I’ve noticed that when people are confronted with something they don’t understand or are intimidated by, they’ll often focus on some relatively minor or unimportant aspect of it and talk about that. I do not believe that Biden has any real ideas about how to tackle police brutality, extrajudicial killings, and…

You just don’t get it. We support women by supporting women who are going to spend the next 40 years on the Court disenfranchising women. It takes some next-level mental gymnastics to get there, but it’s totally empowering.

Incentivizing child smuggling and trafficking, huh? I guess that would look something like this:

Biden: “What I say is that there is no excuse whatsoever for the looting and the violence.”

My skincare routine is body wash soap during my shower. I might specifically wash my face. I don’t always. I think the best thing I ever did was stop wearing makeup. I save a bunch of time and also my skin is so much happier. I know some people have to deal with real skin issues, but I honestly think most people are…

I’m climbing onto my little soap box real fast to point out that “white trash” is racist. It implies that trash people are all non-white as a standard setting, and that the “whiteness” of this trash person makes their trashiness somehow unique and different than standard trash.

From what I read: Emily Ratajkowski is stating that she is going to wait until her child is 18 (or ‘old enough’) to determine who they are, whereas Joan is pointing out (in what some apparently feel was in some aggressive language) that the child will likely know their identity at an early age.

I don’t see how you can say what you’re saying after reading this:

YOU MUST NEVER WATCH THE BORAT MOVIE!!!!!!! HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE BORAT MOVIE? I READ A REVIEW AND THEY SAID IT WAS FUNNY SO I WENT TO THE THEATRE. IS THIS WHAT I LEFT KOREA FOR? IS THIS WHAT AMERICA IS? IS THIS WHAT YOUNG PEOPLE LAUGH AT? IS THIS WHAT I SACRIFICED DECADES OF MY LIFE FOR, TO GIVE YOU AN EDUCATION IN A…

“If you get rid of slavery, then all the slaves will starve!”

“Regulatory suicide” is the type of dipshit catchphrase college libertarians try to use as a debate gotcha.

Sounds like the same logic people use to argue for elimination of the minimum wage. “We’ll have many more low-wage jobs that don’t pay enough to cover your bills!”

The fact that U/L’s business model is fundamentally unsustainable is not a particularly compelling argument for allowing them to exploit their workers to help make up the difference.

Where “regulatory suicide” = actually enforcing existing labor law, instead of letting techbros abuse loopholes in the law to reduce labor costs.

“I visited a neighboring country for a year and have a small sample size of acquaintances who come from Bolivia, so that makes me an expert on daily life and politics in Bolivia. I can speak for the Bolivian people.”

Real sources on this that I can read? I can find all sorts of documentation of human rights abuses during the right-wing coup against Morales.

You aren’t a staunch progressive my guy.

I want you to know that I love you and you are the single most important person in my life right now. Thank you. 

I mean, he’s definitely not smart. He’s only rich cause dad was rich, and if out current crop of rich old people proves anything, it’s that once you have money you can be a colossal moron and still be rich.
