Watching the tweets and coverage from marches all over the world made me tear up this morning. It’s quite a different feeling from the despair I felt yesterday.

To be fair, we’re kind of dealing with our own political shit show in Scotland right now; about to get dragged out of the EU by a bunch of xenophobic Tories even though we didn’t vote out. I know you Americans think that you’re the centre of the universe, but I think most people don’t have enough energy to deal with…
He’s Scottish. Scotland voted to remain, and Scotland’s dismay over being dragged into Brexit may spark another independence referendum much sooner than expected.
Ah, gotcha. In other words, if this was a Russian dissident leaking classified info, the Americans would be hailing them as a humanitarian, not that the Russians would be hailing them as a humanitarian. :)
Her sentence was the longest sentence for any leaker, ever. Yes, the leak was huge, but as the NY Times points out, none of the material was classified as Top Secret.
I love my country. Did you see the comedian Janey Godley with a “Trump is a Cunt” sign outside his hotel when he stayed here? Beautiful.
Their insults are poetry at its purest.
The poop emojis, doe...
I didn’t think I could hate David Cameron more than I already did (I pretty much hate all Tories forever as a reflex action) and then he essentially dropped the world’s eggiest fart and walked away and we’re left with Theresa May just hollowly blarting ‘Brexit means Brexit’ in the hope that if she says it enough, she…
Dude, no. There are people with legitimate concerns about the future of America, let alone their safety and security, and these concerns are directly related to having this successful con-man elected. And yes, he is a con-man; he cons people into thinking he’s a successful businessman, he cons people into thinking…
People are going through the grieving process; reality for us changed overnight. Seriously, give people some space and time and don’t expect them to conform to your arbitrary demands. Jesus fucking Christ on a stick.
ACTUALLY you can be upset and also still plan to take action. Please don’t tell others how to act or feel.
Certainly not for the Russian government, but you should at least for the Russian people.
As America is not it’s leaders (remember Bush years) the Russians are not it’s leader Putin. Putin is running an autocracy there and any dissenters get arrested or leave. He’s had people killed that try to run against him.
You are not very up to speed on UK Conservatives - remember, they’re the party who has now provided two female Prime Ministers, legalised gay marriage, banned handguns, and introduced legislation to give women the vote. It’s nowhere near as socially conservative as US conservatives, and in some cases it’s to the left…
You canonized him and went with the classic Antisemitic blood libel in the same post. That is an interesting way to go.
I think you and I are in agreement; I promise I’m not saying that negative things shouldn’t be brought up. I’m saying historical context matters, and it seems far too easy/common for people to read somewhere that her efforts were part of some Machiavellian plot to promote racial eugenics and then just believe…
Can we agree that she was a somewhat flawed woman that ended up doing great things for women despite those flaws?
And the rise of these horrible fuckwits has killed some of my favorite movies for me. Now instead of thinking “wow, what a horrible-yet-fascinating time in history”, I have to lose sleep at night thinking some mouth-breathing Midwestern piece of less-than-shit thinks my children are subhuman.
TL;DR, everyone can go…
What the fuck is the point of this post?
