"The Talk"
Tue Aug-01-17 01:45 PM by legsdiamond

          

Have we discussed this Proctor and Gamble commercial yet?

Makes me sad, angry and disgusted. Also wonder why no Black fathers had any lines. I hope they do another one that highlights our presence.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

Aug 07th 2017

I understand marketing and all, but...
Aug 03rd 2017
44
But it's easy for them to do, when we are quick to accept negative trope...
Aug 04th 2017
49
      So you agree
Aug 04th 2017
69
           No, but you made my point...
Aug 04th 2017
72
                I didn't, but you wanna blame Black people, so go on and cook
Aug 04th 2017
74
                     Weren't you just arguing a stat that had nothing to do with the issue?
Aug 04th 2017
75
                          You're just trolling now.
Aug 04th 2017
78
                               Because you painted yourself in a corner?
Aug 04th 2017
81
                                    Nah, you're just wanting to argue.
Aug 04th 2017
84
                                         Except, this is what you said in #69:
Aug 04th 2017
87
                                              I remember.
Aug 04th 2017
88
                                                   But what you're missing is that *you're* doing it too
Aug 04th 2017
93
                                                        You are literally lying by omission in order to argue.
Aug 04th 2017
98
                                                             Nah, you're trying to recon what you've said earlier and failing.
Aug 05th 2017

102
                                                                            You're still creating alternative facts and deflecting.
Aug 05th 2017
103
                                                                                 Doing neither, you're just being dense
Aug 05th 2017
105
                                                                                      Oh the irony of that coming from you
Aug 06th 2017
106
                                                                                           yes dum dum...a company that sells to women made an ad from their POV
Aug 06th 2017
107
                                                                                           There you go. Show your true colors with the namecalling.
Aug 06th 2017
108
                                                                                           There you go, showing your frail ego again
Aug 06th 2017
109
                                                                                           More empty accusations, repetition, & namecalling. Enjoy ur weekend
Aug 06th 2017

Aug 04th 2017
65
                     It IS a nice message, I'm saying that to say
Aug 04th 2017
67
                          Surely PG did a cost/benefit analysis.

Aug 04th 2017
