I’m sure that he could lose the primary to Nixon. He’s reviled across NYS. Problem that I always with Nixon is that she has such an NYC centric platform, which is also a platform that will hold no water in the Upstate counties who feel that NYC is sucking up all of the state’s resources (they forget that NYC also…

Ewww! Smart? That means she’ll demand equal pay and complain about being hit on! How unlikable!

There will always be studies explaining to women how it is their own fault they are getting screwed.

Easy solution: Eliminate any identifying information from the application. They will instead have barcodes on them. Hiring managers will only be able to see information that is actually relevant to the job. Once they pick the most qualified applications, they scan the barcode into third-party software that sets up an…

I am trying not to be super salty about this because any improvement would be good but for fuck’s sake. It is REALLY HARD for me to be rooting for better paternity policies for men (especially in other countries) when the maternity policies here in the US are still a goddamn crapshoot. I know it’s not the point of the…

Oh, jesus, enough with this baloney. In 2018, it doesn’t make you look world-weary or wise by engaging in these false equivalences, it just make you look intellectually lazy. There are real, important differences between the policies that Democrats and Republicans enact that have incredibly profound effects on the…

Ok, I don’t support Benjamin Netanyahu or Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people.

The article is broadminded and offers a fair representation of Mallory’s relationship with NOI, why her position (or lack of) is problematic, and defense for her lack of statement.

On a basic level, you conflate anti-semitism and anti-Israel. What you called the height of hypocrisy sounds more like keeping in line…

KimYe also aren’t leaders of a major intersectional movement. Regardless of your stance on Tamika Mallory, how are the two even remotely comparable?

Respectfully, fuck that noise. Anyone that said anything about black people close to what Farrakhan has said about Jews, and you’d be calling for his head. Anyone that came out and publicly supported that person - you’d be calling for her head.

Look, cults manage to do good work sometimes. They pick up broken people and put them back together, people no one else wants to bother with. That doesn’t make them not a cult. It doesn’t make the shit they spew true or not dangerous.

Religions, man.

You know, I generally believe in ignoring trolls, but this is just offensive and disgusting. Piss off and troll somewhere else you slimy creature. This comment is sickening and makes light of rape.

Just for context, this bill doesn’t keep the CFPB from collecting ALL data that might help it identify discrimination, it would exempt banks that make fewer than 500 mortgages a year. Maybe that doesn’t make a difference, but it would be interesting to see the data that had been collected from those banks so far to…

How many rubles did this post cost?

If HRC won, this case would not be before the Supreme Court at all. The plaintiffs withdrew the case when Scalia died because a tie wouldn’t have helped them. They only brought the case back because of Gorsuch.

“We removed Justices after FDR tried to pack the court”

I’ll add in the caveat that not everyone who should have appreciated how dire the situation was, did have that understanding.

Yeah, I’m a little surprised at HamNo’s assertion that “Organized Labor Is In a Life and Death Struggle. Be Very Scared” — it’s dead. It died at the Presidential Election of 2016.

I sincerely doubt any Democrat spouts that line. Most if not all left leaning people know where their benefits come from and the history of unions in this country. Why do they know this? Because unlike Republicans they haven’t been gorging on Fox News for twenty years telling them how Unions are the devil and the…
