First thing I thought was: lucky they weren’t black

Race, and racism - explicit and hidden - is a part of everything. Including automotive culture. If you can’t see that, or don’t want to believe that, you’re a part of the problem

Middle aged white guy here, and I thought the same thing.

Like how the guy in the Jeep was like, “WASN’T US!” That’s about the time I’d be pissing myself.

I wouldn’t take one single passing mention in an article as typical of the position of all “lefties.”

I don’t live in his potential district but I am on the very edge, my neighbor across the street is in his district, so I see the ads and stuff for him and it always cracks me up. He’s this baby-faced kid in a bulletproof vest holding his rifle with one of the WASP-iest names I’ve ever heard talking about stopping…

Imagine creating an organization that celebrates conspicuous consumption and unearned wealth and then having either the extreme self-awareness, or the extreme lack thereof, to call your organization One Percent.

Holy shit.

That certainly is a novel take on the “I can’t be racist” trope.

What can you say to someone like this? It sounds like he got a C- in Econ 101 and that is the extent of what he understands about how markets work. How does he think “more competition” would work for medical care? After suffering a sudden, catastrophic injury, he would have shopped around for the cheapest care? Like,…

Rossi allegedly wrote to D’Elia, ‘I’m 21 now and [down to f***].’ His reps say D’Elia didn’t respond to her.”
