Just to be clear, the goal isn’t about belief. The goal is to change the narrative, ideally to something that allows the conservative movement to play the victim.

I’ve thought about it this way, too. When the 9/11 truthers were first doing their thing, my question was this: so, my colleague who got on that plane that day, whom I haven’t seen since—what happened to her? Where is she? Do the truthers allege that every single person on those planes never existed? Because there was…

My thoughts: think of all the people who know you. Your friends. Your family. Your coworkers. The person who makes your no foam soy latte every morning. The ex girlfriend of your best friend. Your high school teacher.  These conspiracy theorists presuppose that every single person who knows you, or who recognizes you,…

These kids are American and they are amazing. They’re learning how not to act from this horrible administration, congress and senate. Those of us American adults who agree with them are willing to help in any way possible.

It’s clear to me that the utterly unhinged reactions this movement is causing on the right are a sign of just how threatened they are by it. This didn’t happen with Las Vegas or Orlando, but now you have people who really ought to know better throwing out this nonsense. I’ve been getting the distinct feeling that we…

Seriously. People (correctly) complain about the left’s lack of messaging/PR ability, but the right is really trying to outdo them on this one. The best thing they could have done is just issue some vague “glad to see these kids exercising their 1st amendment rights, ect” kind of statement and then just shut the fuck…

Americans are not good people.

It’s actually nothing new. It was a common charge in the ’60s leveled by conservatives against the civil rights and anti-war movements: That none of it was authentic but rather the protestors were all professional agitators funded by Moscow and/or whatever other bogeyman they wanted to wave around.

Honestly the teens should just send us all to fucking work camps. We deserve it.

Interesting how the crowd that yells fake news likes to promote actually fake news.

I realize it’s not cool to make sweeping generalizations, but I’m going to make one anyway. Anyone who believes this “crisis actor” nonsense is a special kind of dumb. I mean, a “you shouldn’t be allowed to have kids” kind of dumb. This is why we can’t have nice things.

They did it to the parents of Sandy Hook victims too. It’s nauseating.

These are the same kind of assholes who wanted Sandy Hook parents to prove that their children that were murdered actually existed. I hope they all fall into a large hole and disappear forever.

From “Fake News” to “Fake Traumatized Survivors” the bar sinks lower and lower.

I don’t necessarily blame porn for that

“conspiracists accusing them of being “crisis actors.” JFC. This is incredibly disgusting that these kids have to go through this. It’s mind blowing that this is happening. How do people that think like this live with themselves. smh. So frustrating that we can’t really do anything to stop this shit and silence those…

Of course it’s from Evangelicals. Nobody else would be stupid enough to think of such a thing.

“The only thing that stops a bad boy watching porno is a good boy... wait... that’s not working out the way I thought.” - The Florida Legislature

I’m far too old and fat to even attempt it now, but the worst part about trying to suck my own penis in middle school wasn’t that I couldn’t, but that I almost could, giving me hope that if I just got a little more nimble or found a new way to bend over or something that I could do it. If I was a foot away, then sure,…

Make up your mind, Florida. Are we firing our loads or what?
