I didnt see where she called Omar a bigot, she called her tweet an anti-semitic trope. Pelosi challenged the idea, where you are challenging Pelosi’s character, which is becoming all too frequent. Calling Pelosi a racist is a slur, not an argument, and its lazy. But I suspect we are just gonna have to agree to disagree

She hasnt been silenced, nor has she been deplatformed. Her twitter is still up and running, she can say whatever she likes. No doubt she’ll weather the storm and be just fine. Relax dude

And I’d say that, instead of rushing to call literally everyone you disagree with a racist, consider what Rep Omar said:

So you are now calling Speaker Pelosi a racist, instead of simply calling her an establishment shill who sold her soul and wants to consolidate her power by smashing the progressive uprising. Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds? Its absurd to anybody outside the Splinter echo chamber...

Average price for a single family home in Denver topped $500,000 last year, and I believe starting teacher’s salary for DPS is a hair under 50K. The suburbs provide very little relief in terms of housing costs, unless you head all the way to Greeley or the Springs. Nobody goes into teaching to get rich, but if your job

Performative wokeness is part and parcel to Blest’s posts, though, and if he has to curb that impulse, its gonna put a serious dent in his journalistic output. And while he’s gathering logs so he can burn Northam at the stake, Virginia’s voters—white, black, Democrat, Republican— are left wondering who his replacement

Sorry, but I do...

Bezos’ Medium post is worth a read, but the real “meat and potatoes” of this thing—pardon the pun— are AMI’s descriptions of their cache of compromising photos. Without any further adieu:

Bezos is hardly a sympathetic figure, but he raised a good point in his blog post: How many people have been blackmailed by AMI and, lacking the financial resources to fight it, have given them what they demand? We all knew they were quacks and Trump sycophants, I didnt realize they were literally willing to use

You are whats called a “useful idiot.” And not just in the Stalinist sense of the word, I mean you are a dipshit. AOC’s bill overview--not the GND itself, admittedly, but the overview released by her office-- calls for “economic support for those unable or UNWILLING to work.” Please defend that piece of socialist

The filibuster will spell the end of the world?!?!? It’s a procedure used by both parties, it’s not an intergalactic meteor headed for Earth...

I’d just like to take a moment and acknowledge your absolutely perfect handle. Well played, sir

Not bitter, just jaded man. And I think that promising things to people that the government has no realistic hope of providing is the height of naivety, as well as poor policy. Look at whats being discussed:

And you’re so scared of personal responsibility you’ve adopted a completely unrealistic policy position. Nobody is ever going to get their food or housing provided by the gov’t. Deep down, you know this. But again, keep demanding it. Watching an entitled brat throw a temper tantrum is cathartic for working stiffs like

Still wrong, though your childish idealism is cute. Our Bill of Rights, a document full of a lot more wisdom than you possess, guarantees your right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. You are owed nothing more, and you owe nobody else anything more.

You are a fucking moron. “Work ethic” isnt uniquely Protestant, or capitalist, for that matter. We work to shape our world. Every civilization has done it

Except that its not a strawman. Its in the overview notes released by AOC’s office. Per CNBC:

Good luck getting anybody to touch this with a ten foot pole. As you predicted, however, Fox News is creaming their jeans over it, though apparently its a bit convoluted. From CNBC:

I’m not trying to stifle it. Have any conversation you like. Blest stated that Kaine’s response was not a good answer. I think he’s making a big deal about nothing, and I’m willing to grant Kaine knows racism exists in Overland Park. Further, I can forgive Kaine for not wanting to tackle racism right now, as there’s

Uh, perhaps it escaped your attention, but this entire thread is about Tim Kaine and his response to a question about blackface, and the underlying, unstated question, was his response adequate? Put another way, should he get a pass for his answer? Everybody else understands that, and yes, its absolutely the point of
