Trump, OTOH, is a scrupulous truth-teller and well known for his ascetic lifestyle.

It's not free from criticism, but its adherents should be free from persecution. Islamophobe is a perfectly reasonable way to describe people who are literally irrationally afraid of Muslims.

Actually yeah, on questions of real substance neither of them are really getting dragged appropriately, because the media is lazy as shit. But I think she cops it more over trivia like whether or not she's sick or drinking enough water than Trump does over, say, multiple rape accusations.

I actually don't really disagree with this but please don't call me brosef.

Trump hasn't done bad things?

I actually really, really dislike Clinton, but I can't for a second entertain the notion that Trump isn't manifestly worse.

If you don't want to be called deplorable don't vote for a white supremacist conman.

My god, the idea that Clinton is the one getting softballed by the press in this election is actually fucking delusional.

She seems fairly smart, and if she was willing to say anything critical about the outfit at all, which she was, I'm willing to bet she was downplaying how she felt about it.

Indeed! I was referring to the set-up in the US though, where you have two market conservative parties, one of which (the Democratic Party) happens to no longer be openly bigoted.

This is a fine post, and I appreciate the nuance. I was being facetious about a guy who literally said, "There is no argument here," so honestly please forgive my own lack of nuance.

You're excused.

If I could post a gif here it would be one of someone doing an extremely exaggerated jack-off motion.

I don't have anything to add, I just want to second your annoyance at this. Reboot seems to have become an umbrella term covering sequels, remakes, and actual reboots and it's maddeningly imprecise.

Might've been at a lock-in.

"I regret being born dead, and I regret seeing The Babadook! It was SO scary you guys!"
and later
"I reiterate…do NOT see The Babadook!"

mmm, tonkatsu

Eh, for that to make sense you'd need a market-friendly conservative party and a social democratic party instead of two market-friendly conservative parties, one of which isn't openly bigoted.

It's funny, cause in Australia the colour associations are the exact opposite - red signifies the somewhat left-leaning and formerly avowedly socialist Labor Party, while blue, with its connotations of royalty and mother England, signifies the more conservative coalition between the Liberal and National parties…

Sorry I was kind of a dick about it, I'm having a weird morning.
