so first of all it’s kind of idiotic to expect a random programmer to have the solution that will fix tech as a whole.

secondly the reality is no one listens to women (e.g. me) or minorities, especially in tech. the people who have to want to make the change are the people in power. if i had any actual ability to…

it’s a problem that needs to be solved in that people who are in the industry who are not male and white deal with racist and sexist bullshit every day.

Google the reasons and you’ll get the answers.

Social interest is a code for our civil rights. It’s not a secondary issue.

The message was there. They aren’t listening. They got their news from their facebook feed. Hilary is the devil and did something wrong, they aren’t sure what but something. Taxes will go down, but not for them they couldn’t be bothered with the details. So screw their dumb asses.

Well now we’re putting a “gotta sell it to Pennsylvania” blanket over any overtones of racism or misogyny. See also: the stupid ass post about Ellison competing for DNC chair on Deadspin. Funny how he’s young, populist, and a new face on the scene (all the complaints against Pelosi), but there’s something ... else…

What we need most in the next four years if Trump is elected, are minority leaders well-versed in parliamentary procedure, with a book filled with favors owed to them, and an unwavering commitment to progressive ideals.

Preach it.

No, it’s not. We offer the best policies for blue collar workers, across the board. The ones that vote against that just to register how much they hate foreigners are not the ones we need to be trying to retain. We need to appeal to independents, and try to turn out the vote among younger voters, instead of…

Uh huh.

Duuuude. Yes. This. I feel like such a cynic I’m like, does she really think she’ll get this much or is it just one last ditch effort to raise money she can later say “oh man well that didn’t happen, sorry guys!” And leave with a chunk of change in her pocket

She’s about 2 million votes ahead at this point, but like I said, Clinton will be the grownup in the room (again) and refuse to contest the results. That won’t (and shouldn’t) stop an investigstion into whether or not there was hacking, but even if there was, this election is over.

...someone pissed in a coffee mug? IDK, that sounds pretty crazy.

Yes, an unelectable candidate with over 2 million more votes than her opponent.

We’re chasing the same kind of MacGyver-level plots to get Trump out and Clinton in at this point. The kind of things the BernieOrBusters kept hanging on to: Bernie will come back and win California. Clinton’s delegates will defect. The supers will defect. If at least three Hillary electors change to Sanders post…

Yeah, I’m not going to apologize. One bit of effort likely brought on by an attack of conscience doesn’t erase all the pandering to anti-science nuts or the cozying up to dictators, let alone the fact that third parties in this country seem to care more about ego campaigns than grassroots organizing or like,…

I would love this to work, but people should still be cautious of Stein. Make sure the money goes where it’s intended to go, and seriously press them on that.

It would be very easy for her people to turn around and say, “Damn, all that terrible election legalese and corruption really ruined our chances of getting the…

I want to see the Greens do some data mining and identify the most Green-friendly county in America. Then take all the money they would spend on the next presidential election and spend it there on local and county races.

I wonder how her pal Putin feels about this. She should probably google symptoms of polonium poisoning so she’ll know what to watch out for.

she only raised $3.5m for herself over the entire election
