Yeah it’s totally weird people are worried a racist, sexist, bigoted nutjob will become our president while value voters pat themselves on the back. I can’t imagine why anyone would come to that conclusion on their own. They must be brainwashed!

You’re acting like people don’t have legitimate critiques of Stein. Anyone who thinks they are compromising their political ideology if they vote for Hillary Clinton but is fine with voting for Stein, despite her repeated panderings to the pseudo-science folks (most notably anti-vaxxers) is kidding themselves.

I’m still running into people who are voting 3rd party in Ohio because “Trump and Hillary are equally bad.” We’re a fucking swing state, and people’s constitutional rights are on the line, but they, in the immortal words of Sam Bee, insist on remaining “morally pure” (have have the fucking PRIVILEGE to do so).

about 92% of things posted on that sub are fake, which is why i love reading it

“Last week, New York state assemblyman Bill Nojay fatally shot himself last week in a Rochester cemetery, just feet away from his family’s burial plot”

The right to be believed doesn’t dictate personal behavior. It’s a standard for police investigation and public reporting - the idea that any alleged rape is likely true and should be investigated and the victim supported. It doesn’t mean that a woman must believe the word of a stranger over that of her husband and…

One assumes when Hillary Clinton says that sexual assault victims have a right to be believed, she means by the authorities etc. when they report. Because a lot of women have a hellish time with the police and whatnot placing the burden of proof on sexual assault victims and re-victimizing them. And I also agree with…

All I know is I will NOT be voting for Bill Clinton this November.

I have no idea if Broaddrick’s allegations are true or not, but her story is credible enough, and should be treated with sensitivity and seriousness.

instead of just focusing on the most aggressive people in the room?

Does it honestly not bother you that Bernie supporters are sending death threats to a woman who, as far as I can tell, was just doing her job? I get wanting to have positive coverage of your preferred candidate, but any coverage of the event that leaves out the booing and death threats is still pretty slanted - it’s…

“Have you lost your mind?” Amy asked. “What do you even know about this man who would become her father?”

It’s not just the proofreading though. Stuff like this:

You’re a professional writer and you think the phrase is, “on the lamb?”

If you’re a huge asshole, then so am I. I was reading all the way through, thinking “Just get a second job at Taco Bell and pay your arrears.”

This is good Kinja.

Damn.

“We take responsibility” is, quite clearly, the active voice. Pluralizing the first person (to reflect all of SB Nation) does not make it passive even if it dilutes Lockland’s personal liability.

That’s.. now how I read it. I read it as in the organization as a whole. He’s apologizing for multiple people, thus its grammatically accurate. Which makes more sense as the ball was seemingly dropped not just by him alone.

Pending an improbable exoneration from the internal peer review, everything [Arnold] had worked for is now gone, likely never to be recovered, ever again. Recovery, if there is any, appears to be something deserved only by the Twitter critics of a freelancer whose future writing career will apparently be, like the way…
