You think there’s hope for the country and deep down there’s good people out there. It’s hard to keep a positive outlook when there’s so much evil and hatred in the world. You desperately want people to come together for the good of society and put aside differences and lift each other up.

It’s funny — one of the primary avenues of attack against Omar coming from liberals is that although they agree with some of her criticisms, she’s too “careless” with her words, or that the language she uses somehow invites bad-faith takes like these. Thing is though, as seen above, there’s no way to be careful when…

I’m hoping it escalates and every US gov. building winds up with like, a dozen weird-ass statues out front.

If humanity needs to hear the grave warnings of climate change from a man in order to save the planet, fine.

I want for all the poor inhabitants of Westeros, whose relatives have suffered and died during the endless wars, to realize that that they are merely pawns in this game being ruled by an elite class, whereupon they rise up and execute their leaders, and seize the machinery of state to form a new utopian society formed…

being mad at country for committing war crimes and murdering people and being mad at the person revealing it, are two different thoughts sure, but they dont go well together at all. 

I mean, any decent person (and I don’t think Assange is a particularly decent person) should strive to be an enemy of the US, very much including its intelligence community, which as caused so much needless death and devastation worldwide that you’d think it was their job or something. Which, oh wait, it is!

Exactly. It’s the subtle classicism of old-school Manhattanites punching down on old-school Brooklynites. You make fun of the accent so you don’t have to pay attention to what the man is saying.

It’s because of institutionalized antisemitism. Hope this clears things up!

What rhetoric? Are you fucking kidding? She’s pointing out basic objective facts and people are threatening to kill her. Who the fuck ungreyed you?

Don’t get me started. When I was a child in the 1970s, my auntie (who was also my guardian) would give her pastor tithes every week, plus offering on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The man and his family lived in a gorgeous house in a nice part of our town that the people in his ghetto storefront church bought him…

My pet prediction is that Gendry and Sansa end up married. It would:

Whenever Sanders says something stupid, someone at Splinter criticizes him from his left. Like, there’s even links on this very page to examples of this happening. To pretend otherwise is very weird, particularly when so many right wing chuds in the comments here (even when he isn’t mentioned in the posts they’re…

So Harris AKA black Hillary has too much baggage, gay Hillary AKA Buttigieg is accidentally racist, metoo Hillary AKA Joe Biden likes to get too close, Obama Hillary AKA Beto stands for exactly nothing but feels the need to run (he could run as a sensor BTW, so this is especially wasteful)...

IMHO Tank! is the best show theme song of all time, and this is not a designation I award lightly.

So an employee in a workshop where the boss forces them to watch fox news is unreachable?

Why don’t the nut jobs with rifles ever go after people it would be useful to get rid of?

Aside from Snyder exhibiting a certain amount of contempt for the vision of superheroes that, uh, lots of fans of superheroes have, what strikes me about it is how much seems like bad storytelling from the standpoint that it only works by trading on that same prior relationship the part of his audience he’s smug about…

Zack Snyder on people “whining” about how Batman/Superman shouldn’t murder people:
