Yeah I mean it definitely helps if the 2 or 3 plays in your playbook are actually GOOD plays.. Someone forgot to tell that to Dotard, though.

Um... What?!

Good call. Genuine, good-faith criticism, even when negative, entails taking something seriously, and is a sign of respect and credibility/legitimacy. Silencing negative criticisms out of racial/class/whatever solidarity is, as you say, self-defeating and counter-productive: good art, whether black or otherwise,…

GENUINE criticism, literary or otherwise, entails taking something seriously and meeting it on its own terms (of course, plenty of criticism is not genuine, but made in bad faith). But genuine criticism is itself a sign of respect and credibility. Genuine criticism made in good faith should never be silenced or…

hurrr durrr, babaelon finally made big boy poops in the big boy potty- aren’t we all as proud of him as he clearly is of himself? Lol. 

Castro is very good, on the issues/policies. But he’s also not a legitimate contender (polling at slightly over 1%), which I suspect is why he tends to be left out.

Fuck Joe “No Forced Busing” Biden.

This is the same move he made with his taxes- claiming he wanted to release them, but that he can’t because they’re under audit. The Trump playbook only has 2 or 3 plays, which he runs over and over and over, and this is one of them.

Oh it definitely didn’t work, but it made enough of an impression that decades later people still know what the phrase “just say no” refers to.. Can we say the same of “be best”? I think we can pretty safely answer that in the negative- a decade from now, all that we’re going to remember about Trump is the corruption,…

lol yeah me too

amen

I love me some Rip Sherman, but holy smokes that’s an unflattering picture of him to lead the article with! 

Kid Rock still exists? That’s... um... fun, I guess? 

These pro-confederate statues and monuments are not so much about “commemorating the dead”, as they are about bestowing honor and nostalgia on dishonorable individuals fighting for a dishonorable cause through dishonorable methods.

150 years later, and white people in the south are STILL fighting for slavery and the confederacy. Pathetic, you guys lost, and losers/slavers don’t get fucking monuments and statues in their honor. 

Naturally, anyone ranting about illegal immigrants is a total doofus, so its not surprising she tweeted her fucking PHONE NUMBER while expressing concern over keeping her identity secret. Also, thinking tweets are private messages. Just precisely as idiotic as you would expect, from a nativist-racist fool. 

durrrrr durrrrr derrrrrrp

36 years of their life, down the drain. Better late than never and all, but holy shit that’s a long time to be imprisoned for something you didn’t do.

We actually have a word for the sort of bitch ass coward that pulls a gun for a paint roller, and that word is... “cop” 

Yeah I thought there was a rule or a law or something that forbid convicting white police officers for killing unarmed black people for no reason- who would have imagined? Maybe there’s hope for humanity after all. Probably not, but maybe.
