I comprehended what you said just fine, assuming you meant what you said. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t have contradicted you.

Your right to have a nuclear family and raise your children with one man and one woman is not in question. When you decide that others have to live the way you choose to live, that’s when you’re just flat out wrong. If you don’t want to live an “alternative lifestyle”(whatever that means) then no one is forcing you,…

He already hasn’t done what he said. He said he wanted to drain the swamp, and then proceeded to appoint(and consider) every Washington insider possible. Jeff Sessions, Bob Corker, Mitt Romney, John Bolton, et al.

Damn right, I am self-righteous.

Imagine being so furious about being asked to treat minorities like human beings that you write a novel-length post whining about “political correctness.”

“marginalized by political correctness”

There are deplorable liberals, yes. Some well intentioned idiots. Others frothing at the mouth jerks just as bad as the worst alt-right neo-nazi.

They sucked my brother in. He’s a devout christian and i ask him, how can you believe in these things trump says and still consider yourself a christian?

Trump’s defense is that he will protect gays from blacks and Muslims. Pitting one minority against another is not American nor is it actually friendly to these groups. The far right in Europe tried this tactic, pretending to care about gays, and it backfired.

Trump is not particularly anti-gay so far as I can tell.

Didn’t I say that no all of them were deplorable but many were?

Reddit is not just a mirror. It’s also one medium by which this stupidity and hate is transmitted. Yesterday someone was making fun of Thomas Friedman’s facile graph showing human intellectual or maybe emotional capacity being outstripped by our technology. I think most people thought the most likely manifestation of…

Yeah, I don’t use reddit, but it seems like the 10% or so of the site that is absolutely terrible gets all the attention, while the actually useful subreddits are generally ignored because they aren’t newsworthy. I mean, it’s at least some part reddit’s fault since they could certainly be less hands-off with actual…

This is Donald Trump’s America.

I don’t even know if it would be a bad thing for press outlets to be denied credentials. Trump is belligerent and evasive and openly hostile to the press. During the campaign, he tricked reporters in his press pool into airing elaborate commercials for his hotels, and he used them as props as his rallies, siccing his…

“Please extend this to february 2020.”

How did I miss out on that as a child???? I am so sad. But I can imagine how glorious it must have been (especially with a book). I love it.

This idea that our fellow citizens are innately good people.
