I feel like I have been held captive to social media since the days of AOL IMing and Xanga. I keep scaling back and scaling back, but it’s been such a huge part of my everyday functioning since middle school. I IM’d before texting was a thing (at least in my town). Everyone was always obsessed with constantly being in…

Some additional stats on not enough rich people. There were 540 Billionaires living in the US with a combined wealth of 2.399 Trillion in 2016. The amount has surely increased since.

Not enough rich people my ass.

There’s no such thing as “free healthcare for all.” People are talking about healthcare that’s free at the point of service. Just like there are no “free” roads or schools or parks. Calling it “free healthcare for all” is a tactic to make it sound like an unrealistic socialist fairytale. It’s entirely practical.

Even if it has been said before, thank you for saying it again.

This is dumb. You complain that a new green deal is sooooooo costly. Well yeah, it’s not going to be free or even cheap.

I mean, the problem is that she’s still trying to exist in a fact-based world. That immediately puts her at a disadvantage:

AOC:
Interviewer: Won’t this Green New Deal thing cost a lot and won’t you have to raise taxes?
AOC: Sure, but we can pay for it with additional taxes on the rich.  

Conservative interview:
Intervi…

I don’t believe that AOC needs a softball interview. She’s a politician, she should be able to defend her positions. But I do think a challenging interview can be accomplished without condescension, and given the condescension she’s been hammered with since she rose in prominence... maybe it’s just Anderson, or maybe…

There IS a way to pay for it! She literally just said raise taxes on upper class.

“What you are talking about, just big picture, is a radical agenda compared to the way politics is done now.”

I really fucking hate the coverage AOC gets. It’s just sexist/ageist/racist bullshit.

Her “best friend” from childhood sold a story about her first marriage and kept saying Meghan did something so “unspeakable” she couldn’t say why. The “best friend” came off like she had a massive crush on the first husband and basically picked him over Meghan. I’d cut that bitch right out of my life as well.

He IS being a jerk when, told about the situation, his response is to shrug his shoulders and be dismissive of 50% of the American people.

I do feel that it’s likely Bernie wouldn’t have known during his campaigning that women were being harassed and underpaid by comparison to their male colleagues and subordinates. But I find the “I’m just hearing about this now” disingenuous, especially since they tightened the ship for his 2018 campaign. I mean, come…

When i hear this in the bodega or dollar store i will sing these lyrics to myself to make it more bearable.

1. I have to admit, I’m one of those people who have spent 28.5k hours subscribed to and watching her Youtube channel.

So basically, they aren’t really “introducing” anything. They’re just telling you that you can customize their existing menu to meet your dietary needs?

She’s the funniest in Spice World: The Movie, though. Legit comedy timing.

It should be interesting to see the not-at-all sexist Bernie fans who totally did not refuse to vote for Hillary because she was a woman and who totally would have totally voted for Elizabeth Warren now find reasons to totally not support Elizabeth Warren.

this is wonderful and pure in its goodness
