I’d certainly agree with three years ago. But like you said, Univision killed the unique content and verve, making this new pro-synergy alignment to CMS/UI/Comments pretty much the nails in the coffin. At least we had a unique, however flawed, community before. Now it’s just a hodgepodge of who hates who and for

For anyone that is both super excited (we get to finally see the final chapter!) but also super bummed (it is the final chapter )about the finale of twin peaks, I do have one bit of good pre-finale news to deliver:

I guess a lot of us are spending the weekend sad about how the AV Club we loved is wiped and gone. Kinja is hell, and you lied to us about how extreme the changes would be.

Politics Corner - DACA Decision Deferred edition. While the rumored announcement didn’t happen today (despite Trump saying this morning ‘maybe today, maybe after the weekend’) a lot of major DACA news did occur. First off, my gut tells me that the reason Trump didn’t make an announcement today is that he hasn’t made

Especially since said redundancy is driven by that association with a collection of garbage websites that we all stayed on the AVC in an attempt to avoid.

Hey, now!

Hey, I may be ugly and hate-filled, but I... um, what was that third thing you said?

Yo homie if you don’t like this porta-potty why you hanging out in it looking for a handjob?

You shouldn’t try to think while conscious. It’s not pretty on you.

You are a moral, ethical, strategic, logical triple negative walking zilch of a Tweet of a person. How righteous you are to take such a nuanced stand on fighting Nazis. Quite brave. Much logic, no hysteria. Bold life choices all around.

Now playing

Jesus F Christ. You are quibbling over words as you have zero argument.

That’s simply reductive. There is no excuse for bully behavior and instigating violence. As amusing and empowering it may be to imagine shouting ‘fuck a Nazi’ as the new YOLO and then doing something irresponsible, the truth is that the only proper time to assault people is when they’re a threat to other people.

Do you feel like you’re accomplishing something by making me into your opposition? Are you frustrated because you can’t effectively communicate with the people you’re actually opposed to, so you’re settling with whatever conflict you can create? Or did you just see an opportunity for an immature insult you couldn’t

I wasn’t talking about discourse with them, I was talking about broader discourse about racism and other social issues - which the violence only distracts from, and diminishes good people because of these violent, attention-seeking assholes who want to start fights.

The video was ‘Assembled by subMedia, a video production ensemble that “aims to promote anarchist and anti-capitalist ideas, and aid social struggles through the dissemination of radical films and videos.”’ The editing is going to be biased. I’m not defending the Nazis, because they’re abhorrent people and the

They’re not “just as bad” - but they actually help the Nazis achieve their goals, and perpetuate violence. They are enemies of productive civil discourse and human rights. So, in that respect, quite similar to the Nazis and Republicans.

Violent thugs are not better because you agree with them. Claiming they are only shows that you are a violent thug yourself. Or want to be if you were not such a coward.

“Revvin’ up them ovens, boys...”

Well, I suppose the Obama administration was a piece of shit, because Politico just leaked that Antifa were considered terrorists by the FBI and DHS years ago. I suppose Trevor Noah deserves to “have his face rubbed in shit” for calling them Vegan ISIS last night. Grow up. They have turned Portland into America’s Most
