Why don’t they look around the room and ask why there aren’t enough good schools for all the children, instead of resenting the fact that their kid might have to go to the schools they thought were good enough for all the kids except their own?

No, she’s a person. We should think hard about this, because there is already a pattern of the right erasing voices on the left in exactly this fashion. The people amplifying this are themselves often tweeting homophobic or racist slurs.

Uh, no. Calling your spouse out in front of millions of people doesn’t seem normal to me.

Right, like the Atlantic just acted completely surprised that that dude they hired was into hanging women.

Honestly, the fact that all that stuff was deleted once and had to be dug up again ought to be the end of the story. Like, please delete all your homophobic, racist, sexist crap. That’s kind of the goal of social justice movements.

What book could a person so antagonized by the idea of human life possibly write?

I’m pushing back on your comment because your life still matters if a baby falls out of you.

The really depressing thing about your comment is that it should matter to you.

This is interesting, but I’m kind of unnerved by the idea of automating services to stalk content like that. That’s how I was caught with a takedown notice on YouTube for a video I made using a Trent Reznor song. I fought it successfully because that particular song was actually released with a creative commons share…

Your comment is awesome, because relationships and especially romantic love are fragile, emergent properties. I met my husband when I was in high school and we have been through a lot since then. I have known him more than half my life even though we got married a lot later. And objectively, I have to admit that I…

Shhh. Don’t tell anyone.

They’ve gone and broke New Orleans. Motherfuckers.

This is such a big part of this. The GOP and the NRA are reinforcing each other’s messages: it is not just King. It’s everywhere. Point it out and document it as much as possible. The Second Amendment hates the First and the Party of Family Values thinks your kids are a threat to their gun collections.

That’s all entertainment.

But spelling games are sold on the basis they teach your kid to spell. Math games are sold on the basis that they teach your kid to add.

Well, that goes both ways.

“Not the best analogy, I admit, but not exactly a bad one, otherwise the term “corporate slave” wouldn’t exist. Also, it makes sense that a company wouldn’t flog their employees. Harassment is harder to prove than scars and wounds.”

Now now, S1D is only saying that he would have been very happy to purchase a 12 year old girl. As a marriage partner. And slavery is better than working for Initrode. That’s the culture he prefers.  

I also don’t think journalists are the same as “the media”. I know some amazing journalists who are not ever featured in the mainstream media and then there is Chris Cillizza.

It’s so much easier to print stuff you don’t actually believe though. That’s kind of the problem with the entire media. The real people are in the streets and in the trenches doing the work while people are spoofing the NYT editorial page.
