Being of part Japanese descent and living a good chunk of my life there, I’m not surprised. It’s not only their engineering prowess and work ethic, but attitudes and responses to problems and disasters. Japan is arguably the very worst nation on the planet for natural disasters. They are infamous for earthquakes, but…

I sincerely hope my live in girlfriend does not read this helplessly boring list

The extreme political editorializing on this site is getting old quickly. This may be news to you, but 47% of the country sees things differently than you. Marginalizing half your readerbase is not a good business model.

Potential Buyer: “Hmm, it can cross a stream you say?”

Maybe I’m missing something, but I feel like this post is a weird attempt to take issue with Falahee’s statement despite the fact that there is nothing wrong with it.

Case in point...

Everything is scary nowadays, isn’t it? That’s what being over-nurtured will do to you.

Nothing to prove those Trumpkin conspiracy theorists wrong like an unaccountable group of liberal tech workers picking and choosing what news is “fake” on a major information sharing platform.

Yeah, I’m going to be THAT guy. Why the fuck is this on Gizmodo?

To me this is like saying that the supermarket is responsible for making sure Weekly World News or the National Enquirer reporting is true. There needs to be some personal responsibility when reading “news”. Some obscure wordpress site is OBVIOUSLY not a reliable news source.

TBH I think it’s possible to address the concerns of the white working class while firmly holding that racism is unacceptable. Left-liberals tend to be very big picture thinkers who love ideological purity, but the Democratic Party’s coalition is a big tent and we should make it bigger. A 50 state solution that…

Get over it please. I didn’t like either one of them...but it’s done. It’s time for Americans to work together and get along.

This is an especially idiotic hot taek.

They have been condescended to, called racist and sexist for the last 8 years. Weird they didn’t fall in line with the liberals.

“It can be hard to put your finger on exactly what you fear most about the rise of Donald Trump: the racism? The sexism? The xenophobia? The profoundly dangerous lack of judgment?”

You really going to demonize me because I liked neither Trump or Clinton and voted for the Libertarian ticket with the hope of expanding a two party system to add more alternatives? I understand you are demoralized with the results, but these sorts of tantrums and talking in absolutes that condemn people with…

Shutting down continued discussion on issues that Clinton is flawed on is dangerous. It was important to continue discussion on issues that Obama was and is flawed on (drone bombings, deportation, etc). It was also important to continue discussion on issues that Kennedy was flawed on.

What’s the point of this article? Plenty of these are perfectly fine comments to make about an insane election. Some of them are stupid, sure, but a bunch aren’t. What’s the criteria for being a “bad” tweet?

Evidently, Gizmodo’s guide to completely avoiding the election should also include completely avoiding Gimzodo altogether, considering that there’s five election articles currently on the first page alone. Including live blog coverage.
