This is the worst kind of argumentation. You see those Johnson voters? The ones that quadrupled Stein’s turnout in those states? They weren’t leaning Clinton. If anything, they siphoned off traditionally Republican-leaning voters. They weren’t disaffected Bernie Bros.

Yup. Democrats vote for people they like; Republicans vote against people they hate. The truth is, the men and women (alike) wouldn’t have voted for Clinton in any case. Now, everyone is scrambling to say this third party vote (which is smaller than usual anyway) is bad, and third parties are bad, and the election…

3) Democrats for not putting Bernie on the ticket.

Clinton and her campaign were responsible for their own great campaigning during the primaries, and they won. Clinton and her campaign were also responsible for their own campaigning during the general.

This is an especially idiotic hot taek.

Hillary would have lost even if all 3rd party voters had voted for her. Majority of white voters voting Trump and the gutting of the of the Voting Rights Act, that probably took away votes that she could have used to swing a couple states, is the reason.

The rejection of our candidate says less about the rejection of the progressive platform and more about…

As a Cubs fan I died 5 innings ago when Maddon pulled Hendricks.

Are you sure it’s not in Chicago? It sounds like it’s in Chicago.

This game, my emotions just can’t, and I’m not even a Cubs or Indians fan

Joe Maddon, meet Grady Little.

And the Band Played On vilifies Dugas, and does so in a way that doesn’t totally feel credible. I’m glad that the record is being clarified, and that Dugas is getting his name cleared, so to speak. (I don’t think this is the first research to clarify that he could not have been “Patient Zero, but it’s good to have…

It’s difficult to understand? How is it difficult? It’s not difficult at all. This is how cops operate. They shoot people. Day in, day out, bang, bang. On the contrary, it’s VERY EASY to understand how she could die like that.

The balls come from him knowing that the protest he was attending was full of educated, and committed to the cause members of the student body who he resides among, instead of the magical violent boogeyman that is so often portrayed. His fearlessness comes from the blanket of comfort provided him by this country that…

I think they were upset tha the BLM sign was removed so it wouldn’t be seen on the show. They also state BLM Portland also meets there regularly, and are also reminding people of the historic racism of the Oregon and Portland in particular. Oregon was formed to be a “white utopia”

i mean they arent wrong that the show is like 100% white

I know it’s a story where the punchline writes itself, but I hope people will also remember that good humor punches up, not down.
