“your ignorance of the legal mechanisms at the president’s disposal to punish those responsible for massive and publically catastrophic fraud and, in so doing, send a strong message to a venal and corrupt industry is, I guess, your own problem”

I’ll be sure to send Barack Obama a letter on your behalf to let him know how he failed to meet your expectations of how a fantasy President should govern. Of course, he’s probably gonna ask “Who the fuck is Angus?”, so feel free to reply with a list of all your amazing accomplishments that prove what a better liberal…

Suddenly you are against capitalism? It would be ridiculous for the first black president not to take the spoils of the office as all former presidents enjoy. That line about Obama taking money for speaking to Wall Street is whining pure and simple.

Hi everyone, let me take a moment to explain all the ways Barack Obama is a sellout corporate whore and how if I were President everything would be way better.

“The most effective liberal politician in a generation and the first President to implement critical reforms to our broken healthcare system in half a century did not live up to my unreasonable expectations.”

In the context of the article, the purpose of that quote isn’t really “Obama was so great.” It’s “this Republican bill is a shitastic disaster,” which, make no mistake, it is. More people will die if it passes.

There is a practical limit to what can be achieved with Republican control of all three branches of…

I can’t speak for all left-leaning Americans, but the general sense I get is that Obamacare was mostly a mediocre substitute for the single-payer plan that we wanted. On a day-to-day basis or in terms of routine care, I have no problem believing that it isn’t a huge improvement. We need to bring down out of control…

Obviously, ACA has problems, but—the main issue the guy talks about in the thread seems to boil down to “Texas didn’t vote for Medicaid expansion.” And the reason they didn’t vote for Medicaid expansion? Because most of the people in the state voted for Republican politicians who declined to expand it (and were likely…

Okay, but you realize mediocre men have been working since the dawn of time — and in industries where only men were allowed to work — and this concern trolling was never applied to them, right? There’s literally no other way to diversify recruitment pools but to accept that the logical outcome will mean attracting and…

If we’re not careful there might be as many minorities, women and trannies in comics as there are in real life!

I’ve got plenty of issues with liberals, even as I am one, but on this there is no parity with conservatives. Loudly proclaiming “shut up and quit rocking the boat,” then proceeding to bitch on and on about people rocking the boat is, almost by temperamental definition, a conservative trait.

Marvel has always preached diversity and inclusiveness. Ever read X-Men or Captain America? There’s some subtext in those comics about how thinking people are inferior because of their race, sex, or sexuality is bad. It’s real subtle, but if you look hard enough maybe you’ll see it.

hiring women isn’t a problem tbh, as long as they can produce quality content

All you morons always starting your replies with “lol”.

Here’s my reply:

Sure. You can do whatever the hell you want with art on your end. I certainly have relationships with lots of works that are very different from what their creators intended. What you don’t get to do is browbeat artists into making the kind of art you want. You get to decide if you want it when it’s done. You don’t…

Huh. I like all these people.

The theory was that he will warg into the body of the guy who gets captured by the children of the forest and turned into the Night’s King, and at that point he’d be trapped in a white walker body. Since from the Hodor incident, we know that he can warg into bodies in the past, though that’s still a little different…

“Someone Great” is a pretty obvious choice for best song.

I used to think that too. But I was wrong.
