Sheesh - one "protected victim" attacks another "protected victim!"

Who am I supposed to hate, I'm confused and don't know where to turn?

This scenario is so tired...female reporter wants to be one of the guys. She misinterprets a remark. She gets mad. She dashes for the Victim Alarm.

Normally I would have defended Newton over this. But now, all I say say is, “Tough Shitski!”

I've never understood twitter.

Why would I want to know the random thoughts of some hack writer from North Carolina.
I don't understand hastags, or why whenever I look at it on websites, the same tweet appears twice.

Lastly, it really looks like the only thing twitter is good for is making regrettable statements to land you in trouble.

How true! But they never learn, and thus we have case after case of people getting fired or harassed and ending up apologizing like in the old Soviet Union or Mao’s China.<P.

Didn’t Cam also take the knee at games?

You forgot to mention assembling “mall mobs” to loot stores.

It’s a complicated intersectional issue.

You have at least four major separate identity groups at play here - blacks, whites, males, females. Plus who knows how many sub identity groups...

You need a PhD in postmodernism and ethnic studies to figure out who the oppressors and oppressed are.

Yeah, at my job, we had a situation where a black man sexually harassed a white woman, and man, some of the more politically correct types had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how to respond.
