He actually compared him to Christopher Hitchens, which like... come on. That’s just pissing on the man’s grave.

The campus community weren’t the ones rioting or suppressing speech. Cal administrators had actually rejected the petitions of over 100 faculty & students to forbid the event, and had even put on added campus security personnel to protect the damned speaker & his entourage. The antifa rioters came in from outside the…

Boo hoo! Poor widdle fascists!

Wow. I really disagree, too. Raucous street protest and a certain amount of property damage to things that are insured or belong to institutions does not fall under my definition of “violence.”

Fuck tolerance. Tolerance was never my watchword. The right-wing put that label on my beliefs. I never “tolerated” people of different sexualities or gender identities or heritages or religious stances than mine. To tolerate something is to endure something that is objectionable. Maybe a conservative tolerates those…

The students protested. Anarchists who had nothing to do with the school rioted. Keep up.

“But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other…

Bullshit. Hatred, bigotry and advocating violence against others isn’t a viewpoint. And if someone wants to come to home/community/university and espouse that bullshit and pull dangerous stunts like doxxing trans and gay locals they deserve to be met by violence. I don’t have to be tolerant of someone else’s…

It was hilarious watching people say that Maher was totally gonna pwn Milo prior to this nonsense. I’m sitting there thinking, they’re pretty much on the same sides of a lot of these issues. ‘Political correctness’ is Maher’s bête noire, while also having dumb views on Islam and being completely fucking clueless about…

I’ve been saying all this for a while. Bill Maher is not who I had wanted him to be and I wish I was surprised that he softballed this.

It was a disheartening interview, but even Bill jumped onto the fuck-Milo train in the Overtime segment posted to YouTube. It’s especially worth a watch to see Larry Wilmore and Malcom Nance take Milo down, showing the man-child is clearly in over his head.

It was brutal last xmas finding out how many of my family members voted for him. It was also brutal how openly they spouted racist bullshit. That shit was never there growing up, not even the xmas before when most were in agreement DJT was a fucking idiot. Never discount the rationalization people will go through to…

You mean the guy who turned himself into a ghost so he could fuck a virgin but not really fuck a virgin who would give birth to himself so he could kill himself but not really kill himself and then come out of a cave and be like, “Just kidding you guys, now you know that you have to stop sinning because I killed…

Here To Stay

Hey, Texas. Fuck you!!! I say that as a person who lives in Texas. In the news here they keep saying the majority of people arrested are criminals. But they aren’t releasing any details and the few people I have seen on the news only had minor offenses.

I’m a bit confused that what you’ve said here ^^ is not more screamingly obvious.

If you (universal “you”, of course) become a knee-jerk defensive person when you hear those terms, and you focus on the words by themselves, as opposed to the conduct that triggered their use — that’s a good half of your problem right there. :/

Your comment is probably not going to get highlighted by this guy - he’s a notorious sexism and racism denialist on these boards - but one of the reasons I appreciate Ben Rothenberg (besides the facts that he’s covered tennis for that minimal-circulation rag the New York Times for, you know, years) is that he puts…
