I am a college English instructor in the South (but I’m from California where the internment camps were taught and visited). One of our lit classes has a text with a collection of haiku written by those in the Japanese internment camps. They are heartbreaking, yet hopeful pieces. And every semester I am heartbroken…

Those people voted for an openly racist, sexist, xenophobic ticket. Those things are literally key pieces of their platform/plans. Those people can claim to not be those things but they cannot claim that they do not support them and in my eyes there’s not a whole lot of difference between the two.

Yeah, thinking an entire group of people deserve less rights for something they have no control over, as well as supporting scientifically disproven and harmful gay conversion therapy and wanting to force women to attend “funerals” for their fetuses if they get an abortion sure doesn’t sound hateful to me.

I’m sorry, this is a fucking stupid thing to say/think in this case:

Man, people sure have a strange way of expressing their economic insecurity.

Then again, he also pulled this shit:

“Bush doesn’t care about black people.” -Kanye West, 2005.

She’s a decent enough stand in for the class of liberals who were motivated less by wanting to accomplish anything in particular this election, and more about the abstract idea of revolution and/or a singular visceral hatred of Hillary Clinton.

This shirt never happened. It’s photoshopped it originally said “stop being desperate”

Pedantic Spanish-language edit: What Trumpistas want to have are “cojones.”

Megyn Kelly is literally using the same misguided strawman reasoning as this Onion Article.

His grandfather, father and son ALL service members.

Yes, EVERYONE should be upset about the Press going around asking people who they voted for.

This smug bullshit is why these two potential Democrat voters won’t vote for us! Stop shaming them!

Despite the overwhelming narrative, Trump voters skewed rich, not poor. And the biggest demographic that voted for him wasn’t poor people or people in stagnating areas, it was white people.

Weisman, who quit Twitter at one point during the campaign after being subjected to a flood of anti-Semitic abuse, thinks that the answer to Trumpism is to build an opposition that accommodates the concerns of racists and anti-Semites.

They were tarred as dumb racist idiots who were voting against their interests when they voiced their displeasure.

“But... but, muh feelings!”

Well then, you can rest easy; the quote is by C.S. Lewis, not Lewis Carroll.

Ok, I will call you ridiculous. Feelings aren’t absorbed by dirt and rock, or even man-made structures. And plenty of death has occurred on damn near every square inch of habitable land on this planet.
