I’m curious what your definition of sport is? Because sport is literally defined as a competition that requires physical strength and skill...... Both of which you now acknowledge are required for equestrian events. So, involves physical activity/strength? Check. Involves physical skill? Check. Involves competition as…
It takes an incredible amount of strength and fitness to ride at that level. It is most definitely a sport and you would agree if someone put you on an Olympic dressage horse.... Well, you’d agree from your hospital bed because for reals, those horses are Ferraris and if you don’t know what you’re doing you WILL get…
Billy really is doing God’s work. #MakeAmericaBrannigan
Look, I get it. People don’t like the horse dancing. And the dressage portion is the most boring of the Eventing discipline. Just - it’s hard, okay? It looks easy because they’re pros on well trained animals. Take it up with the IOC.
Actually, that’s classical dressage. You don’t see a group event in the Olympics because it would be shockingly expensive, and the best riders don’t want to ditch individual glory for a team event. But these moves happen at the Spanish Riding School in Austria, and all across Spain and Latin America. So, kind of in…
You know, I think most old men have absolutely god-awful personalities because they were shaped and rewarded by such a deeply misogynistic culture which both glorified and infantilized men (in the sense that they were allowed to believe the world revolves around them and other beings were innately less important and…
I LOL’d at your poorly worded statistic, not the class issue you seem to be hung up on. It is incorrect to say he captured every demographic below 35. It IS correct to say he captured the broader demographic of those below 35. If you break the “Under 35" demographic up into smaller sub-demographics, you’ll see that he…
LOL in that very article you linked, it says that Bernie had trouble getting POCs...of all age groups.
That post is based on entrance polls in Iowa with additions from SC, NH, and Nevada...it’s not national in the least.
Brocialism Puts Class over Race and Gender
Remember Susan Sarandan’s statement? She said that she would vote for Trump over Clinton because it would hasten the revolution, presumably by making life so terrible for so many people (although not her, of course) that violent uprising would be the only recourse (although she wouldn’t have to be involved with any of…
Absolutely. And if I had a choice between banking on a voting block of young people (who historically turn out for the general election at extremely low rates) or a block of older African-American women (who historically turn out at amazingly high rates), I know which block I’d be more confident in.
Um ... okay.
There’s this thing called “internalized sexism”.
“If they didn’t want Trump to win, they should have let Bernie have the nomination,”
It’s more than that.
Love or Hate her, but Hillary supporters turned out to vote more so than the very much more vocal Bernie supporters. Even if he did win the primaries and thus the nomination, he might not have been able to beat Trump who for some reasons has an ungodly amount of supporters, it’s going to be a close election, Hillary…
“I would sooner vote for Donald Trump than I would Hillary Clinton,” said one angry young man, which suggests that he, much like his fellow protesters, doesn’t seem to care all that much about what a Trump presidency could mean for people of color, immigrants, women, and gay people.
