Please feel free to look up which party’s candidates the police unions tend to overwhelming endorse.

I would make you a $1000 bet right now that, aside from accidents or what will most likely be individual officers overreacting unlawfully (both of which will result in appropriate condemnation and prosecution, if warranted), that there will be no organized, targeted, intentional killings of protesters by police in…

No one likes to talk about the trickle up costs of this. As a business owner, if I have to pay a McDonalds worker $15/ hour, those costs need to be borne somewhere. Its either through automation (ordering kiosks to eliminate headcount) or increased product price. Who eats at McDonalds primarily? People making…

The $15 minimum wage idea is nice-sounding, but fraught with peril. It will escalate the drive for large corporations to automate and eliminate labor. Smaller businesses will go away in large numbers, and what will be unseen is the number of small businesses that will never open going forward.

So, you and the rest of the writers at Kinja have that in common with Trump.

“which would have been fine, we can laugh at ourselves”

Geez. We make fun of Trump for his thin skin but maybe we should, like, never do that again if a single joke at Democrats’ expense is going to generate 20 think pieces. Has the petition to have Jost fired and his fields sowed with salt been posted?

the 37different genders is not why dems lost. It’s this reaction in this exact post why the dems lost the election. It was a fucking joke.

No, every good liberal knows there are 43. fucking oppressive shitlords at tinder

it was a good joke

As opposed to everybody else in Hollywood whose dating someone half their age?

Good god, I’m not a fucking scientist. Google images gives me coal power plant search results. I copy. I paste. I don’t think twice. Thank you internet for never letting anyone forget. Honest mistake. I say we go nuclear!

Your five year old is your kid, not your drinking buddy teddy bear.

Agreed, but protesting democracy kind of defeats the purpose of democracy, don’t you think?

There is no need to protest democracy just because your candidate lost. That is a childish idea embraced by hyper-emotional fools. Not acting like an adolescent is by definition the adult thing to do. You did the right thing.

Your five year old is not interested in politics. This is the kind of thing that destroys childhood. Stop it.

You and your four year old seem to have the same comprehension level. No offense, of course.

Then stop letting your 4-year old watch the news and play a game with him, or have him go play outside, or do ANYTHING BUT WATCH THE NEWS...

Where do 4yo children watch the news? At home. They don’t choose to watch the news... it’s turned on for them.

This is the best analysis I’ve read of what makes millions of Americans despise organizations like the NYT. They read pieces like that one about the Midwest that you linked and rightfully resent the shit out of it.
