Obama had a four years to act before Russia created the current situation. He failed to do so.

It takes a profound ignorance to not see the United States as an equally guilty party in this proxy war on behalf of Saudi Arabia and American interests. They have been arming and funding terrorists in Syria for years now (same old story, they’ve done that before). They’ve blown up hospitals and killed ridiculous…

In retrospect I maybe agree. But at the time I think it was the best decision with the information available. Nobody guessed the Iraqi army would get rolled like that.

No one else remembers when it was cool that Obama made fun of Romney for saying Russia was a threat during their foreign policy debate? Because that absolutely happened, and then a bunch of us made Cold War jokes about Romney. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA so funny now.

We aren’t particularly good at picking the good ones.

How is this a “true genocide”? I honestly want to know. It’s a mass slaughter and an atrocity, sure, but is it genocide?

I agree. It is a lot of style over substance stuff (hey look where that got us!!!) and his infuriating need to have everyone like him. His lack of backbone in his second term has been tragic, and Syria is the worst of it. A lot of it is the utterly recalcitrant Republican assholes in congress, but he bears some of the…

thank you. I felt lately here I’ve been taking crazy pills. So many people here are acting like: why do we get Trump after Obama cured cancer, walked on water, and was friends with Beyonce; it often renders me speechless.

What exactly would you have Donald Trump do?? He’s not yet president and won’t be for weeks. You could have just as easily made the point that President Obama played golf with Timberlake while Syria burns.

Fuck off. You aren’t laying this shit at my door.

The people in Aleppo are surrounded. They have been since before we accepted any Syrian refugees. I’m not exactly sure how racist white people kept them encircled by Assad and Russia forces.

A Clinton victory would not have saved those in Aleppo. The ongoing massacre was already in motion well before November 8. And refugees are generally accepted from refugee camps in Turkey and Jordan, not helicoptered out of besieged cities. But yes, the US at least should definitely have accepted many more than the…

... implicitly framing the next administration as one that may be friendlier toward the cause of mass murder—the mass murder that fed a refugee crisis that bolstered the global far-right resurgence that got Donald Trump elected.

It looks like Fallujah all over again.

So happy to see Lithgow nominated for The Crown. He is just mesmerizing as Chruchill. I completely forget that he is American.

Who?

Zayn’s The Weeknd impression is excellent.

This took a week to write.

Yeah, if you want them to build character, give them some responsibility and don’t go overboard with the gifts, but trying to indoctrinate them with your depression/angst/etc seems like a shit plan.

So, the Panthers weren’t even playing and Cam still gets blamed?
