Meanwhile, the actually bomber and murderer was a fundamentalist christian terrorist, Eric Rudolph. He was given a sweetheart deal to protect him from execution. Rudolph tried to murder doctors and clinics who provide women health care, and he bombed LGBTQIA bars and nightclubs.

    The coffee at McDonalds is still insanely hot and that is the reason I won't even consider drinking it. I had it once (new to the US) and badly burned my mouth. Also, keeping it this hot destroys any taste it might have had.

    Basics ... October 1991, Americans were riveted by the spectacle of an all-white, all-male Senate Judiciary Committee questioning Anita Hill, the African-American law professor who had accused Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment. .... Hill’s testimony would have special significance, as it was the first time someone had so publicly shared her account of workplace harassment.

    That's the thing I've always found to be the worst part of this mess. When you put your pet down because you don't want them to suffer anymore, it's considered humane and the right thing to do. If a loved one wants to be put down because they don't want to suffer anymore, it's an atrocity. Kevorkian should be celebrated.

Only if I was too far gone and they'd tried everything etc. Just make me comfortable as best as you can and let me go out on my own terms... So I guess I owe this guy one.

    Jack Kevorkian seems to have meant well, but some of his actions were questionable at best. According to Wikipedia: "According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, 60% of the patients who died with Kevorkian's help were not terminally ill, and at least 13 had not complained of pain. The report further asserted that Kevorkian's counseling was too brief (with at least 19 patients dying less than 24 hours after first meeting Kevorkian)"

I should be able to leave this earth, and this pain, with dignity. He provided that. My mom's friends were in the gay community during the AIDS epidemic in California. The way hers friends had to die, alone on a plastic sheet in a hotel room. Why on earth should we have to leave this earth alone? She would have been arrested if she stayed with her friend while he self delivered. No one deserves that.

    While I am a firm believer in death with dignity, Kevorkian was just creepy. He took way too much pleasure in helping people die IMO. He always gave me serial killer vibes. He needs to be left out of this debate. I am a cancer patient and would love to have assisted suicide as an option when this journey gets too rough but this man perverted the cause IMO and I don't look to him as a positive influence on this issue. If anything he made it worse and he earned my disgust.

    i'd upvote this several times if i could. as a kid i didn't understand the treatment of my dad when he returned from overseas - the name calling, the spitting on his uniform. my dad held his head high during it all. after all these years i offered to take him on an honor flight to the memorial and he declined as it still causes him pain...and there is anger there as well towards the protesters. not because they were against the war but that they took their anger out on the soldiers/sailors/pilots who were living up to their oath and not the politicians that were using it as part of the military industrial complex cash machine. however, he is glad to see that those who do protest actions now have realized the separation of those who give policies and actions and those who have sworn to uphold their oath of honor

    These people were mostly drafted. They would rather have been anywhere else. The generals fooled LBJ into prolonging the war with fake body counts that showed the USA was winning. He figured it out, and did not run in 1968, allowing Nixon, who won, to prolong the war even further. My friend was called a baby killer when he came back from being stationed in the Philippines for 3 years. He enlisted and that's why he was stationed at Subic Bay, as he was 1-A and not in college, so did it to avoid being sent to Vietnam.

    I'm watching GOT again right now and watched Gleeson's scenes knowing the public confused the actor with the character. He was amazing in that role, but I thought Ramsey was the character who deserved all the hatred and more. That actor (I don't know his name) was in Dirt, the Motley Crew movie, and I had no idea it was the same actor. Whoever did the casting for GOT deserves every award for casting. I don't even like shows like this and its the 3rd time I'm watching it

    Not to mention that Boris Karloff, the actor who did the most well known portrayal of the monster, and was known by family, friends, and coworkers to be the sweetest man in the world, had people, mainly children, scared of him because of the part he played. Same goes for a lot of actors who play the evil characters. Many of them are also real sweethearts, but the public cannot seem to separate the real person from the fictional parts they play. Yes, I know not all actors who play evil characters are sweethearts, but I’m not talking about them. I’m only talking about the otherwise nice people who are equated with the awful people they have portrayed.

    It wasn't "the US" that got upset. The the owners of CBS television network broadcasting company that freaked out because they were worried about how advertisers would react. That's it. The actual US citizens ranged from "I couldn't care less" to "OMG where can I find the video?" (YouTube was spawned by people trying to find video!) Why don't non-Americans understand that what you see or hear from American media rarely reflects the views of the American public.

    Other men in that theater were doing the same thing. However the cop noticed that Paul was looking at other men and decided to target him for being gay. His career was destroyed entirely by a homophobic cop. This was normal at the time. Raiding adult theaters and saunas so they could destroy the lives of queer people.

I dream of a world where a teacher can just tell employers from other industries, "Management skills? I managed 145 teenagers!" and get good jobs in other fields before they burn out.

    Teacher here! *ducks* We get no respect from the students, parents or administrators. Just finishing the year, had a student come in for the first time in 87 days asking what they need to do to pass the class. uh.... pretty much impossible at this point. Parent calls admin screaming. Admin comes at me screaming. Problem is, neither students or parents are held responsible for minimal standards of behavior or attendance. No. I will NOT pass the student just because everyone is yelling at me. More than enough graduate from school not knowing how to read, sign their own names or do basic math because parents who don't actually PARENT know how to yell instead. I feel BAD for these children. They don't really understand what they are losing and you can't go back once you figure it out! The stress is killing us who care. That's why the good ones bail for other - safer, saner, jobs.

Lots of good teachers suffer from depression and burnout. The bad ones and the very bad ones stay forever because they don't care, and being a teacher also gives them a captive audience. With the exception of politics, I think it's the profession that attracts the highest number of narcissist, control-freak motherf...

The people telling him that have been complaining about how horrible America is and that we need to "make America great again." So they don't like it? Why not follow their own advice and get out? I don't care where you stand. Just stop being a hypocrite by "get out" followed by "make it great again " what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

    Wearing socks with pigs on them and kneeling for the anthem?? He forgets where he comes from and what great country he lives in and why he was able to play a sport and get paid millions for it. All because of George Floyd who was nothing but a piece of sh*t and got what he deserved. Luckily everyone woke up to what he really is and banned him from the NFL. He wasn't that great a player anyways.

    My problem is that other athletes were doing this before him. He picks it up and acts like it was all his idea. Otherwise, I appreciate the protest. 8 have trouble with the anthem at games b/c it feels like blind patriotism and toxic nationalism.

    Heard, was psychologically, emotionally, and physically abusive....what kind of response do you expect from someone enduring that kind of treatment? Were the roles reversed, the mob would be screaming about "Victim blaming" but because it's a woman, doing these things to a man, that same mob can't bring themselves to call it what it is. "Even if she was terrible, so was he....dur, well in fact, wait a minute....that's actually probably why she terrible!" Every past relationship of Depp's sung his praises, everyone who knew the man spoke of his kindness and generosity, while Heard was shown, over and over to be not only a liar, manipulative and to have had a history of violence against other lovers. Being flawed, having d**g issues, especially when those issues are at least partly do to the various forms of abuse being endured, doesn't equate to being "toxic"

    So even though Johnny's other relationships were normal, according to the women he was with, he's toxic because of the f****d-up relationship with a proven liar. Amber Heard did more damage to his reputation than anything else and the fact that dispite PROOF that she was an unmitigated liar, folks still want to put blame on the man. Seems to me there's a whole lot of sexism going on.

Ask any single mother who has had every single horrible part of her life picked apart in divorce court as she fought to get single custody from her abusive ex... I was there in court testifying when they cut open my Mom's life... If you feel sorry for Johnny, you should feel sorry for every woman who has to go through the same thing or worse. Johnny didn't have it any worse than they do and that's the shame of our society, not that he had to go through it too

    Depp sued Heard because she claimed to have been a victim of domestic abuse - without naming him. Depp lost a libel case against a UK newspaper (The Sun) which called him a "wife beater" - naming him as such - but somehow Depp won his libel case against Heard, who never publicly accused him of anything. His lawyers did a very good job of demolishing Heard's character in court. "They" did not choose to go to court: it was entirely down to Johnny Depp.

    Al Franken got what he took responsibility for. He admitted to acting inappropriately, and resigned honorably. The person accusing him later partially refuted their accusation and basically Franken was guilty of making some bad jokes. It's sad he's gone, but that's how a decent society functions. He might very well be the last politician to do the right thing and I appreciate the example he set, even though he kinda f****d up

    He never took responsibility, he denied he did anything wrong, claimed he make a joke, etc. And no, that person never refuted their own claim but backed it up with photo evidence and a letter from Franken apologizing where he admitted it! And there were 7 other women who accused him. But the one you are victim shaming is Leanna Tweeden, who there is a photo of him groping her breasts when she was unconscious, and him laughing (he also kissed her without consent when she was unconscious). He issued a weak apology by letter, saying he was only making a joke when he assaulted her. He openly denied 7 other victims, including a former high ranking Democrat Party staffer, he only admitted to Tweeden bc she had pics. You are one sick person to lie and make excuses for sexual assault, and then try to deny what happened to the victims and lie about it al-franken...171116.jpg al-franken-02-ht-jc-171116.jpg

    Not quite why she was so hated. Most people were against the war - that was nothing special. However she went and hung out with the enemy and had a photo shoot playing around on the enemies canons while we had boys dying at that moment and before and after. She disrespected our soldiers who were giving their lives - who didn't choose to be in the military or to be in that war to begin with.

Coincidentally, their story didn't even have a passing similarity to reality, they straight up started making s**t up as they went.

    I think people are forgetting that she was dragged through the mud when she was just a little girl, she wants to make the world better. Whats wrong with that. Also people keep attacking her looks....wtaf, she is a beautiful girl but even if she wasnt, wtf does it matter?

    It's sad her other activism has resulted in the splintering of the Fridays for Future movement in Germany. Of course she has the right to speak out on other matters - everyone does - but in this case, it has weakened her prime cause, which was the climate and environment.

    I dont think shes massively hated in general. There is very much a certain corner of the internet that doesnt like young women who are angry and not sexy. Also, climate change action both stresses and bores people; she bears some of the brunt of that tension I think.

    My main problem with Greta Thunberg is that she talks like no one is doing anything, when in fact, a lot of people all over the world are doing amazing things. I think to ignore or minimize the works of so many people is simply wrong.

    No, he was hated because he tried doing "gangsta rap" after NWA became popular. Everybody saw through his charade and got tired of him quickly. [ ................... ] Noticeably, the only 1980s "party rapper" who survived the "gangsta rap" phenomenon was LL Cool J. Why? Because he used ~boxing~ as his image, which lent toughness without criminality. He went to gym and bulked up, giving him credibility the public were willing to buy.

    Milli Vanilli. They wanted to be popular by being frontmen, and were sort of bullied into doing it because they were attractive. The real singers were in agreement, so I don't know why Rob and Fab took the hit for everyone involved. The music and videos were great! Wish it had gone on for longer.

    People acted like it had never been done before. The same producer (Frank Farian) had done exactly the same with Boney M in the '70s and '80s. And yet Boney M is still popular. (To be fair, their lead singer, Liz Mitchell, actually could sing and did sing on the records and in concert. Bobby Farrell didn't sing on the albums but he did in concerts.)

    Just by looking on all the docs about her life, her marriage and her family I have to think about these lines from a German singer's song: you can sue some banks, read the bible, or ask Whitney but all of them have no clue about love. I guess she was too famous, surrounded by too many wrong advisors to really live a life fulfilled with love, respect and honesty. Maybe that lead to her downward spiral... being the center of many but all alone emotionally.

    Bobbie Brown had nothing to do with Whitney's death. 1st, her being pressured to stay in the closet, and 2nd, HER d**g addiction led to her death. She was a grown-assed woman who made her own decisions, just like her grown-assed daughter. Was Bobby Brown a prince, no, but folks need to stop letting Whitney off the hook for her own failings, it was HER ADDICTION that lead to her death.

    Yeah, they both enabled each other, more or less, or at least were equally to blame for bringing d***s into the equation. What people don't seem to understand is how many stars were given d***s just w***y-nilly, and when you're tired and need to go on stage and hide your truth, a little pick me up looks mighty inviting. Just a slippery slope from there for both of them, but that was the music scene in the 80s and 90s.

    Since the commenters ask, it was even called Hatha-hate if I remember correctly. It came about from a couple things. One was over exposure and doing too many films she said and the other was the oscar speech and stuff surrounding her win for Les Mis. It was huge at the time on the internet and really silly. She credits Christopher Nolan with saving her career she says with her Catwoman role in Dark Knight.

    The facts were known, but the liars and propagandists thought that young people would swallow the lies. They didn't. Funny how a couple dozen jewish hostages (who were never abused during their captivity) led to endless pearl clutching, but 1200 Palestinians held in israeli prisons WITHOUT TRIAL barely got any mention. [ https://apnews.com/article/israel-detention-jails-palestinians-west-bank-793a3b2a1ce8439d08756da8c63e5435 ] Many of those 1200 held in israeli prisons are children, and many of them are subjected to torture and sexual abuse. Look up Camp 1391. Look up who taught the yanks how to torture and mentally abuse kidnapped people held at Guantanamo. [ .................. ] I see that the supporters of genocide don't like the facts getting out.

    I think the problem Israel had with Hamas was with the hundreds killed, many of whom were horribly mistreated before being killed. As for the hostages not being mistreated - well, if you want to define murdered hostages as "never abused", that's up to you, but I can't imagine anyone agreeing with you. Thing is, the problem I've got with Israel is its response: rather than try to capture or otherwise stop the terrorists, they've been attacking civilians and so far killed tens of thousands of innocents. Hamas did wrong; Israel has done worse.

    Agreed. He said "yeah" a little too loud and the press, eager for one-line characterizations for a public they consider too dumb to understand things, killed him over his "yell," which is a worse sin than actual mismanagement. Like Muskie for his tears which were worse than lies, Gore for being "boring" which is worse than being wrong, McGovern for his "mistakes" that were worse than his opponent's crimes. Too bad. Dean's a good person, and smart, if a bit short tempered in the face of fools. A social liberal and relatively conservative fiscally, a minority lieutenant governor who ascended when the governor died, and became popular because he did a good job. He'd have made a good president.

    I used to like Brie Larson (united states of tara was fantastic) and she's a decent enough actress....but she's also one of those preachy ideologues, who seems to feel that the only way to "build women up" is to tear men down, and she's kinda arrogant. Subscribing to the idea that her films are disliked only because of sexism or misogyny, and not because there's valid criticism to be made.

    Brie Larson is disliked by a lot of people because of how terrible the Captain Marvel film was.

    30 Famous People That Became Extremely Unpopular Without Any Good Reason Victoria Beckham. Not a fan myself, but did she really deserve all the haters? Esp after Beckham was unfaithful? And then his lover became a z-list celebrity for a while? I'm not so sure. Usually the 'sisterhood' supports women when that kind of thing happens, but women just never warmed to her. I've never really understood why she became so unpopular.

    The issue with her is her image... being this cool as steel Spice Girl, then marrying a talented footballer and turning him into a fashion icon and being successful herself adds maybe too much for the media (and / or women specifically... don't you love tearing your teeth into another on every given chance?!)... but ok, it's maybe part of the game. And here, again, when I saw that Beckham "doc" on Netflix, it changed several oppinions I had (ok, before that I already knew that this family is far from being a UK-version of that OJ Simpson attorney clan).

    David Beckham was never unfaithful. It was never proven, it was just a story in the tabloids at the time. Ans the reason the UK press didn't like her for a time was because they were led to believe she was a hindrance to his football career. I'd watch the documentary on Netflix. Its eye opening.

    This one is justified. They're hypocrites. They've made a career out of bashing the very institution that made them rich and famous. Without the Royal Family, Meghan would have disappeared along with the rest of the cast of Suits by now. Harry is a whiny man child that blames everyone else for his problems. He even tried to blame William and Kate for his wearing a Nazi costume, but he was a grown man serving in the British armed forces at the time so he had no one to blame but himself.

    So....he threw his family under the bus, because his b-list tv actress wife got upset that she, an american inserting themselves into a millennia of british tradition, wasn't the center of attention, made no attempt to understand that system of tradition, yet expected that it would be bent and broken for the benefit of american wife of the 5th in line for the throne. Hypocrisy, manipulative lies, the desperation to wear the mantle of "victim" so as to keep the undeserved spotlight on her, not them, but HER specifically. And no, before anyone tried to paint this as being about race, it wouldn't matter if she was white, yellow of green, her actions, behavior and attitude are the problem.

    To a lot of British people Harry was still the little boy walking behind his mothers coffin with the eyes of the world on him, most saw motherly instincts kick in to care about him and only want the best for him in his life, when he met Meghan and got engaged ‘everyone’ was happy for him but then he turned against us and said we the British public didn’t like Meghan because of her skin colour, nope, the hate towards Meghan came after he/they made negative comments about the general public and his family

    Here's my issue with them. The royal family's schtick for literal centuries has been that they are superior to others by virtue of their bloodline and genealogy. But yet they make out that they were surprised that elements of the royal family were racist. Harry dressed up as a Nazi for a costume party and we're supposed to believe he was shocked by his family's views.

    Her desperation, and that obvious fake smile she wears, make her very unlikable. It doesn't have anything to do with her skin color, it's how she acts like an entitled, self absorbed, riding the coat tails of her brother and sister in law brat for attention. Harry seems miserable with her whenever they are out, and I don't think her late mother in law would appreciate how she behaves.
