I don’t know who told you that, but cross-contamination is absolutely a concern for people with celiac. It’s also worth noting that ingesting gluten at very low levels may not cause immediate physical discomfort, but still can cause accumulative damage.

Stop replying to the asshole at the top of the post. The more you reply, the more likely his comment will stay there.

You’re right. That opinion is unpopular.

Confession time. I’m a Washington Post and Slate troll, but not that kind. I look at it like this: these guys don’t care and/or don’t want to hear facts, figures, arguments, etc. There’s no mind changing. So I have a little fun instead.

Jesus, did you just intentionally pair those two sentences?

Nobody alive today has a grandparent who was a slave.

The thing is, society hasn’t moved on. Yes, slavery itself ended a long time ago, but efforts to keep blacks as second-class citizens certainly did not, both directly (e.g. Jim Crow laws) and indirectly (e.g. policies that conveniently disproportionately impact the black community). Until the latter is finally…

I’m getting really, really confused about the whole confederacy and kkk are Democrats line of thought.

The media is 100 percent to blame here.

So the right way to approach accusations from minorities is simply assume they are lying to advance some cause rather than admit this shit happens all the time, and until the police determine otherwise, there’s a good chance someone called him a f*g and punched him in the face? “Some anonymous police source from the…

So this guy fakes his assault, and your response is to lecture progressives on being more skeptical of victims alleging crimes? You've got to be fucking kidding me. Weinstein, Cosby, Spacey, Nassar, no fakers found there. I think you need to get off your high horse and understand that the exception does not make the…

Victims’ accusations must be treated seriously and investigated to fullest extent, but accusations should never be automatically believed.

Actually, it’s kind of the exact opposite--this shows how very difficult it is to convincingly fake an attack, and how easily the stories of people lying about being assaulted crumble under investigation. Nobody is sincerely equating “believe victims” with “don’t investigate crimes”; that’s a straw man used by rape…

It really seems like it shouldn’t be hard to argue that you can treat potential victims with respect and still verify what they say is accurate.

“Believing the victim” means exactly what you just said: a crime has been reported, we will investigate it fully because we believe a crime has been committed, and we need to get to the bottom of it.” As facts emerge, sometimes, so does skepticism, but if you first reaction is to say, “well, he might have been making…

You realize that that “blindly stupid two-step method” is basically now how every consultant in politics gets paid, right?

There is not a shell company.  There is a PAC with actual operations and an LLC with actual operations.  And nothing was concealed...you’ll recall that Thompson’s “discovery” was done by looking at public information.  Anyone can see that AOC’s campaign made multiple payments to BNC LLC, and anyone can see that BNC…

Well researched?
