Oh, we absolutely agree—that was a nice breakdown of the more subtle problems at work here, I was just being reductive when I said “fuck fivethirtyeight.” The strong projections for Hillary also affected the way that liberal media covered her (which in turn dampened voter turnout). It was like she was already…

As a 50+ year old straight white American male, I concur completely. I am so sick of straight white American men. I currently live in Toronto, where the population is incredibly diverse, multicultural, & tolerant (for the most part). The American dream is still alive & well, but it moved to Canada quite awhile ago. 

I’m still pissed that after the video surfaced last year of him joking about putting a “Bill Cosby pill” in Hillary Clinton’s water before he interviewed her, that he still has his job. (And it wasn’t the first time he was completely gross towards women, he settled a sexual harassment case with a network employee in…

How is she a Democratic Presidential candidate?  If you lost a spot in the debate to her, you need to end your campaign now.

I can’t stand this woman. My severely mentally ill mother adored her. Read her books rather than seeking effective treatment. Blamed herself for her weight. This kind of woo woo blames the victims for their own problems. If only depressed people meditated! If only fat people were more spiritual! If only people…

I’d like to see a debate where the questions are written by the Jeopardy people, Alex Trebek be the moderator, and have it aired on PBS. Then we’d get real questions and no spin.

Medicare needs to cover jade vagina eggs!

She sounds just a hop and a skip from Tom Cruise and Scientology. 

I want her to go to Chernobyl.

That lead image is a Mood.

So much of the inside voice shit is becoming the outside voice in these last 4 years. White folks who challenge the racism (active or “unconscious”) of other white people hear this question with a variety of different phrasing. In fact, I dig to make them spit it out. Because making the…

He’s very....shouty...

I think this is a deeply stupid take centered again on the idea that only things that happens in “developed” nations or nations the U.S. has a vested interest in matter. A billion interesting things happen every day in this world but until our media decides that the lives of other people matter even if we don’t want…

True, but as someone who lived in Boca for a bit I’d argue that one of the reasons Florida, at least southern Florida, is shite has a lot to do with all the transplants/snowbirds from New Jersey... though I lay way more blame on the folks from Philly and Boston. Jesus, when the Pats won the Super Bowl against the…

Now, if they lose, Trump can say “what a bunch of losers...”

This is exactly what we should all be thinking. We should never take a stand on anything until we have completely ensured our complete and total victory and infallibility on every imaginable issue from every imaginable angle. Until then it’s best to let the shitheads do whatever they want while we polish our CVs.…

Frank from Delaware... ICE COLD. 

America is so fucked up that I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic or not.

Putting aside that she was asked a question and answered it honestly, if they don’t win the World Cup, she will no longer really have much of a platform to take this stand, so it kind of makes sense that she would take this stand now. 

It’s not really her fault; some idiot asked her about it. It’s not like she “chose to take this stance” by scheduling a press conference to announce she wouldn’t go. Someone interviewing her asked her a question, and she answered the question presented to her.

People keep directly asking her. What is she supposed to say?
