Tucker Carlson is drawing enough attention that MSNBC is airing clips and outright calling him a white supremacist. This could turn out fun.

Man who says racist things on a racist network who invites proud racists as guests and defends our president’s racist comments, might in fact be a racist.

I just saw a video where JP "debunks" white privilege, and holy poo poo, I can't believe anyone would be convinced by it. It was a 10 minute rant where he actually addresses the subject for ony 2 mins. One of his arguments is that if white privilege exists because Whites are majority, then it's actually majority privilege, which is the result of living in any culture and says what's the point of building a culture if you can't gain any benefits from it.

that's what always pisses me off when peterson fans try to pretend he's one of the good ones and isn't anti-woman or white nationalist. as a white american i feel more kinship with a black american or hispanic american than i do say a white briton. those people are my culture not some nebulous "white culture" (a thing that doesn't exist).

plus how could a philosophy professor be unaware of the concept of tyranny of the majority, i assume he's read mill. or for people so supposedly obsessed with classical culture you'd think they'd have heard of ochlocracy.

yeah as someone who has lived my entire life in places that are at least 1/3 african american, when he says he doesn't get the label african american or what african american culture entails i'm just like "no poo poo, you're a white canadian"

it's not a persuasive argument i guess unless your perspective on the world doesn't include dozens of daily interactions with black people

Thin blonde. There's one other woman I've seen who might be white but I'm not sure how she identifies / if she's a full cast member or just a gig by gig person.

There's a jock-y white dude who's done some funny stuff too lately but Im not sure if he's an official cast member either.

Okay so Devan and I had a pretty difficult time picking out the name! I kind of thought we were never going to agree on one! I love unique names! My name is fairly unique and I loved never having to share a name with someone else in my school or work. Devan, on the other hand, likes unique but not too unique of a name.
At first we both liked (Devan actually loved) the name Taylee.. Then I did a little research and decided there are quite a few Taylee's out there and that it was too common of a name. So it was a no for the name Taylee.
Then I thought of the name McKarty.. Which I still absolutely LOVE this name, but sadly Devan literally HATED it! I tired and tried to talk him into it! Then I figured I couldn't name her something that he really didn't like, so out went the name McKarty.
Then we tried to combined both of our favorite names.. McKarty and Taylee and came up with Maylee. We both liked it but wasn't in love with the name.. So we kept thinking..
I know of a little girl named Nayvie and love the name! Devan actually liked it too! So for a minute we thought about naming her that but then decided it just wasn't suppose to be her name!

Then one day Devan came home from work and said he was drove past a sign that said "LAKIN" and asked what I thought about it. I actually LOVED the name! We both Loved it! YAY! I decided to change up the spelling a little bit to make it more of a girly name and that is how we came up with
LAKYNN!
The middle name just kind of seemed to go with it! There isn't any family meaning behind it, just a cute name we both liked! :)

Here are all the names that made "the list"

Taylee
McKarty
Nayvie
Maylee
Kamree
Nykee
Taislee
Taigley
Tenley
McKamey
McKartnee

the two worst dumb white people naming trends are last names as first names and faux-celticism which mainly consists of adding an unnecessary h next to a vowel

Meanwhile, the recently married Aerith and Sephiroth Jackson breath a sigh of relief and count their blessings that at least they weren't named after some shithole president. Christ, that would be beyond embarrassing to have to live "Donald" down for your whole life.

It's a pretty interesting name. One person I used to work at the same company as had the name last name Crazy Thunder.

There was also someone I went to school with that was two years older than me named Talon Cooney.

Yeah, the guy's a pretty big manchild. I love them both to death, don't get me wrong, they helped me pay my bills when I lost a paycheck from getting hernia surgery, but naming your kids after anime is pretty hosed up.

Unless it's Goku and Vegeta. They are literally the only acceptable anime names.
