A nuanced, intelligent, fact-based comment. Thank you Renard.

At least Gawker had charm. Splinter is like hanging out with the freshman who thinks their poly sci lecture is a dialogue. 

“just fine. she’s alright” doesnt even hit paul blest’s purity test. it doesnt give an option, other than “not voting” because they dont want to vote for “literally not a snake demon” or “snake demons.”

these people are fucking stupid children.

Sure but I don't think getting all of your readers to say "you're wrong" is a perfect long term strategy. 

Barack Obama was dealt the worst hand of any president in history. And what did he do with it? He turned it into f*cking aces.

Excellent point.  I believe that is why Obama is putting his energies into rallying the vote.  It is a message that needs to be heard every election. 

Fuck. And we all fell for it.

49% of millennials voted in the 2016 election. If they’d gotten off their indifferent asses and voted, these other threats wouldn’t fucking be there.

No, you feel that I’m wrong. If you thought I was wrong you have arguments, evidence, etc.

That is what got us in this situation in the first place: inaction in voting and the idea of the perfect candidate. Do I agree that the Dems need better candidates? Yes. Does there need to be a critical discussion about who the Dems are putting up? Absolutely. Was Obama’s speech the place for the argument? No. People…

Comments like this are why I love Splinter.

LOL.....

It’s getting fucking ridiculous. I don’t need this site to be HuffPost or Vox or something...but come on. This is stupid at this point. 

So true. You know you fucked up when every single comment is in disagreement with your blog post.

Me: “Let’s see what going on on Splinter.”

No, he gets it.  Excessive hard-left partisanship threatens to alienate non-urban voters that the Dems need to actually regain power.

I think you’re missing his point which is:

I’m sorry, but the list of political dynamics and issues where Obama needs an explainer from Libby Watson is exceedingly short.

Aside from him saying that sexual harassment wasn’t a deal breaker to be on the SCOTUS, Biden and his willingness to let Thomas be passed to a full confirmation vote in the spirit of ‘bipartisanship’ and the hope that the GOP would reciprocate such behavior in the future, is a prime example of why Democrats have…
