Yeah, that jumped out at me too. I assume the author must be quite young; that’s the sort of take that I’d expect from someone who’s never known anything but our current political system.

That last bit really drives home what Cuomo doesn’t seem to understand: that the mission of law enforcement is inherently political.

Turns Out Left Wing Politics Do Pretty Well in the Midwest After All

For priviliged white progressives, moral victories for socialism are more important than actual victories against racism, fascism, nazism....

Took me a second to catch my breathe, what with all that spinnin’ going on this article.

With fewer than 90 days to go till the election, Alexander Ocasio Cortez has chosen an awfully strange time to begin insulting centrist Democrats. One would almost think that she would rather see centrists lose Individual districts, than see Democrats win Back the house and senate.

She didn’t need to change her history or personality. People need to change a) their misogyny and b) their gullibility in which they believe whatever the GOP tells them (and that applies to lefties who went off about “holding their nose” for Hillary).

The problem is that when asked how they are going to pay for single payer health, free college for everyone, etc., they have no answer other than “tax the rich.” Yet, California and Vermont have both considered single payer health care and both dropped it when it turned out they would have to greatly increase taxes on…

Cause he’s worried about ruining his indie cred?

Wait, was he a great big fat person?

Leaked footage of Trump watching those rallies at home. 

Let’s see. President opposes Lebron. Michael Jordan immediately says “I support Lebron.”

I will forever remember my reaction upon waking the morning after, checking the results, and then not believing my eyes.

H-how useful? Centrist Democrats - The DNC - are the only segment of the left that can actually win at this point. Yeah yeah, DSA this and that. Please get real. You will not use the platform the DNC built so that you can lose to Trump and his supporters. You will not have access to the funds we raise.

“The simplest possible explanation for what’s become a sprawling mess is that these people are”

unfathomably fucking stupid, every single last one of them. 

Making jokes about white people isn’t the same as making racist jokes about black people, or Asian people, or Jews, or gay people, or any other historically oppressed minority.

Eh, this is what we’ve decided we’re comfortable with. We drag nuanced situations into the dumbest, least-nuanced sphere of “discourse” and expect actual discourse to occur.

In a perfect world, we’d be able to have tough conversations about these nuances. But, alas, we’re a collection of weaponized fucktards looking…

“All I’m saying is that the party that does not give me everything I want the second I ask for it is the truly evil party, not the party doing the actual evil shit. Why is that so hard to understand, LOLCentrists, something about Hillary Clinton, let’s check in on whatever dumb thing happened on The View, by the way…

Followed by the 12pm “The Dems are equally as bad as Republicans bc they won’t blow smoke up my ass and know the legislative process!!! Where’s the student-loan-cancellation-medicare-for-all-legal-weed-single-origin-espresso-in-every-pot bill??? I WANT IT NOW!!!”

Still more cogent than the splinter competition; which millennial can eye-roll, shrug, and “both parties are the same” with the most effusive disdain.
