Ever notice that every picture of Ted Cruz ever is his o-face?

This is his O-face

He says he was hacked but there’s actual video of him liking the tweet

I love her, don’t get me wrong, but some kind of doubling effect was added to her vocal mic, so this was 100% was rehearsed and even sound checked in advance.

Aping Glenn Greenwald and pretending you’re smarter than everyone else isn’t very original or clever. It’s standard internet fare, really. Look up the appeal to authority fallacy when you get a minute from trying to look “wise”.

Litigiousness is bad, granted, but concern troll diagnosing a child through a TV screen is absolutely horrifying, and I’m ashamed of my “side” for dragging that poor boy into this. He is ten.

It seems to me that things have gotten so Pavlovian in the feminist movement that someone as cynical and fact free as Kellyanne Conway can (cynically, in a manner free of fact) claim sexism and “feminists” will automatically back her, even though doing so is antithetical to literally everything they supposedly stand…

Actually, in my opinion, the hazing thing is a solid example of why most politicians are crazy. In what world do you walk through a river of shit, day after day, for 20 years to get what you want and still think it’s worth it?

I can’t abide people who cannot, or will not, discern between levels of “bad”. The “lesser of two evils is still evil” nonsense.

Your attitude of taking harmless peccadillos and conflating them with actual racism ironically alienates a lot of people

Can you be more specific? How is it “more than a little racist”? Where’s the “bigotry”? I’m genuinely curious.

That’s what I mean by “insufficiently deifies”. Even the links in the post above talk about her, quite literally, as a “God”. Big G.

Man, you really have to dig to find this a problem. There’s almost nothing going on in this, at all. It’s incredibly banal. It’s like a celebrity selfie.

I cannot express the level of discomfort one feels (ok, I felt) watching “Weiner”. It is the most remarkable political documentary I have ever seen. It’s absolute insanity that the film was supposed to be capturing his comeback (and did actually have a feeling of resurgence for a good portion of the film, he was ahead…

In the context of the whole “running for President” thing it changes pretty easily to shocking.

“I think the coconuts you found for dinner are terrible. What? I’m just giving my opinion. They suck. Look, I just say how I feel, ok?”

Team Luann! I admit she has her faults, obvs, but ever since she joyfully cackled at Aviva’s LEG a couple seasons ago she catapulted to Best Housewife Ever. It was the most genuine moment in Housewives history. I see the real Luann underneath all the layer of Countess and she is actually “cool”! I wish she had enough…

It’s usually the right that is portrayed as anti-science, and historically that’s true, but the American left is barreling full bore down the mountain towards that same pseudoscience gully, what with the growing anti-vax crowd and the enormous anti-GMO crowd. And one can argue that misinformation in those two areas…

Bourgeois capitulation with the historic immiseration of women isn’t feminism either. More women are forced to cover than not. The true subversive political action would be to free oneself from the burqa.

France is a secular nation. They ban ALL religious symbols in public schools, not just Muslim ones. Jewish skullcaps and Christian crosses are also banned.
