Actually, it’s very similar to anti-POC racism. Think about it: today, most people are “I’m fine with black people” as long as they look, speak, act, and vote in prescribed ways (Ben Carson, etc.) It’s not focused on the color of the skin as much as the identity and what SUPPOSEDLY goes along with that (welfare…

The main thing I got from this was “Holy shit, 1989 was 28 years ago.” :-O

They’ve been told so many times that Christians are the only true persecuted group in America that they believe it.

I was raised in a Missouri Synod Lutheran church from age ~9 to ~16. It was definitely too conservative for me and I disliked it, but it wasn’t particularly screaming fundamentalist either. Mostly just...eh. Honestly, that was my impression. We memorized Bible verses to earn tokens to buy stuff (I thought that was…

I want to make it clear that I do not condone violence. Having said that, this guy has the MOST punchable face. Too little too late when you helped write the playbook!

I’m sorry to hear you voted for him. Past actions can’t be undone but future actions MATTER. I don’t know or care about Trump’s personal character, but his actions (and many of his colleagues’) have been very racist, bigoted, xenophobic actions. The truth is that words spoken out loud or written on subway walls are…

But even if you explain about BC and lowering abortion and keeping it safe and rare, how do you get that information TO these voters who get their news so carefully edited? Not a rhetorical question, just a desperate one.

Completely agree with you that these questions are things our society needs to struggle with. Ignoring all the conservative corporate people that are funding & doing these things & labeling it a librul thing keeps us from doing that because then its “them” not “us” :-/

>I guess we could always try throwing a bone to the ones who actually support things like dirt cheap birth control that would actually reduce the number of abortions [& social services after birth], and be like “lol no” to the ones who are just hypocritical self-loathing misogynists.

I strongly disagree! Plenty of Dems are ready to “be nice” and roll over. And plenty of Dems have high-paying donors that affect their votes. EVERYONE needs to do this to keep ALL elected officials on their toes.

Eh. They were at an age (12) old enough to know right from wrong. But they should be tried as children and mental health & rehabilitation should be the primary focus & goal of their incarceration.

Yeah I’m with you. Now, did I watch all of these videos and take a moment to enjoy them? Um, yeah. I’m human - God’ll forgive me, he’s cool like that. And I’m not going to stand in huge judgment of the guy that did it or those that enjoy it (like me, for instance). But long-term it can only hurt (a tiny bit) the…

Isn’t that the DNC person that mailed the Clinton campaign questions ahead of time? She’s completely unethical and deserves to get fired - from everything - possibly forever. I don’t know whether Stacy Dash was fired because she is an aging black woman or because she was crap at her job, but either way - good for her.…

More and more there are 20-somethings playing teens in movies and TV - which only reinforces bad ideas of how developed and mature teens and their bodies should be. I strongly dislike it :-/

>You started this by saying “autonomy over one’s own body is a right”...but then you contradict that

She really isn’t, and here’s why: Being pro-choice should be about having the right to decide what happens inside your own body. If the fetus isn’t viable, then taking it out means ending its growth so abort it. But if…

Hope it’s okay that I screenshot your comment and posted it on FB. It is exactly, exactly how I feel right now :-(

Ha! Exactly

Yes.
