Fair - the heteronormativity in my comment is a problem. I should do better.

We live in a culture where we consider women trophies to be won, their objections to sex as obstacles to conquer, and interpret an absence of an unqualified, loud, and violent “no” as consent. So yeah - that probably means all of us, me including, have committed acts that the women on the other end probably felt as…
kneeling during the anthem angers a lot of people
I believe you would be best served by ensuring the safety of your neck.
I’m with you on this. If they’re up 25 on you, you don’t get to clamor for “respect”. Don’t want them to run up the score and showboat? Don’t let them. This isn’t high school where “sportsmanship” matters because the talent gap is often huge. You’re all pros.
That’s your fucking response to this?
I’m Jewish. Fuck Miller. He’s a terrible Jew.
“Not to be all “white” and stuff” - should’ve stopped there.
See the point in the article about “come get ya boy?” Well, I’m coming to get you. That was some racist bullshit, and you need to check yourself. Go do some very basic self-education on the history of race “relations” in this country - I might recommend The New Jim Crow, e.g. - and then do some more listening.
I hope it fucking does offend people. And then makes them second-guess themselves.
You AND MarkyMark need to check yo’selves. The reason you think these terms are meaningless is because of how pervasive both racism and misogyny are in America, and people are finally pointing that out. And maybe it’s hitting home a little bit.
Someone else said it much better than I.
And once again.... The comments on an article about how men treat women always justify the need for the article.
“There’s no reason to believe the “unknown” distribution is different from the “known” one.”
I’ll offer one counterpoint. Abuse of power by police manifests itself in many ways beyond people getting shot. And it does so in very different ways when the target of the abuse is a PoC. I don’t have data to back this up, but the perception of police in communities of color is very different than that in white…
I’m not sure what your point is. Are you saying that the issue of police violence is more important because it also affects white people? Or that focusing on the disproportional effects on POCs makes white people care about it less?
Not 50%. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/police-shootings-2017/ Just about 39%. And white people are 63% of the population: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_United_States#White_Americans. So, white people are grossly under-represented in the population of people shot by police…
This is underrated. Well done.
Anthony Mason and Charles Oakley from the 90s Knicks. I mean, I was a 13-year old Knicks fan, so obviously I cheered for them, but something about the fact that neither one of them had a body built for basketball spoke to my pre-puberty dreams. They were definitely two rampaging bulls, but I loved everything about…
