Why is the Venezuela argument dumb? The American left was trumpeting the VZ story when Oil was $120 a barrel and Chavez hadn’t yet figured out how to siphon off the entirety of the profits into his own bank accounts. Chavez shows the US a new way! Socialism for the win! The thing is, he did, and went about…

Funny because that op-ed expresses the same sentiment that Hamilton Nolan regularly displays, and all the little hangers on here echo constantly, which is RULING CLASS BAD, IGNORANT FUCKS GOOD.  The horseshoe theory of politics is proven correct once again

the best part is that the nominee will probably be an elderly white male, meaning that the entire 29 people that read splinter news regularly will sit out the general election because people must be judged by the color of their skin, not the content of their character.

I mean i’m happy there wasn’t a bigotry driven attack on an innocent gay black man, arent you? shouldnt everyone be happy that this was fake? Or is it better in your worldview that he actually got beat up by maga hat wearing white supremacists?

Maybe he should stop being a fucking criminal and blaming it on immigration laws.  No officer!  Yes, I mean, I did rob a bank, but it’s ok because i’m also an illegal alien! </liberallogic>

You represent poor Americans by committing crime and making shitty music?  This truly is the land of opportunity!

Evidence be damned!  believe whomever higher up on the victimization pyramid!

I mean even if it wasn’t, it’s really his fault, isn’t it </splinternews>

Holy shit, you’ve cracked the code: a certain kind of person is much more vested in poking the eye of their culture war opponents than they are improving the plight of marginalized groups, because that’s hard, and spiking the football is easy. The snarky style of sites like this or the loathesome Splinter are the…

Yes, definitely probably mistook a nigerian dude yelling at him for a MAGA redneck.  i mean it’s the best fit for the narrative you would like to promote so it must be true

Oh, you mean like everyone on this site did about the Covington kids?  I guess you have to have a certain level of intersection victimization credibility to be allowed to spike the football.  And you wonder why nobody takes you seriously, and are skeptical every time you scream “hate crime” with spit flying out of…

every day black and queer folk are getting mugged by maga hat wearing assailants?  you would think that would make news.  Is this happening anywhere besides your own head?  Perhaps you can show us the 49 instances of that happening so far in 2019.   You know what, I’ll settle for a single instance.  Go on, i’ll wait…

I mean nobody explained that the electoral college was a thing and how on earth could somebody even know what that is??? i am pretty sure that we elect presidents by twitter ratios everything else is russian bots or those guys wearing maga hats that beat up poor jussie

perfectly secure, or at least as much as is possible on a server with no firewall or security software attached to a commodity internet circuit. i bet the administrator used a really hard passphrase like “p@ssw0rd”

Oh!  A Never Trumper!   I bet that gets you lots of Attention Points at your faculty gatherings and upper east side cocktail parties!  So subversive!

dont forget her Whacky hijinks on the Goldwater campaign!  If she’s not a model liberal i dont know who is!

Yes it’s weiner’s fault that Hillary was a terrible candidate and forgot that the midwest is in the United States while running victory laps in California and New York

Kentucky is two states away from the Mexican border? Holy shit, there is an emergency at the border as the Mexicans have annexed Texas. Are all Brooklyn bloggers this bad at Geography? I know looking at a map is difficult, and you’ve never heard of anything west of Hoboken, but if you want to be taken seriously, maybe…

Is there a single recent high profile case where the usual suspects demand that we ‘believe the victim no matter what’ where the victim turned out to be an actual victim and not a lying scumbag begging for attention? 

How exactly is Amazon ‘wounded’ by this? I get it that in your socialist zeal to see the lumpen proletariat triumph over 40,000 good paying jobs that you think that somehow Amazon is hurt in all this, but I really don’t see how you connect the dots to get there.  Amazon will be just fine with or without a HQ in Long…
