I mean, it’s not like Ben Garrison could draw something that isn’t true, right?

Boo downvote

Well, this got me all hot and bothered for nothing, or visa versa. Shameful!

 Never catch Gizmodo falling for that one

He’s bringing his narrative to... syntax?

You’re playing kinda fast andlose with the word “conspiracy” here, bud. Those historical examples are some serious reaching

Mostly just racist?

Way to prove his point

Still closer to 25%, and overwhelmingly people who work for a living and have no wealth to expropriate anyway.

It’s actually just 12.1% of Americans who make over $100,000.

I think you’ve oversimplified well beyond the point of making sense here. “Fiscal Liberal vs. Fiscal Conservative” refers to a very specific debate over countercyclical spending from the ‘90s and early ‘00s that doesn’t really reflect any considered ideology, least of all liberalism or conservatism.

I actually love paying taxes. It’s an investment that I get huge returns on, and if intelligent, progressive people are in power, I see those returns in a matter of months, not years.

You didn’t think the characters mirrored each other? That was almost heavy-handedly the entire plot. That was the story for which the female antagonist was merely a vehicle.

Geesus. What “narrative?” Also, do you, like, not know what hospitals are?

Likewise, plenty of people use opioids without ever going anywhere near a needle. Whether your vices catch up with you is a matter of money and luck. This woman had neither. That isn’t her fault.

I take it you’ve never met a smoker OR a junkie, then. Tumors and needles sneak up on people with habits that were, at one point, totally manageable. We don’t talk about how people in car crashes CHOSE to drive, but they definitely did. Do they not deserve help? Should they be left in the mangled wrecks to die as a…

He didn’t say, and to me it didn’t super sound like he cares. The only issue is how it affects HIM.
