I feel like this criticism, while maybe not entirely invalid, is going to great lengths to make perfect the enemy of the good.

Totally unnecessary post and totally unhelpful to everything that’s going on right now. We don’t need to keep dividing ourselves. He made a pretty awesome statement and said that he stood with us. I don’t know what your fucking problem is, but if you keep this up for the next four years, it will not make anything…

I dunno I appreciated it. At least he is standing up and saying SOMETHING in light of this tragedy which is more than I can say for some of my friends.

You know Gawker went under, right Rich? No need for snarking on a reasonable guy saying mostly admirable things anymore. Being shitty for no reason turned out not to be edgy or cool, just a dick move.

Yeah, I’m confused.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I feel like this post is a weird attempt to take issue with Falahee’s statement despite the fact that there is nothing wrong with it.

Ah... Brendan O’Connor. I remember his inflammatory, thinly veiled sexist bullshit from Gawker. I thought he went away when Gawker went under. Ugh.

i am angry at that line too.

Would you mind defining “alt-left”?

I like when people say “populism is the danger” since its one step away from “democracy is the danger.” Hard to persuade people to vote for you when you will openly admit you don’t trust them.

LBJ had a point when he said, “The difference between Liberals and cannibals, is that cannibals eat only their enemies.”

lol

Democrats are obsessed with purity tests, Republicans know its about bodies pulling the right lever.

The flavor of Jezebel lately has been “circle the wagons” and “we ran a perfect campaign”. As goes our comments’ section, so goes the nation, I always say.

Democrats fracture along personal pet issues, Republicans just...hate everything, but at least they do it together?

Agreed.

Democrats fall in love, while Republicans fall in line.

Here’s our plan, from what I can tell:

You haven’t consider which audience he is trying to please.

I wanted to have him strung up in the town square for giving me so much hope! Curse you, math man.
