Democrats can’t allow Trump to fill a Supreme Court vacancy during the last year of his presidency.

Gee, the one unifying theme in all these was a dislike and mistrust of Hillary. Something much of the left agrees with. Someone remind me why the DNC pretty much anointed her as the nominee again?

In the comics, Swinton’s character is a stereotypical “wise Asian” character, which many people find offensive. Rewriting that role as a white woman removes that, and creates a role for a woman. And then, they wrote a new Asian role and cast an Asian actor. No Asian actors lost work, a role for a woman was created, a…

That house Asian thing is particularly bullshit when Cho has put herself out there as a critic of Swinton getting the role. It’s like, “I speak for Asians when I say we’re upset at you.” “Can you explain why you think people are upset about this thing, so I can understand.” “This bitch thinks I speak for Asians, fuck…

Cho has made herself one of the main voices of this debate and was publicly criticizing the movie and Swinton. If someone does that, they can’t then claim that if someone wants to talk about it with them that they are being turned to as the only Asian in the room. She has set herself up as an expert on this issue for…

So... Don’t buy anything. Got it.

Here is a required disclaimer to ensure my point is taken seriously and not dismissed as the ravings of some misguided Trump supporter: I voted for Hillary. I was not and am not terribly fond of her, but she was the objectively more qualified candidate and a demonstrably better human being. I don’t vote for…

More to the point, the things “everybody knows” are often bullshit.

The fact that it happens doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be some restraint. The fact that people take office stationary shouldn’t be seen as justification to start hauling off office furniture and computers.

And even then, it depends on which family member it is. Trust me on this one.

Easy. Some Americans view poverty to be a sign of weakness or some other laziness and tend to blame those afflicted by it. Too, some Americans believe that “God” awards everyone with what they deserve, so, if you’re poor and overworked, it’s probably your fault somehow. Clearly this is fallacy and true weakness lies…

Its the Just World Fallacy and a cognitive negativity bias. Look them up. They basically explain the entire GOP establishment.

I honestly don’t understand how people can be so cruel. Just gleefully, unabashedly horrible.

But here is the problem....to be in the fabled 1%, you have to earn around 450k per year

You think success was frowned upon in the 1950s, when the marginal tax rate was 90%?

To me, it looks like the wealthy are doing their part…

Why is that worse than today, when most people simply have no hopes of the tides rising?

Success wouldn’t be frowned upon under wealth distribution. People would love seeing people succeed because that rising tide would raise all ships.

And if you give a lot of poor people the opportunity to earn more money, increasing their demand for goods and services, then rich corporations will take their business elsewhere.

Yeah, but if you tax rich people at high rates, nobody will want to work hard to become rich or start businesses or create or invent. This is precisely why there were no rich people, businesses, or innovation back when the marginal tax rate was much higher for the wealthy.
