I think maybe the worst part is that this attitude from white people is totally logical. Abuse any living creature from cradle to grave the way that white folks do and shit yes it makes sense to be jumpy when they go past you having a bad day. 

So your response is, “I don’t understand the question, and/or cannot find any evidence at all to support my claim that what I call “left wing” is more prone to violence than right wing. In fact, all of the evidence points to the incontrovertible conclusion that right wing groups commit the most acts of violent…

Will you please get back to me with the numbers of victims of “left-wing” acts of violence vs. “right-wing” acts of violence in this country over the last, oh, 30 years? Thanks, I’ll wait while you learn to read, learn to google, look up a bunch of shit that proves your entire worldview wrong, join eleven facebook…

“Ahem! Since nobody asked, or even silently wondered, OUR POSITION ON THIS CONTROVERSY IS THAT WE ARE REMOVING OURSELVES FROM THIS CONTROVERSY BY LOUDLY AND ACTIVELY TAKING A SPECIFICALLY OUTLINED SIDE AND EXPLAINING OUR POLITICS BEHIND IT. Anyone else who discusses this action is only further dividing this great…

“Conveniently ignores” still makes it sound better than what it actually was: an explicit and administration-wide act of non-recognition.

Right-wing protesters don’t usually go around masked breaking and setting shit on fire when they protest

I didn’t say anything about friends, I said that I think the generals probably don’t side against the majority of the citizenry if it comes down to it. There’s an enormous difference. 

When it comes down to it, I honestly expect local and state law enforcement to side with the MAGAts against the majority of the citizenry, but I think the military actually does the right thing. I think.

Nah

Unfortunately, most of us don’t need to be told that law-enforcement resources and sympathies are strongly weighted against all social good, and toward right-wing fascism. And for the people who actually need to learn this, this proof will be meaningless. There’s no saving this country. 

Ya know, I looked it up, and racism is Mississippi’s state flower! I thought it was Alabama’s, but that one’s diabetes. 

there are more poor families than rich families in the world.

Well, my friend, see below, and I’m offering action on the o/u at 2.5 years post-retirement :D 

I don’t disagree with that assessment, but too many people out here talking up how they’re gonna buy a bunch more Nikes and gloating over the stock price rising...those aren’t really good things in the main. 

Yeah, his decline will be short, nasty, and brutish. O/u is bankruptcy 2.5 years after last fight. 

The white people in Hoover are often even worse than, say, the white people in Mtn. Brook, because the Hoover ones still have the desperate insecurity and vestigial awareness of their own mediocrity that all vapid social climbers do. 

I guess she just had to keep being the most fascinating person somehow. 

OK, here’s the thing: Nike is still not “the good guys.” 

Believe me I understand it quite well, thanks. 

What’s funny is that I’m not far off in my little I’m-way-too-high fantasy: it essentially is a socialist utopia (everyone works, nobody pays [though they do encourage federal and state grants, and private endowment is both quite substantial and quite difficult to track down sources of]), only it’s just for…
