Sadly, as someone who graduated HS in 2006, I received the same message from my SAHM, who often talked poorly about my friends’ moms for working, like get a teaching degree so in the chance I “have to work”, I have a job that wouldn’t make me a “bad mother” (she literally said this - I also had to do it at the local…

My daughter is almost 9 and she legit thinks that women are not allowed to be president because that must be why we haven’t had one by now. I’m going to let her stay up late tonight and watch.

She also once asked me who the first black president was. I said, Barack Obama, and she said “I know he is one of them, but…

I rather support someone who voted for war based on the information at hand (not one person ever suspected that an administration would lie about the reasoning at the time) and appologizes when they realized the vote was wrong instead of some guy who voted no as a protest. It’s just everybody’s dumb luck that he was…

My issues with Bernie are fairly simple. Maybe if I were 22 I’d be able to ignore them all.

Yes.

Reform is good. Bernie’s not running on reform. He’s running on revolution.

Well, yeah. Things can and should be better, yes, but the “let the muthafucka burn” position ignores that people at every point on the economic spectrum are objectively better off now than they have ever been. I’m all for improving income equality—guaranteed basic income, for instance—but that can be accomplished…

They can feel however they’d like, but their votes count no more or less than they did two hours ago. I’m pretty much over giving a shit about the feelings of people who support Bernie Sanders, because he’s shown himself to be not a good guy with good beliefs trying to do good but a bitter, angry, selfish, and, yes,…

I always though their arguments were a little suspect.

But she’s a dishonest, self-serving politician who is mostly on the right side on most important issues, unlike Trump, and she knows how to play the game and get shit done and we live in the real world and I’d rather her than an idealist who refuses to compromise and has gotten all of two initiatives passed in his…

I wouldn’t want him to be VP. I think there are enough Sanders deadenders in the country that there’d be a very real assassination threat against Hillary if it meant a Bernie presidency.

GAAAAAAAAH WHAT THE HELL DOES “ESTABLISHMENT” EVEN MEAN?!

I know it’s hard to imagine up there in Vermont where you’ll never have a hard time winning, Bernie, but sometimes politics involves compromise. For everyone who doesn’t want President Trump, this is one of those times. Plz leave.

It’s “too late” for Bernie Sanders to win the nomination. Honestly, I always find it hilarious when a guy who has been a member of congress since 1990 gets to claim he is not part of the establishment, but an organization which gets bombed, or attacked by gun man, or whose employees have to vary their route home less…

The EU report:

All the reports i’ve read about Sweden say that, while the proportion of trafficked women to free sex workers remained the same, the total amount was greatly diminished. The conflicting reports otoh have been financed by international organizations tied to women trafficking.

I’ve always liked Hillary, so I guess it’s not surprising that I think this, but I do think she’s held to such an unfair standard. I first saw this when a friend shared it complaining about her “pandering,” but the same person gushes over Obama’s cutesy and funny videos. It seems like quite a double standard (for the…

You are complaining about drawing lines at certain ages while saying it’s ok to draw a line at twelve. How inconsistent.

THANK YOU!!! Exactly! IF you think that you, as a 15-yr-old child, were genuinely capable of making a ration, informed, and consensual choice to be in a relationship with a 25-yr-old, then the 24-yr-old groomed you well. It seems like there is a fear in identifying as a victim.

It’s telling how the woman in her mid-20ies is a homewrecker, while the poor, naive man twice her age and life experience was just an easy mark to exploit and blackmail.
