As someone who is not a Sanders supporter at all, my god do I wish Clinton would shut the fuck up already. My question is, does she honestly think she’s helping? 

“Medicare for All ‘takes health care away from people and forces them on a government plan’”

Those states are mostly white. 

What stereotype - that kitchen workers are hyper-sensitive?

Did it make for a fun story?

It makes sense if you’re the Roman royal watching from your private box in the Coliseum. For the rest of us slave fighters in the pits, not so much.

Insurance is the worst and many of my fellow Boomers are fortunate enough not to get this. I only do because of the following two examples.

The one time I got laid off the COBRA quote was so ridiculous I remember actually laughing out loud.

I am being laid off in March. My company pays COBRA costs for three months after a layoff (yay, unions!) I am due to give birth six days after my company coverage expires. If I want to continue it, I will pay $2,200/month. You’d best believe I’m getting induced early.

Hahaha, oh man, it’s always fun to pull assumptions about some one else’s life out of your ass and use em to make long twitter strawman arguments

LOL at “a few grand at most.” My last job transition where I needed COBRA I got a quote of $1,300 a month! That would have been $3,900 for three months, not including other healthcare costs like copays and deductibles. This was 2012, and health insurance as obviously only skyrocketed since then. I was luckily in a…

I once saw another billionaire try to get a public servant fired for having an open game of Galaga going on his work computer!

Fat shaming is one of the last judgment-free prejudices people can carry. There are still way too may racists and gay-bashers, of course, but somebody will almost always check that shit after the fact. Fat-shaming? Still good for a laugh.

He admitted having sex with a woman who didn’t view it as consensual.  This reporter was a victim of sexual assault herself.  It was a good thing for people to point out that this guy wasn’t always a saint and this WAS the right time to do that, before his sainthood became an accepted convention.

He never said that he believed he raped her. He said he understood how she could interpret it that way.

The Washington Post wants its reporters online, and wants them commenting on things, and giving their personal perspective on things, because it makes readers feel attached to the reporters and helps drive traffic to those reporters’ stories. They encourage this, obviously knowing that they will not have any direct…

She didn’t say her tweet was covering the story in its totality. Obviously being accused of rape is not the only thing that happened in Kobe Bryant’s life. She said that people are worth remembering in their totality. Her tweet highlighted a part of that totality, just like tweets highlighting his 81 point game, or…

Yes.  Sonmez isn’t saying that a single person is responsible for telling all the good and bad things about a person.  By the time she tweeted, unqualified praise celebrating Bryant’s life had already been established as the norm both on social media and what reporting of his death had already been done, in which the…
