Honestly, I think providing an explanation might go a long way toward shutting up some of the, “I don’t understand what the problem is” people.

I’m a big fan of Rogerian theory in argumentative practice—the core idea being that we all agree, at some point along a line of ideas, that a given thing is important. It’s how…

Rresponses like Toobin’s have got to become the (minimum) standard by which the media operates if we are to survive this catastrophe of an administration.

Meanwhile, I’m still trying to break out of my salsa rut.

Yes.

Immeasurably.

“It gives me anxiety...”

Like...::waves:: Hi! I have anxiety! Take it from me: if you mail something, YOU DON’T EVEN NEED TO TALK TO ANYONE.

Hahaha.  I’m currently stuck in a loop arguing with a bunch of cheese dicks over there defending the asshole Millenials in that article because I called them a bunch of selfish pathetic pieces of shit.  And wouldn’t you know it, one tried to imply I was racist against POC because I wasn’t focusing on helping those who…

Did you read that NY Mag article? I wanted to fight them all. “I hate mailing stuff.”

But, but, but, you see, over at Splinter, there was a wonderful article yesterday about young (white) people who just are not inspired enough to vote.  Plus, they’d have to like fill out a form, and stand in a boring line and stuff.

I like your point, but I’d change every couple of years to every couple of weeks, unfortunately.

“but you, or anyone else, don’t get to be the arbitrator of what constitutes the validity of whether a citizen chooses to vote or not”

I was hoping it would be a thing that would take a candy and magically wrap it in peanut butter and chocolate. Like, throw a lemon Starburst in there and it spits out a peanut butter cup with a Starburst center.

Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.

Why do they continue to show up and ask her questions? Are they still holding out hope that she will one day tell the truth?

I can’t think of a context in which someone can say the words “white pride” without immediately thinking they’re a goddamn nazi. Look at these albino lions, I guess

Let’s rewind the clock to about 1980 or so. Reagan picks up the baton of an anti-government platform from Barry Goldwater, after Goldwater’s acolytes effectively assumed control of the GOP. What followed was a systematic expungement of anyone and everyone that didn’t toe the party line, ultimately leading to the…

DAMN! There’s a Ray Bradbury story in the book the Martian Chronicles in which black people do just that. One guy gets held up by his white boss because he owes money. The have a go fund me on the spot cause “we all going nobody getting left behind!” It ends with the guy taunting his boss “what ya gonna do at night…

At this point if black women said “fuck all of yall” and boarded a spaceship and peaced out Id wish them nothing but the best, we dont deserve their presence on this planet
