I have not seen any evidence that we understand them enough to fight them effectively. If so, the president would not be a white nationalist. The senate would not be majority white nationalist. The house would not be majority white nationalist. Almost two thirds of state governments would not be majority white…

What humanizes them is the fact they are human. That doesn’t make them less morally repugnant. Being human is what makes them immoral. Since animals aren’t moral or immoral, you have to humanize them to make any sort of moral judgment at all.

Do scientists who research cancer normalize cancer? Do paleontologists…

When your son gets sick do you tell the pediatrician to go fuck himsef instead of trying to diagnose the illness?

I hope the Heyer family doesn’t waste time and money on a lawsuit that they will lose.

Understanding is important. Treating Nazism as a mystical, ineffable, inexplicable phenomenon doesn’t do anyone any good.

They’re expecting it will be too soon to release about extinction after the nuclear war that will happen in early January.

If nothing else, Watchmen was peak “Guys, comics are serious and aren’t just for kids anymore.” That moment peaked thirty years ago. Even Moore and Gibbons couldn’t re-make Watchmen and it be the same as Watchmen.

The really hard to believe aspect is that this huge conspiracy could be uncovered and anyone cares. After Iraq and after last year’s election I don’t see how that’s a realistic belief. I’m 99% certain that even if everyone knew Ozymandius faked the alien squid invasion, we’d all just pretend he didn’t.

He did not get consent for any of those eggs.

Yes, either through FCC rule making or by an act of congress.

I think one can and should distinguish levels of wrongdoing and think seriously about the credibility of the allegations.

I’ve never watched a streaming show and said to myself “man, it would be great if the plot was more drawn out.” But I’m mostly thinking of Netflix shows that dump all the episodes at once.

It’s all he ever had.

I have worked a back of house job. I have also delivered pizza. I still had to take a lot of loans to pay for school because I don’t live in the 1950s.

These fucking tech dicks should all be thrown in the bay and fed to the crabs. What sort of parasitic, useless prick do you have to be to think the problem with tipping is principally that it’s an inefficient means of rating your server instead of it being a shitty way to earn a living?

Then they fucking know better.

Obviously, if they had a moral compass, Trump would never have been the nominee.

I used to think that the typical Republican voter and maybe even the typical Republican politician actually believed that tax cuts that chiefly benefited the wealthy would help everyone. I thought they were wrong, but I thought they had a…

Arrested Development already has a strict “No Touching” policy.

Median income is $59,000. Winning $1M is worth about 17 years of wages. That’s a little less than half the time span of a career. And because the tax system is still nominally progressive, a million all at once is less valuable than a million over 17 years

Beer and liquor prices are probably pretty sticky. And most liquor is distributed by like 4 companies, with minimal incentive to compete on price.
