This is who i consider a “neoliberal corporatist shill”: Someone who would be considered such in my birth country; i.e. someone who opposes a national, publicly funded healthcare system, a national, publicly funded education (including higher education) and a national, publicly funded police force. If you oppose those…

Or maybe, just maybe, that’s a hint that Trudeau is actually not so different from Trump.

So, gloves need to come off against the representatives who have the support of the segment of population with the most guns-per-person, of the police forces and of the army.

Having in account that a majority of Americans can’t afford a reasonably good education, more than miscalculation, it is privilege at work.

That’s just it. My friends often say something to the sort, like having direct contact to someone’s ex’s , etc. And i don’t fail too add “well, then there’d be binders about us, too.”

In my binder, among the first entries: -Raining in everybody else’s parades

You raise an important point. Before we feel bad for this person, we need to know: was he a Trump voter?

Is there a president of the US in the last... 36 years, that hasn’t met all these criteria to a t?

and investigative reporting is all we have left

The difference is that those videos in pornhub might make me cry 30 seconds tops. I cried for good 10 minutes after La La Land was over.

We’re living the Trumpian age, where facts can be discredited with alternative facts, and thinking before speaking is WEAK! and SAD!

He is up to speed, it’s the journalist who isn’t. For the Press Secretary it was much more convenient to frame the whole discussion as a hypothetical question, even if it wasn’t.

The past 40 years have done a pretty good job of eroding people’s faith in the representativity of elections and on the press. It just has reached a boiling point.

Trump is the consequence of this, not the cause.

implies that white women lack agency which is false

Well, if the hate crime is resisting arrest, then it follows necessarily that you are resisting arrest because they are cops. If they were violin players you wouldn’t be resisting arrest because violin players can’t arrest.
The logic is ironclad in this case, and because of the nature of the “crime”, it’s not necessary…

On the other hand, she could be the one dealing domestic abuse in her home.

It’s because there’s no shortage of women willing to do it.

I’m willing to bet that her parents were Trump voters and she wanted them to regret their choice.

I bet that Trump will use this, after he loses, as “evidence”that the Republican Party has been working against him, claiming the supposed votes as his.

I don’t see how that would be a step. Why would we even want to consider to give robots/androids a sense of self, or consciousness? Specially if they are designed for “human comfort” tasks (sex robots, or role-play robots, like in Westworld). Consciousness might make sense if we put them to tasks that require a high…

Sure, needs treatment.
