They’ve been railroaded by people who see government as a bludgeon.

Good. People don’t immigrate without permission because they’re devious, they almost always do it because they’re poor/in a desperately bad situation. That so many people are unable to imagine themselves in this situation and have sympathy is a massive moral failure.

You may have seen this already, but if not, it’s really important.

Really sorry you have to go through this. Hope you get the care you need.

I could manage that for maybe a week at this point and then I’d just lose it. You can have it. Stay warm.

Haha yeah, how can anybody buy a pea coat when they’ve got to invest in a down parka and bib snowsuit and those blompy boots that are rubber on the bottom and leather on top...

Yeah, it just gets to be too hard after a while. I guess a lot of the people at the camp are from the area and know what they’re doing, but even so, yikes.

And very good long underwear, that you will never want to take off. It’s not like NYC doesn’t have winters, but I’m from upstate NY, and it’s effing Arctic there sometimes. I have learned to stay in coastal zones, however more expensive they may be...

They’re blind to it-in certain kinds of people. Dare to be a woman who tries to assert a baseline level of agency, and they’ll see narcissism where it isn’t.

I feel like an awful lot of Americans are blind to abusive personalities. As a culture, we excuse too many things in white men. “He’s going to change!” Wut, he’s 70 years old and has yet to take real responsibility for his actions, and seems to have a number of pretty significant dysfunctions. I don’t know how we…

They won’t unless we make them. Everybody call your reps-especially the Rs-when you oppose their actions. Don’t make it easy for them.

Yeah, I think you’re right-the backlash of de-donalding the presidency before he gets in won’t be pretty, but I’d rather do it now than undo whatever Jeff Sessions does as AG, etc. etc. with all the other ghouls they have going into cabinet positions. Which BTW, plz call your senators and tell them not to confirm the…

I think we can turn Megyn Kelly. Keep working on it, mah friends. And also write our own textbook. I would’ve preferred for reason to win on its own, but there’s some talent in these here comment sections-I know we can propaganda.

False equivalence is a disease of conservatives. We need to develop a vaccine...problem is, I had the same schooling they did and it didn’t work. I don’t even know what to do with this.

AAAUgh. They mean the image they had in their imagination from a re-capitulated re-warmed version of a tradition that they don’t really understand.

He didn’t from his own conviction, it would appear.

My flum is also oxed. we need an oxed flum society.

Free speech does not include threats or sexual humiliation or defamation. Free speech does not include threats or sexual abuse or defamation. Free speech does not...

If somebody over there says he can make money, he will, no doubt. Look-everybody, please call your reps, especially the republicans. They need to be told, loudly and repetitively, that they cannot control this person and they need to address his illegal conflicts of interest NOW, or they are ALL going to be booted…

It turns out to actually be a highly putrescent sewer that is overseen by the ancient god of destruction MAGA.
