Watch it, you're falling into your own trap by using that word "insensitive" ....

She's a white woman. You're asking her to abstract from her own experience and intellectually conceptualize the legitimacy of *your* subjective experience in America as a black man.,,,

But wait - isn't she asking Chuck to do the same thing for her? So why be mad at it?

Like I said, it's just a woman being a woman. How a woman is treated varies widely depending on how beautiful people think she is. And how she acts varies widely on how beautiful she herself thinks she is. It's a big thing for them .....

I'm willing to bet that a lot of black women (if they were watching) were made uncomfortable by Chuck making jokes about fat girls. They just wouldn't stupidly compare it to the Sterling issue because they have a unique understanding of it being black themselves.
You don't have to be a male or a Black person to realize the absurdity in comparing Sterling to Charles Barkey in this case....

I think you have a lower opinion on females and their ability to rationalize than I do..

Out here in my damn drawls
Charles is/was fat and never shied away from fat jokes and neither has anyone on the cast. He always goes in on San Antonio but these cacs couldn't wait to try and vindicate one of their own by reaching in their bag of false equivalence :pacspit:


Minorities being seen as enemies and discriminated against = a fat man making jokes about fat people in a fat city

:comeon: :aicmon:

thought police gone mad.

Barkley's always been a guy who's tried to be funny. He's there to analyze basketball and make people laugh. Not every joke is going to appeal to everyone...we have to have "safe" comedy now. It sucks, but...this is what we want I guess. :manny:

Meh, everyone has a voice on the internet. They were offended by it and decided to write a article on it.:ld: I didn't think the joke was in bad taste and Chuck and Shaq know about the struggles of weight loss, so I don't think it came from a place of hate.

The author was wrong for insinuating that this situation and Sterling's debacle have similar details. Beadle making that comparison is laughable . When someone pulls her card for tweeting out that picture of Stiviano, she'll fall back and play the victim before she realizes that her stance was silly.

Political blogs in general are a horrible place. A lot of editorializing as an attempt to get personal attention.


Think Progress has some smart people involved, but like any other website... there is plenty of content at sub-average quality.



This kind of reaching makes me wanna rub icy hot all over the screen.
