Is this sexism in the room with us?

[–] paultimate14@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I love how the Connect app has user notes, so I can appreciate the irony that I already marked DragonTypeWyvern as "Sexist" before.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social -1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Incels have accused me of that before, so that tracks.

Apparently pointing out their sexism is the real sexism.

For further details refer to the other dork getting mad at this comment chain to see the kind of company you keep.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

You, yes. Me?

Probably a little, everyone is a product of their environment. I don't immediately claim women I don't know can't have earned their intellectual accomplishments and must have traded sexual favors for them though.

Seems pretty stupid, tbh, especially when her dad was famously a lawyer himself and she can certainly afford tutors.

You: "Leave ~~Britney~~ Kim alone, you don't know her, you're sexist."

Also you: "I don't know you but will call you sexist because I didn't get the joke."

Also, did you just assume my gender?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 0 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

Okay buddy conservative stuck in 2012

What's next, bitching about attack helicopters?

Fun little exercise for you:

Point to where that comment refers to your gender.

[–] verdi@feddit.org 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Are these "conservatives" in the room with us?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

You literally just used that lmao

Cya never again.

[–] verdi@feddit.org 1 points 6 hours ago

OK boomer...

[–] spykee_d@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 16 hours ago

Hey, I have heard that before!

[–] Bot@sub.community 8 points 18 hours ago

Judge: Is this true? Kim: This is super awkward

[–] Jumbie@lemmy.zip 19 points 23 hours ago

Kim Kardashian, Attorney General.

Lmao. It’s already evil. Might as well make Dotard’s government hilarious too.

[–] Alpha71@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

Hunh. Good for her.

plans to leave fame behind

Sssssuuuuuure you do. People like her are a fame tautology. They're famous because their famous.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They feed on it. They're attention vampires.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 17 hours ago

botox vampires.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 84 points 1 day ago (6 children)

A trial attorney? I could see it she wanted to be like a corporate attorney or real estate or something, where your character as a person isn't relevant. How is she going to empanel a jury without potential jurors having preexisting feelings about her trustworthiness? "Yeah, she seems sincere, but remember that time on her reality show where she was faking tears for sympathy?"

I don't know her, or how competent she would be at trial, and anyone can be anything they want to be. But also, recognize that choices have consequences. Maybe trading dignity for fame and fortune means you don't get to live any dream you like.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 17 hours ago

she might might relegate it to a PARTNER in law, she will advise said partner, rather than representing a case?

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Remember that time she intentionally published her own sex video and then lied and said it was a leak?

Or the fact that she willingly Married Kanye West..

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

That was pre-Nazi Kanye tbf. Then he went full psycho divorced dad.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 4 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

What? You mean getting a divorce and then deciding to live in a football stadium for a month are psycho actions?

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

To be fair, I don't even like football but I think that's be cool. If I had that kind of influence to do that, I might do it too. That's not the psycho part.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 8 hours ago

No that part was just dudes being dudes come on now

[–] rozodru@pie.andmc.ca 31 points 1 day ago

"Remember the time her Mom intentionally published her sex video" ftfy.

Isn't there an infamous video of her dad removing a briefcase (evidence) from OJ's house in front of reporters? I'd be deeply suspicious of any lawyers from that lineage.

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Did OJ not get away with it?

[–] Ganbat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Robert Kardashian was part of OJ's defense. There was speculation that the bag contained evidence of the murders. When the bag was entered into evidence, its contents were not. Kim Kardashian claims she went through it at the time and it only contained toiletries.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 hours ago

I'm sure the child remembered what she saw in a bag...

[–] Doubleohdonut@lemmy.ca 13 points 23 hours ago

So she's saying she handled the contents of the bag before it was entered into evidence?

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago

Sounds a lot like they got away with it. I'm not saying what they did is right, I just think it sounds like the perfect kind of lawyer for the federal admin of today.

Her dad is Robert Kardashian, who helped defend OJ for murder. Her wanting to become a trial lawyer isnt that surprising.

edit: wrong robert, though Shapiro was also on the team

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 8 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Wait I thought Caitlin Jenner was her dad? (Well, mom now but you get what I mean.)

I'm so confused about how that family works. Why do they have two last names? Divorce?

[–] malle_yeno@pawb.social 6 points 18 hours ago

Yep, they divorced and then mom married into the Jenners. Kim et al. were born when Robert was the dad though, so no last name change for them. The kids that came about after would have been called Jenner.

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Odds on Trump appointing her to the DoJ?

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 hours ago

Not 0% which is a crazy thing to speculate. I say that because she was friendly with trump while a$ap was in jail.

I actually think she would be an improvement from the current DoJ.....what a crazy time to be alive.
