Well, Actually, the Catholic Church does not reject “faith alone” ...

We know it's not a ref ego thing - it's no coincidence all the overturns stopped at once, after week 2. And I think leaving the rule on the books but refusing to enforce it is an admirable way of trolling whiny fans. I applaud the nfl's course of action.

Somebody should have told simba that.

If you think a closed coffin could stop mike pence's insatiable lust, well, I guess we can all hope he never winds up at your funeral ...

What a pantload. Being american doesn’t prevent one from understanding the issues at stake, thanks for that little piece of ad hominem fallacy, nor are the underlying issues so complex as to be incomprehensible, nor does the complexity of the issue justify defaulting to the chinese govt position/mainland chinese…

Hopefully those kids are less cowardly than you are. Putting one's safety at risk is often a laudable course of action, one to be encouraged. 

“If the dude had protested IRL on his own time, they wouldn’t have done anything to him.”

Sadly, it didn't prevent you from posting. Maybe next time.

... or Maduro or Castro. One side’s bad boys are more normalized than the other’s.

I think it needs to be pointed out here that the military, the security professionals were anti-torture. Opting in to torture was not a national security decision, misguided or otherwise, it was a political theater decision. It was about striking a blow against liberalism - a successful one, one that prefigures the…

A century ago high school graduation as a measure of social standing was more like college graduation is today.

So he went off and did the rest of the delivery run with unwashed bathroom hands? From one horror to the next ...

“No they shouldn’t, because I have the requisite education, experience, and skill set to command a salary at my particular profession, just as you likely do.”

That would be an interesting contrarian take, one that might be worth publishing even if it ultimately didn’t succeed, but it’s not the slant this article took. That, not the position the headline suggests, is the problem with the headline - it doesn't adequately represent the article.

It's your bad? So change the headline, maybe? "That's my bad" is meaningless. And it doesn't matter whether the headline landed or not, what matters is that it did not adequately represent the article. I came here expecting a contrarian take on the subject and came away disappointed.

Your comment is ironic because at the moment there’s a pretty successful chinese divestment movement going on, one that reaches all the way to the white house, one you apparently haven’t taken notice of as something significant (even though it is more significant as a world economic/political issue than bds by orders…

When merely firing off a tweet and skulking away is enough to threaten your career, then yes, that alone can be enough to qualify as “standing up for a cause”. Note, if it was some ordinary hong kong/chinese citizen firing off a tweet and skulking away you'd never have considered making this argument. Is kaepernick an…

Like the Chinese military hasn’t already hacked your servers, lol.

The nfl was willing to sacrifice kaep, and they were only threated by a collection of chuckleheads too disorganized and incompetent to accomplish anything. The chinese government is serious business. Like, right now deadspin has an article up saying

Sadly, it only feels that way ... The truth is far more depressing.
