Supporting Hillary Clinton (as I intend to do in a general election if she gets the nomination) doesn’t make anyone a right-wing apologetic. Defending neoliberal economics and cynical dog-whistle identity politics? That does. I’m commenting on the turn this commentariat has taken, when it comes to defending every…

“It’s like you think magical things will happen.” Basically everyone’s right-wing aunt on Facebook, except now it’s a liberal talking-point.

I ACTUALLY READ THIS PIECE! It’s good. It taps into the process very well, and it specifically mentions the identity politicking we saw in 2008 against Obama—the same kind we’re seeing now.

Guess what: Workers give exactly zero dollars to Republicans and neoliberal Democrats, and those groups routinely do absolutely nothing to help workers. Workers give their money to others, because they expect a return on that investment: Improved wages. Corporations give their money for the same reason—a return on…

I dunno what happened to Jezebel since I got re-grayed, but it seems that right-wing apologetics have taken over and a $350,000-per-chair fundraiser—even unholy by Republican standards—is now just “how the sausage gets made”.

Were there principled liberal days? I feel like us liberals gave up decades ago, and made the way for centrism that consistently cows to the demands of the increasingly-maddening right wing.

Holy absolute shit.

He just released his tax plan and I hear it’s good, but I can’t make heads of tails of it:

Charismatic, no. Talented, no. Unique, almost certainly.

Check his Facebook: Jeff Jackson is making one post every 30 minutes, trying to get the word out about this authoritarian overreach of state government. He’s doing great work, and there are few in government (fewer still in NC’s government) capable of speaking up for civil rights in this divisive age as the political…

Everyone killed by ISIS should meet your criteria for being true victims of ISIS. The political far-right are the ones trying to decide which deaths count (specifically non-Muslim deaths), or act like someone other than ISIS is responsible for these atrocities.

Right. But these true victims include mostly Muslims, and your side won’t ever admit it. Because you don’t care that they’re being exterminated, and you can pretend that—as a feminist—I should want for the extermination of non-feminists. I don’t, and that’s bullshit. Feminists don’t want non-feminists to be bombed or…

If Sanders’ ISIS talk is too neoconservative for ya, I hope y’all didn’t watch the AIPAC speeches.

Obama should’ve ended all diplomatic relations with Cuba, by sucker-punching Castro right in the chops, and rushed home to do his Constitutional duty and close the Belgian border with his bare hands.

The victims of ISIS are mostly Syrians and Yemenis and Turks and Libyans, and are almost entirely Muslim. As for true victims—the ones that actually count, by your estimation—that’s anyone’s guess.

Successful people piss me right off.

Nolo contedre—my friends and even my detractors!—that’s what it is. Make no mistake, we’d love a verdict that allows for—look! Every American is tired of the liberal—the conservative—the gun-toting redbloodeds, like a Muslim would. The rapid advance of Islamic, call it what it is. That’s why, for a verdict that I have…

Well, the evil Zionist Bilderberg Group has concocted Malthusian plans in order to subtly control the population of the subject humanoids. In this way, the lizardmen can more easily destroy our weakened militaries. Ten years after each human is afflicted with autism and the CIA-invented AIDS virus, the ships from Vega…

I gave my son the autism vaccine, and now he has measles! I just can’t win...
