He is Aodhán Ó Ríordáin - Labour party Senator in the Rep of Ireland. A great guy and one day I hope he runs the country.

Roo, I’m fucking freaking out about the Dems wanting to move some of their leadership positions to appeal more towards the “white, working class” of middle America that embraced Trump. What exactly does this mean?

I just get ... really upset that appeasing deplorables seems to be the strategy tried first, globally.

The Brexit result was a disaster, which could not have been won without the racists, but it was much more complex than the very simple choice American citizens faced and I’d need an essay to discuss that one.

As an American, I wish everyone would watch that video. I’m appalled by what’s happening here. I cast my vote for Hillary, along with the majority of voters, and apparently it made no difference. I feel more powerless than I’ve ever felt. We have a suicidal pilot flying our plane, and a group of deranged yes-men…

This stuff is why I donate to The Guardian and similar. Foreign news outlets did a MUCH better job than American news sources of rightly skewering the orange hatemonger during the campaign.

I visited an internment camp museum in my hometown not long ago. It felt like a rightly bygone era. A lesson learned and observed in solemnity. Apparently not. I’m ashamed as fuck to be white. I want to apologize to everyone, everywhere. I’m sorry.

That’s true. Here’s an interesting New York Times article about it http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/28/us/time-for-supreme-court-to-overrule-korematsu-verdict.html

Just wow, the US can never call itself the leader of free world . I am getting mad at a lot of politicians who are downplaying how fucked up this is, you guys have elected a fascist.

Just a reminder...

Also, FUCK YOU, you are NOT a liberal or a feminist and here is why:

Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on the way out, Trumpanzee.

Dude, you are the epitome of thinking equality is oppression.

oh god Bill Maher is a totally sexist, arrogant asshole. The sexism was really pissing me off, but then he went full on Islmophobic, and I was done.

Social justice has not improved much of anything for people of color. Rather it’s just made things slightly shittier for white people.

yes this drives me crazy. mr freaktrick was on this kick too, that we are just too PC and that we talk down to non liberals and that is what makes them hate us. That it’s essentially our own fault. And I’m like “first off just being intelligent and speaking clearly and calmly they take as talking down to them so I…

Tl;dr White men for once had their feelings hurt, and they voted due to FEELINGS.

Maher isn’t a liberal. He’s a libertarian dudebro of the South Park variety.

What is “obvious” to your children is not very obvious to the majority of the inhabitants of this continent. And no, you’re wrong. Some people continue to “get away with anything”. I’m not even going to give you the satisfaction of commenting on every one of your absurd points because it’s been a long week and there…

Two thoughts come to mind:
