The fact is that the most correct observation anyone can make about US politics over the previous decade is that voting for Hillary Clinton would have fixed literally everything you’re currently suffering from, and you only think this isn’t the case because of misogyny
We gotta pack the court, this is untenable
i personally think it's real bad that we keep letting Elon Musk steal our tax money and use it to ratfuck the planet and we should impose some consequences on him in the future
I think Pete Buttigieg loves his husband and kids and that he lives a "heteronormative lifestyle" because he, personally, enjoys the idea of settling down with a nice guy and raising kids together, and this is fine
I think a lot of people who weren't online and involved in dealing with channers/Gamergate etc. haven't understood until now how deeply depraved the right is
this is what they are all like. they sincerely think not just that women/minorities should face discrimination, but that we should die
i know people want “abolish”, but this would be a massive improvement over the status quo and we can do this and then abolish them later
as a person literate in 1980s film scholarship, this whole situation is just unbelievably on the nose
the male gaze, as depicted by a guy literally filming himself kill a gay woman because he was emasculated
if this was a film it would be panned as absurdly unsubtle
the idea of a woman having to apologize for being seen in public because of her sexual history would have been unthinkable ten years ago. we've reverted SO MUCH on gender/feminism and Gen Z women have no idea what they're missing out on
ok so just for the record Will Stancil is back out there chasing ICE with a different group, which is to say they took his badge and gun but couldn’t take him off the case goddmait
the funny thing about Texans and their paranoia about this stuff is that it's so, so clear their terror of Islam is based on projection of their own guilt
it's the quintessential cowboy state (my family is from there, I lived there for years) & they're convinced they're being colonized
if we had real capitalism Elon Musk would be one of the most failed people in history, and we'd never even have heard of Trump
wow Ken, that is notable
i wonder if it has something to do with the outcome of elections
seriously, Talarico is from Texas. Him saying he supports oil and gas says *nothing* about the viability of this or that politics unless you're planning on Texans being the deciding vote. and if you were hoping Texas would lead the way in decarbonization, I hate to break it to you but...
defending Khalil is a crucial step in reinforcing the *extremely important* norm that your immigration status does not depend on avoiding protected speech which may offend. The First Amendment applies to immigrants too!
A bunch of you are going “defending Biden is just the dumbest thing you could ever do and serious people don’t do it” bc you are terrified of looking in the mirror and realizing you are why we’re in this hellscape, your bitching threw away years of our lives&you’ll be held to account on Judgment Day
spontaneous acts of resistance are occurring everywhere. there are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause
No you don’t get it, the response he’s supposed to have is to go away forever because the journalists put him in his place, that’s their job and their duty, to keep uppity nerds who think anything matters in line.
building on a topic we were discussing yesterday: in large portions of the United States, there is a *very strong* cultural norm that the highest social faux pas is to imply moral deficiencies in others even *or especially* if those things are true. It is because half the country were slavers.
I guarantee you Platner will say anti-trans shit on FOX within a month
everyone posting about Chuck Schumer today is someone who's wishcasted themselves into a world where Congressional minority leadership matters. it doesn't. you are making up a sense of agency so you can blame someone closer to your side than the people actually responsible
I am personally offended as an LGBT person by replies like that that imply none of us have careers, understand systems, or learn how to get by even when we're disadvantaged. It's people walking around begging to be seen as the biggest smol bean in the universe and it's so deeply depressing
I think a lot of you are becoming antisemitic while thinking you're really deftly dodging the risk of becoming antisemitic and it's not a good look and it's possible more dangerous than the overt antisemitism because it's going to be more accepted among people who aren't ready to go mask off
Utter dishonor to our country for this. An act of utmost cowardice, and for nothing
