Republican (leadership) philosophy in a nutshell:

Isn’t this the plot of the movie ‘Elysium’? The wealthiest people on Earth, unable to maintain ‘their way of life’ (the planet become so uninhabitable that no amount of money could gate off the rich from the rest of us or save them from a collapsed global ecosystem), so they built an orbital station with all the…
It seems to me that you have whole generations of people worldwide that have been conditioned over the last 40+ years to react negatively and sometimes violently to the mere suggestion of admitting the sins of the past and trying to make amends going forward. These people have been raised to believe that their actions…
neoliberals like Pelosi and the ‘old guard’ from the 90s and early 2000s are more or less in line with the GOP economic theory, which is ‘kiss the rich’s ass so they give money to keep you in office’, the difference being that the neoliberal Dems at least have a pretense of having their legislation having a morsel of…
If you think of the balance of power as actual scales, then the neoliberal dems almost always start at the center-left of the scales, and invariably make bipartisan offers from that position TO START. The right then has the advantage of demanding the the neoliberals meet them halfway from that position, almost…
This is the kind of thing that makes me worry what he’ll do if he starts to feel the proverbial noose tighten around his neck. I wouldn’t be surprised if he announced on television a pardon for anyone who commits violence in his name against the ‘enemies of freedom’, namely liberals, brown people, college professors,…
Your reference to smallpox and plague made me worrey that Miller may actually do something to that effect, like having the detained children infected with something deadly and contagious before sending them to their home country.
I have this weird feeling SYFY is trying to capitalize on Five Nights at Freddy’s before the official movie comes out, and the Banana Splits fit the bill. That said, I wonder if the killing spree will be punctuated with a ‘one banana, two banana, three banana, four!’
Right-wing white supremacist groups In the early 90s decided to send their younger members into the military and police forces in order to get training and be in positions of power and be able to possess a veneer of respectability as they enforced their hateful ideology on those who would disagree with them.
Read 2012’s Superbia:
I’ve observed that economically, neoliberals like Pelosi and other centrists, align pretty close to the GOP, the difference being they want the same policies, just that one wants them gradually so no one notices , while the other wants them all at once, damn the suffering caused to the vast majority of Americans.
The why isn’t that hard, it’s just insecure males who want to assert their toxic masculinity by making ostensibly liberal people upset. These are the same people who pay thousands of dollars to deliberately make their vehicles spew black smoke and post a big sign on the back that says: “Hippie Repellent”.
This, in a nutshell, is the problem with neoliberal Democrats, aka the Establishment Democrats. They are willing to sacrifice any and all principles and sense of human decency for the mere appearance of stability and fair-mindedness, like offering diet Coke to someone who will take Coke Classic every time when they…
Once again, the writers of the comic Calexit prove to be eerily prophetic.
If I were to overhaul the American voting system, I’d have the following federal standards:
Aren’t bishops Catholic? The article says the guy is a bishop.
this is the sexual harassment trifecta of celebrity assault, Catholic Church abuse, and male privilege with that excuse.

If only I had a box with a lock big enough to hold the mech and a certain magic key...
Business-friendly, socially liberal Democrats, aka neo-liberals aka Clintonites, are moderate Republicans in all but in name. If you were to place the political parties alignment from Clinton onward on a spectrum, you’d have Bernie Sanders on the far left, with a few others that have come and gone like Barney Frank…
