She’s giving the advice of a person who’s had partner’s that she’s wanted to impress by showing that she can care as little about them as they showed they cared about her.

“Last off, his wife probably told him to stop hanging out with you, duh. Which means you are attractive”

Booker is pushing this because Big Pharma wants to be in the marijuana business. This is the same man who voted against cheaper drug prices just a few months ago; they own him. Booker wakes up every morning wondering how he can be the next corporate Democrat to thoroughly alienate his base and lose to Trump in a…

Alternatively “Why not to alienate portions of the country that are not dense city communities.”

They could push for Medicare for All and accept nothing less. An affirmative policy position that would help Americans and definitely isn’t just “not Trump”.

The whole argument Libby is making here is for obstructionism/opposition based on this specific issue, not based on vague “not Trump” resistance.

And you’re a 20%er insulated from your own horrible politics

It’s the only way to differentiate yourself from the billion other racially ambiguous manic pixie dreampop BandCamp girls who all sound EXACTLY the same.

“Shut Up Bernie Bro!” is not the best way to handle criticism. And that is what the Hillary people did. I say this as a Hillary supporter. 

I’m more informed than the fucking “the message is being worked on” Democrats.

It’s not the platform. Most people don’t pay any attention to the platform (which was substantially progressive.) It’s the candidate. ALWAYS. I don’t mean to say that platform and ideas don’t matter. They do, but a shitty candidate can only do so much with a great platform. Hillary was a bad candidate for a number of…

Before I even read any of the comments.

Unsourced? Other than the NY Times article that this story links to you mean?

Obama didn’t win because of the Democratic Party infrastructure, he won in spite of it because he was a dynamic candidate and his election wasn’t a ringing endorsement of neoliberal centrist positions, it was a recognition of that dynamism.

No, the problem is the Democratic establishment is a bunch of morons. If the Clinton team couldn’t tell they might just possibly have an issue in Wisconsin when they ignored the state for the entirety of the general campaign, or Michigan, when Debbie Dingell was all but screaming to the DNC that things were going…

He didn’t say you can’t have different opinions on various issues anywhere in this piece. Read it again.

There have been multiple, independent accounts saying “there was no wrongdoing”. There’s video evidence. Implying the contrary is just wrong at this point. Thank god for Demario there were eyewitnesses and video evidence, this was character assassination and false accusation of a crime. The callousness of this…

She is a Jenner, not a Kardashian. And she exploits the features (and sometimes literal skin color) of other races/ethnicities with plastic surgery that would otherwise be seen as lesser on their original bodies. I think when you start straying into oddly exploitative territory with the voluntary changes you make to…

I keep seeing this “Well, if she treats her well...” comment about the housekeeper by folks who don’t seem to understand in the last power imbalances. You think the housekeeper is going to be like “No, I don’t feel like doing this.”? Really? And you think if she did Kylie wouldn’t be looking for another housekeeper?

No she didn’t. What a load of horseshit.
