They never asked themselves if the memes caused the mistrust or if the mistrust caused the memes. They just chose to assume that the memes were the cause, not the effect.

But this article wasn’t trying to figure out why people don’t like Kamala Harris. It was about what Kamala Harris thought of a very popular (and negative) meme about her and if she had any plans to tackle it. The campaign’s response was to mention Tulsi Gabbard (the last person on my mind re: this meme) and suggest…
This 100%. The article is credulously predicated on the idea that some critical mass of internet users understood “Kamala is a cop” to mean, like, literally that she’s a cop. Or that she REALLY bid adieu to a bus full of prison-bound mothers with a wave and a touch to the heart. I mean, to even include that latter…
You could’ve just asked people in the breakroom - educated, reasonably informed multiracial group of millennial people on the left - why they didn’t support her for president. They didn’t - we didn’t. “Kamala is a cop” was widely understood to be shorthand referencing her prosecutorial record instead of just a low-info…
Honestly, it’s time. Elizabeth Warren needs her own in depth story. This is just the feminist blog to do so.
But, but, but he speaks Spanish (sort of). Isn’t that enough to sway Latinx voters to support Buttigieg? He’s literally doing everything he can to get their votes. /s
WHO * IS * ON * TEAM * PETE * AND * WHY?!
I really want to disqualify him on inexperience alone (mayor of South Bend compared to senate/gubernatorial vets). To say nothing of his centrist, unoriginal positions..
When Pete Buttigieg adopts consultant approved listening posture, what does he hear?
Quiz:
And while a large part of the explanation for his low polling numbers are his decidedly milquetoast politics—many young black and Latinx voters are Bernie fans
Hey Twitter, that wasn’t so hard.
I just want to know where the batshit idea that Omar shared info with Iran came from. I could probably find it if I went down a rabbit hole, but I care about myself and my search history way too much for that. Why are people just making shit up now?
Ha! It’s funny ’cos it’s non-rhotic.
White woman harassing a woman of colour online.
This would make me laugh or at least giggle. Farts are funny! Also coming from someone like him makes it all the more funny.

When I was a kid there were times we lived on oats and bread. I remember pretending the bread was pizza. For a big treat sometimes we had raisins or store bought pound cake with strawberry yogurt as “frosting”. Worse than the going hungry, though, is how we’re made to feel ashamed every time we go to the food bank or…
I feel like the demographics of eating in American have shifted a lot over the past 20 or so years. I have to wonder if it’s an even more recent shake-up due to Cheetolini. For many, he’s supposed to be the archetypal rich person and he unabashedly wolfs down KFC, McDonald’s and crappy pizza, washing it down with…
Reminds me of an uncle, greeting me at a family function after I had noticeably packed on some weight: “Well, you’re looking...prosperous.” As savage a putdown as I’ve ever been subject to.
