Your anti-nail (and anti-getting-my-esophagus-slashed) agenda is repulsive and hypocritical. So much for the tolerant left!

“Apolitical” is itself a politics. A politics of status quo enhancement. By being brainwashed into not ever bringing up politics anywhere, anytime, this allows the elites and established powers to dictate your life to you. We’ve seen how well that works: modern history is a succession of one catastrophe after the

What’s that you say, somebody who spins the loss of a lucrative deal with the world’s biggest media conglomerate into “regaining independence” is a massive effing troll? WHY I NEVER

Losing a lucrative deal with the world’s biggest media conglomerate is “regaining independence?”

Yeah, Jafari only walked to preempt getting booted from Game Grumps.

Some foreign power did not invade our country and install this person as president.

Bwahaha, and how did Trump’s vaunted investments in failed casinos, failed steaks, failed everything “do more” for the US than Tiger Woods and, say, his endorsement deals praising American products?

The best part is that while neo-fascists everywhere rant about Sharia law and Islamic theocracies, one of Geert Wilder’s pillars of policy is to explicitly demolish the separation between church and state.

Twitter is such a joke. For every Milo there’s another hate preacher like Carl Benjamin (aka “Sargon of Akkad”) who gets reinstated. Their enforcement of community standards is a farce.

Agree with a lot of points, including the overall one that branding is a powerful force in the US (just look at the various anti-freedom “Freedom [X]” orgs), but come on, your argument ACA was hurt by its name and the JINGOIST Act pushed through because of it is really crankish. (Not to mention “academic ivory tower”

I really wish I could share your optimism, but if you look at America’s track record dealing with traitors, you’ll see they won’t get the well-deserved chair. Reagan conspired with the Iranians to prolong the hostage crisis, then sold rockets to them in order to fund South American fascist death squads.

To save humanity to be wiped out by climate change and spead up the transition to electric cars? Fuck yeah.

Except that tobacco is a drug and makes you addicted. Addiction overrides rational thinking, the very thing that makes us behave like adults.
