Ilhan Omar made some tweets, and was blamed by many for feeding into rising anti-Semitic violence with her words. And Chelsea Clinton was the one who opened the flood gates on that shit. I don’t have a speck of sympathy for Clinton in this whole matter. If she doesn’t want other people to purposely misread her tweets

YES. thank you.

Didn't he travel the country campaigning for Clinton?

Every entrant in the Democratic primary potentially will draw votes away from the eventual nominee. Some supporters of primary losers ALWAYS ends up not voting for the nominee in the general. A segment of Clinton supporters didn’t vote for Obama in 2008. And 2016 was a unique year, and Sanders a unique candidate, that

Liberal white girl Prachi Gupta? Dumbass motherfucker, her fucking picture’s right there at the bottom of the article. If you’re gonna troll, do it fucking right.

Yeah shit up you as a white person dont get to decide people should move on. 

Yeah, never. It’s never ok. 

If I make a joke about cancer, and find out someone at the dinner party just got diagnosed... I don’t respond “Fuck you, it was just a joke”. I say “Jesus, I had no idea. I’m sorry I was such an asshole.”

Also, in their youth?

Is this a joke? Really? Whiteface has no history. It’s rooted in nothing. Blackface is a destructive historical atrocity. That’s why one is offensive and the other is Chapelle show & Wayans memes

remind us again when white folks were denied, oh, i dunno, anything, because of the color of their skin?

This is the point of “running.” We look at your record and vet you. This is part of her record, and thus we should examine it carefully.

This is all I want. An actual, grownup conversation about her. But it seems like the second anyone brings up her record as a prosecutor is labeled a troll or Russian agent. Of course the waters are muddy because there certainly are and will be those who are trolls/Russians doing similar things.

I’m over symbolism, enough of it, and i’m not gonna be browbeaten to support Kamala Harris. There’s got to be someone who isn’t as bound up with the prison industrial complex, as she is, running on the democratic side - gotta be. My hope is that she does not win the primaries and thus having to vote for her against

She was a fucking prosecutor! I’m sorry but we’re not can’t just ignore that! that’s definitely something people should be talking about given the problem we have in this country with the prison industrial complex.

Fuck you. I haven’t even mentioned Bernie at all (who last I checked hasn’t even announced he was going to run yet.) Right now we only have two people who put their hat in the ring and I’ve not put in a word for any damn body but we damn sure should do a better job of looking at people closely.

Given that she also took money from Steve Mnunchin whilst not going after him for the predatory practices vis a vis mortgages you’re going to have to do a bit better than that.

If the person who threw that punch had hit Richard Spencer just because he didn’t like his stupid haircut and had no clue of his political beliefs, I would similarly not waste any tears on him while maintaining a “You shouldn’t punch people because of their stupid haircuts” stance. My general disapproval of an act can

The entire thrust of every article about Spencer is that punching someone in the face is ok so long as it’s the right face. 

“...she wrote for many of the same publications as Spencer, and shared many of his views—her politics don’t excuse his abuse.”
