I’ll answer it. They don’t know any of that or its history. Nor do they know the history of race, economics, technological innovation, war....

That’s one way to show your true colors--and an excellent way to tell me just how much this conversation’s actually worth.

So your response to all of this, given the opportunity to move the needle in some way, is to begin with an insult, reply with dismissive language, and then say, “I’m right because I’m right?”

Jesus.  That shit wouldn’t pass muster in even a first year Rhet/Comp course.  I really hope you’ve got better advocates for…

I mean, oof, the sheer short-sightedness of this article made me CRINGE!!

I teach.

My working hours are usually equivalent to or greater than yours, factoring in office hours, prep, planning, grading, and required professional development.

But I didn’t feel a need to bring that into a discussion en route to referring to someone else as “sanctimonious” over a position. If you’re a writer, you…

That “unwilling to work” language WAS in the Ocasio-Cortez website’s FAQ page, but it has since been taken down. Wise move, IMHO— that’s Republican language. They’d be wise to avoid such terminology.

actually, yes.

Hmm....I was wondering that too. The internet is a tricky place for truth. It was not a searchable word in the resolution PDF.

Yes, that’s right: The government helped create the internet, which we all use to do our bad posts on, as well as all of the technology that makes the hardware to post it on possible, plus sent people to the fucking moon, but it needs the commercial innovation of the entrepreneurial entrepreneurs at Verizon to say,…

“the role of nuclear power”

I’m not asking for a 1000 point plan with a crunch timeline that goes down to the…

“targeted eradication”

Whole genocide of the Palestinians? I didn’t know that they were extinct. Hmm. Alert the UN. There are imposters in Palestine.

Yeah, it’s not genocide. It’s many things, with a lot of differing opinions, but it’s not that. 

Had the opportunity to train with the Israelis back in the mid-90s and those guys are some bad dudes.  Very professional in the way they go about doing what they do.  Nice guys but I wouldn’t want to cross them.

Is it your sole purpose in life to suck the fun out of everything?

i bet you are a huge blast at parties....

Eh, 10 mpg loaded, 14 mpg unloaded in mixed driving. A 2500/3500 won’t do much better and has far less capability.

Only if I can have an Express Van body added to it in place of the crew cab and bed.......or at least in addition to the crew cab!

Dad never did end up taking you to Monster Jam like he promised, did he?
