I know lots of people, men and women who had sex with other drunk people that they weren’t dating who did not consider it rape, much more recently than the 1990's. I know people who still don’t consider that to be rape now. In fact people were much more adamant about intoxicated persons not being able to consent, like

I’m fine.

Clearly some conversations need to be had between the two of you about what is, or isn’t consent. Please. If not for you, then the next person.

“You think your kid deserves an education? Work hard to get them one, get a second job. Why should I have to pay for your kids? Have them get a job, too.”

Yea seriously. I had never included education as part of the “free stuff” conservatives are always complaining that liberals want. I mean, free college, okay, I see where they’re coming from. But I thought we were on the same page about K-12. 

She’s out there trying to save his dumb ass. This shit is sad yo.

That’s what I always wanted someone to ask all the dipshit candidates in one of the Presidential debates. “Do you think that access to affordable, quality health care is a human right, and if not, why not.” Don’t even get into who should pay and how we will pay for it. Just leave it at whether it’s a right of all

I haven’t heard her promise a single free thing...? I’ve heard her speak about how she would like to do these things, and how there are ways to get these things done, and how broad support will be necessary to get the ball rolling, but I have never heard her promise these things to anyone. Could you please link me

Rugged individualism is hot garbage invented by rich, straight, white men to provide an origin myth for their power and success so that they don’t have to be faced with the truth that they arrived where they are by standing on the necks of people of color and women.

No, the Democrats can’t be too different from Republicans otherwise they’ll scare off all the centrists voters, which are still a thing. They should continue to water down their positions of healthcare, education, gun control and abortion so they can get back into power and...?

Or worse, explain why the country investing in the education of children is not as important as tax cuts for corporations.

I hate the myth of rugged individualism because it makes people selfish and think people who are struggling are not trying hard enough. Not everyone has the same access to resources. Some places are closed to people. Honestly, working hard does not always mean you’re going to become a “success.”

Good, make conservatives actually articulate why they believe people don’t deserve these things. Put them on the defensive for why “kids don’t deserve education” is good policy.

I do love how Kanye is so clear here with his WTF, despite silence.

The realest comment here, tbh. Props for being able to look at the big picture

‘zactly.

So, I’m going to ask probably the most important question of the night...

Man, those rendezvous with Tomi Lahren are going to be awkward when he is the star of her new ‘predatory black men’ segment. That’s saying a lot in a world were R. Kelly just dropped whatever the hell that was.

Telling his story is important. American culture is FULL of rape culture. Getting a guy or girl intoxicated before sex (rape) was seen on tv and in movies. It was generally accepted by society. Movies, tv, politics... Everything was (is) about forcing someone into sex. Now we have to UNLEARN what has been accepted for
