Kevin Draper: I am a resident of the District of Columbia, which voted 91 percent for Barack Obama in 2012, only has three electoral votes, and doesn’t have representation in the House or Senate. There is no vote less consequential than my vote, and thus I don’t have to seriously grapple with voting for Hillary…

I’m pretty sure both governors have railed against the federal government in the past. It’s what they do: They hate the government until disaster strikes, and then they go begging for help.It’s hard for me to have sympathy for these people. They scream about government interference—except when it comes to women’s…

Also xojane had an author who said that Jews should’ve just dyed their hair blonde to get out of the Holocaust. Recently they deleted a story featuring a woman defending her brother’s abuse of his infant. Such a shit show. And the contributors were lucky if they got their 50 bucks. Often they were shortchanged…

Sadly there is a lot of evidence proving your point. Just look at the gay rights movement. it’s no coincidence that a white-male driven movement stands as the most legislatively successful social reform movement in US history. And, the fastest: 45 years between stonewall and the federal legalization of gay marriage.…

My Trump-voting colleague has spent the last year interviewing and going through the motions to enroll in a particular federal job training program that would have guaranteed him a significantly higher salary and better benefits than our current job. Hebjust told me that he can’t get hired now because of Trump’s…

I absolutely agree that without allies in positions of privilege, including white men and women, the marginalized will not get anywhere.

I don’t trust most of the Women’s March participants to show up again. I don’t trust the resolve of their concern.

For many it is and was the first step. I see a lot of people shitting on those new to activism. Frankly you can choose to be pissed that these people didn’t have your back before, or choose to use this opportunity to turn these people. You had a bunch of people try activism for the first time and it felt good. They’re…

This all feels a bit too cute by a half. Valid concerns, many of which have been expressed people all throughout the Democratic coalition, but in this case, in a way to try and lord them over something undeniably good because you’re obviously holier than thou. Quite frankly, it’s tacky and messy.

Yeah, that’ll make the first-time marchers feel great. Can we stop picking at people who gave enough of a shit to come out and march in January, and then tell them it isn’t good enough? I think all women need to be respectful of the new-to-protest women who are now galvanized. Coming together on commonalities and…

What’s with these purity tests that people on the left require of one another?

I feel torn about the Obama presidency, like I’m pissed at people calling her Michele. No, she’s first lady Dr. Obama, (overcompensating for the inhumane treatment they’ve endured these past 8 years) but at the same time there are lot of things Obama did as a president that were terrible but didn’t get their due…

But remember y’all, Melania will finally bring class and style white skin* back into the white house.

Is this artwork satire, or the work of a fan? I can’t even tell any more...

I have a few Trump supporter friends on Facebook who have posted this image unironicly.

I just cannot believe I’m sitting here cheering for BuzzFeed, which I could have sworn just yesterday was a blog for cat videos and jokes about how hard “adulting” is.

I just saw a tweet that Tr*mp brought staffers with him and it was them laughing & applauding.

Well, if every credible news agency is now a propaganda machine, I guess my Film Studies degree is going to be way more useful than I ever thought it would be.

Such laws—called preemption laws—are in the Constitution under the Supremacy Clause to remind lawmakers that federal law is to be considered above state law and state law is to be considered above county and city law.

Exactly.
