This isn’t really in response to you, but I don’t want to reply to the people who are actually saying this shit, and your comment is tangentially related:

I can see both sides of this. On the one hand, the more we give these people a platform, the more we normalize their virulent rhetoric. That being said, they are controlling the country now. This is the new normal, however abnormal it may be. And we need to know their arguments in order to be vigilant, stay ahead of

I think this attitude is an extremely large part of how the alt right gained so much traction. What happened to proper debate and discourse? If we, as liberals, are so afraid of her voice being heard, and are willing to silence controversial topics then are we really striving for a fair and balanced society? or one

Wow, no. Have we learned nothing from this last election? Silencing racists and mean-spirited bigots like Lahren only feeds into their martyr complexes. I’m reminded of how many conservative speakers have been able to play the victim card after being stopped from speaking on college campuses.

I don’t know if you know this, but do you know how ridiculous you sound? What is wrong with him having her on his show to discuss and challenge her crazy ideals?

Wait, wait, wait. The Daily Show has had figures from both sides of the table. She’s a crazy person, yes, but why are we upset by her appearing on a talk show that discusses politics from all “walks”.

Nope, he came forward after the pic went viral. The guy manages a sign shop there, had slow day last Friday so he made up that sign and went down to the local mosque. According to him, he’s a devout Presbyterian, and letting his fellow citizens know they are loved and welcome was a good deed that he felt was required

This story makes no sense for so many different reasons, but for the record, I’m totally cool with peeing nearly anywhere. I personally pee in my bathroom’s second sink. Every time. Wake up in the middle of the night with a boner: pee in the sink. Easier to aim, obviously. Wake up in the middle of the night without a

The NBA is the most progressive men’s sports league in America. It’s great to see the standard they set for other leagues to completely fail at.

I dunno. The attitude just kinda slowly changed over time. I started to see the effects of my opinions on other people besides just the older white guys I used to hang around. As my life became better, I started becoming more charitable and understanding of people in different situations. Fighting depression, I

Mayweather might still be the biggest piece of shit in this photo but at least he’s also the only one who’s good at his job.

Nice that Trump’s transition team hasn’t had a chance to speak to anyone at State, Justice, or DoD, but he has time for Mayweather. Clearly a man focused on the task at hand.

“I’m a Democrat because I think that not only does society have a moral imperative to support its most vulnerable, but I realize that it is in our best interests—socially and financially—to do so thoughtfully and responsibly.”

For irrational reasons, I fucking LOATHE Lebron, but the dude has answered every single one of his critics, firehosed their hot takes, managed his career impeccably, avoided any off-the-court scandal, and seems like a genuine good guy to his family, his friends, and his community. I imagine that once he’s retired and

It’s literally the belief that only the republican party stands for these things. As a prior republican, I was led to believe the democrats just wanted to take all our tax money and give it to people who didn’t want to work (Personal responsibility)and Democrats wanted to dictate every aspect of our lives (Individual

Hi, I can help with this:

Nah. Just say those reasons are why you’re a Democrat. And maybe throw in “Also, I don’t think that poor people are poor because they’re lazy”.
