Yes, something becomes ethical when multiple politicians do it. Makes sense.

Kickass straw-men yet again, bro. Do you communicate in anything but?

You're spinning, a lot.

Take your nuanced position and leave!

I don't think Clinton's presidency should be endured. I think she should be elected to keep Trump out and then engaged activist citizens should keep up constant pressure to prevent her from enacting her worst policies. Her ongoing obsession with eastward NATO expansion alone puts the human species at risk. Her fealty…

I don't think that's true at all. I've never met a Sanders supporter who thinks Clinton murdered Vince Foster which is an accepted truth in rightwing circles. In my experience, it's Clinton supporters who ignore or downplay her actual transgressions. The interesting thing is you're responding to a list of policies…

For what it's worth, polls have shown that there were far more H Clinton supporters who voted McCain after she lost to Obama than there are Sanders supporters who will vote Trump after he lost to H Clinton.

#1 is such an important point - Clinton supporters convince themselves that the only reason Trump has any support is that his supporters are all stupid racists or sexists. There's a significant amount of racism propelling his candidacy but opposition to NAFTA alone is going to get a huge amount of support from people…

Multiple straw-men here.

What you said there is correct. But Trump's climate denialism alone puts the human species at risk. I totally understand not voting Clinton (I won't either) but the alternate choice to voting Clinton is not "vote Trump," it's "vote 3rd party" or "don't vote."

Yes, calling out racism is moral but doing nothing *but* that and failing to address economic grievances is nothing but a way to feel superior without fixing anything.

Nope. Actual grievances most certainly get confused with bullshit solutions. That's the entire history of rightwing populism. Hitler was one of the most popular leaders in German history - he recognized and addressed economic grievances and gave easy scapegoats to blame.

Yeah, and also that just calling people stupid racists actually *doesn't* convince them to join your side. It's almost like you should listen to and address their grievances, or demagogues will easily mislead about the actual causes.

He did say some stuff about Bernie Sanders that I was disappointed by. Just continuing with the "policies that much of Western Europe managed are a totally nonsensical pipe dream giveaway" narrative. And that is most definitely my partly-paraphrased quote in a Cliff notes recreation.

Agreed, but it might be because there has been near constant expository dialogue in every other scene this season, and it was throwing people off that those scenes were showing instead of telling.

Yes- you're right. Fair enough. That is a bit weird, to say they were like a secret favorite before then.

They really were pretty unknown at one point. I remember being at a Skankin' Pickle concert in 1993 (pre-Dookie), and Billie Joe came out for one song. There wasn't some big huge response, it was like if Milo Aukerman got on stage or something. A friendly and happy recognition clap from a pretty specific crowd.

I saw Avatar in IMAX 3D and it was really amazing-looking. That movie has weirdly lost its place in the culture but at the time it was a real event. I still really like it.

It's bigger than one troubled kid, which is the whole point. In all sincerity, I hope you read this - this is from the conservative Red State blog, written from an actually-conservative perspective that is concerned about government overreach, in this case the police.

One of the interesting things I noticed when I spent some time in Asia is that nobody gives a shit about a female janitor in the men's room. She just did her job, didn't have to put CLOSED FOR CLEANING sign up. I noticed this in several countries. Don't know if there were male janitors cleaning actively-in-use women's…
