Yes, it’s more infuriating that this bag of dicks is getting away with it and that he did it in the first place, but can we please recognize that letting this sort of thing happen to other women for 40 years isn’t okay?

No, it’s not okay to recognize that. Reporting can be just as traumatizing as the original event. Cops don’t always believe women who come forward, and there’s a lot of shame in some communities around admitting you were assaulted. I have a friend who reported, was given a lie detector test and failed (because those…
Hot take- in a reasonable world Ray Lewis would keep his mouth shut when it came to issues of morality and comportment.
Bill Maher is trash.
I eagerly await the headline, “Jared Leto in a Coma Following Savage Beating Outside Missouri Truck Stop.”
Ha, it’s all good! RU!
I did because I know some people think us drug addicts are the worst of the worst. Even worst than those fuckers. I’m not changing hearts and minds but I wanted to demonstrate the disdain so many of my fellow citizens sees me as worst than killers and rapists. The mind of a conservative!
Someone should have done something about that beached whale in the pic.
I don’t think you have a firm grasp on the meaning of the phrase “throwing someone under the bus.”
I’m okay being divisive against a man who wants to see me hanged.
I don’t think the conservative part is the problem. The hang-the-women part is the problem. But then again maybe that’s been the conservative position all along.

Fuck this racist, misogynistic dude. You don’t get to call for the murder of women because they exercise their legal choice of abortion just to be edgy. Stating your opinions has consequences, the most important of which for a writer should be denial of a platform. Shame on the Atlantic...
He rejected her apology because he saw right through her motivations for giving it (and it wasn’t because she was actually sorry for baselessly attacking him).
Extreme partisan hackery? You think these kids are motivated by one-upping the right? Now That’s Outrageous. You really need to learn to differentiate between honest, in-good-faith arguments and propaganda crafted to manipulate. These kids aren’t playing a game.
These kids aren’t getting attention for their policy acumen - they’re getting attention because they are expressing the agony and frustration many of us feel about this issue, and doing it in an emotionally honest, direct and fearless manner. They’re standing up to national institutions like the NRA that were thought…
I completely agree. Also, why shouldn’t we be post-morteming the election and trying to figure out reasons for the loss? That seems like it would be very helpful?
