I completely agree with you, which is why I don’t think it was worth creating a rift between the party and Tulsi’s supporters or letting pointless feuds take up headline space. If Tulsi were actually a threat it would be different, but as it stands, the best strategy was to ignore her and let her campaign die a…

He’s always crotchety when pressed by the press. He sports very strong “you kids get off my lawn” energy.

I want her to stop dropping bombs and creating distractions. Even when I agree with her, it’s unproductive. I realize she’s a private citizen now, but she has a huge platform and she needs to be more responsible with her words. This isn’t a new thing. Her campaign operated like this as well- alienating voters and…

Your comment touched a nerve for me. One of my all time pet peeves is how so many men use the “I don’t know how” excuse to avoid cooking and cleaning, as if women are born with the ability to do all those things. We have to look up how to make potato salad on youtube just like you would have to if you weren’t so lazy, …

We don’t need this kind of petty and divisive behavior. I would also like to point out that the Clinton camp always engaged in this sort of thing, even as they constantly projected their scorched earth petty vindictiveness onto Sanders and his supporters. Mind you, I’m not trying to place blame on one side, but just…

I genuinely fear for the outcome of the election if Biden is the nominee and find the manufactured electability narrative which surrounds him frighteningly out of touch with the political moment. I hope this endorsement means that the old guard is waking up to the fact that name recognition alone does not a good…

He looks like a doll that’s been animated by a malevolent spirit. His skin...it’s just so...bloodless.

So, as someone who grew up poor/working class and did better than my parents I understand both sides here. No one is attacking education or success, they’re concerned that people for whom the system worked will be out of touch with the needs and values of people for whom the system did not work. Because those who have…

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I feel that either the centrist leaning media or more right leaning campaigns are trying to play on the left’s propensity for cannibalizing itself in order to help centrist candidates. Who does it help if Sanders stans feel mischaracterized and Warren stans feel attacked?…

Black and hispanic/latino Americans make up a larger percentage of blue collar workers than white Americans, FYI.

Collectively, the Sanders and Warren crowds make up the majority of democratic voters, which means the majority of democratic voters favor progressive transformation. Right leaning Dems know this and that’s why there’s been such encouragement to infighting among these two bases. The only way an inferior candidate like…

Thank you. To me, Warren is serving rather mild mannered cool auntie energy. “Angry” is the opposite of how I perceive her personality. I’m perplexed that someone even thought of this.

Knock it off with the concern trolling. In Europe, you’re generally considered an adult at 16. America is an outlier in this regard. Kids are legally allowed to leave school and join the workforce at 15 in Sweden. What she’s doing is her choice and it’s her right to make that choice for herself. She’s also making good…

The Children of the Corn attack was obviously a swipe at Greta’s neuro difference. That’s the unholy depths that these full-grown people have sunk to.

On one hand, the depths to which adults have sunk in their efforts to bully this child have shaken my faith in humanity. On the other hand, it’s delicious how much she clearly terrifies them.

So I guess she’ll have to be a one-term president then.

I’m disappointed that suddenly ageism seems to be OK, even amongst people who otherwise hold progressive views. Rejecting someone based on their age is unjust and discriminatory.

Not many people have enough the fight to kick people out of their father’s funeral on the day. Meghan McCain is a miserable and disingenuous toad, but this is perhaps the one and only thing I’ll take her side on. What kind of absolute monster shows up at a funeral she wasn’t invited to after her father did everything…

I don’t agree with Pamela Anderson or her regressive views on women. It’s pretty obvious that Assange allowed his platform to be weaponized. That said:

I watched the first few episodes, and while the show didn’t hold my interest, Jude Law’s ability to embody his character’s depth of dark existential emptiness and psychopathic tendencies is unnerving. You never quite know if the Pope is a complex character capable of faith and redemption or if he’s just a catholic…
