address it when his straight-forward denial is in the same freaking article.

Yeah, I didn’t get the headline either. Since he is saying he didn’t do it, he discussed it, and there isn’t a lot more you would expect him to say.

The woman who first told the story as a blind item has said it was not Louis CK. Another comic, Doug Stanhope, came forward and said it was him, not Louis CK. So why is he still being tarred with this brush? I’m sure he’s not without faults, but it’s been pretty much verified that this isn’t one of them.

Isn’t him saying...

“So it’s not real? “No.” he responded. “They’re rumors, that’s all that is.””

Spoilers! The relationship continues to be super abusive, and the lead characters continue to be awful. Now with a baby at the end, to reinforce a bit of heterosexual domesticity and balance out all that naughty hardcore XXX spanking.

“Taken out of context” is the most bullshit excuse ever. Shut up or be held accountable you divisive charity case.

Amazing how a few words here and there completely change the meaning of the statement. This is the entire point. We can talk about what we “think” she said or what she “meant” but the reality is she put her foot in her mouth and put the spotlight on herself instead of on the issue she was trying to highlight.

Problem is, her claim is incorrect. Racism is a construct used by the wealthy, the monarchs, the oligarchs, the imperialists and capitalists to keep the poor, the working class divided. Racism is experienced worldwide by various races, for example the caste system in India. As an Irish person, I come from a culture…

Well I guess that’s the problem with shooting your mouth off on Facebook. The platform doesn’t really lend itself to thoughtful nuanced post.

Counterpoint: Fuck Her, I’ve fought, marched, been arrested and bled for equal/civil rights, I was partially raised by people of color, I’ve had significant others of several races and am literally and figuratively colorblind, I’m not saying this to pat myself on the back(I could always do more) ... But I’m racist…

But she is wrong. Saying “yes all white people” is what’s problematic in her post. In the next sentence she then backpedals to “most of you”.

Thanks and yw. I mean.....full disclosure, I have lost jobs too because of a similar communication style. It took me years to realize that my former employers weren’t exactly gutless, and that I hadn’t always communicated exactly what I thought I had.

She’s talking about you and your dumb liberal ass.

Um.
