Yeah, as long as you just ignore the entire history of racist attacks against Obama, his family, and black people in general, this is technically correct.

“Yeah, but technically <insert strained excuse to ignore all context and history of the entire country to cover up obvious racism>” - You

With all due respect, stow that shit.

So, does that mean no one should stockpile food and supplies? If you don’t do this, what should you do instead? Where will you get food if not a stockpile?

“Coded as queer” isn’t derogatory, it’s just a kind of shitty fact about most of the “classic” Disney villains*. Being coded as queer doesn’t have to mean that the character is bad; it just means that the character is recognizably queer to other queer people and other audience members who pick up on such things, but…

I also like inventing people to be mad at.

If no one has prepared any supplies for after a collapse, no one will survive long enough to work together.

I am trying to figure out if the OP actually had anything constructive to contribute to a discussion of disaster preparedness, or if they were just saying “don’t bother doing anything, you’re just fucked if society collapses”. If it’s the former, I’d like to hear it; if the latter, then the comment is trolling.

Honest question: what exactly do you think you’re contributing with a comment like this?

Ah yes, that famously trivial strategy of “convince millions of people to move elsewhere for the sake of strategic voting”.

I disagree that they won’t change anyone’s vote. They certainly won’t win any votes from the sort of mushbrains who cheered on the insurrection, but they absolutely can win over the sort of mushbrains who still don’t understand what happened that day or why it was such a big deal. They’re not going to get the memo if…

“The overwhelming media coverage exposed the jurors — literally every day — to news demonizing Chauvin and glorifying Floyd, which was more than sufficient to presume prejudice”

Acting!

If Biden appeared to be even trying to deliver on even one of those promises, it would be better. The issue isn’t that he hasn’t delivered, it’s that he’s given up trying, or in some cases, done the exact opposite of what he said he’d do.

Religion does strange things to the human brain though - if someone genuinely believes that a particular religion is literally the one true religion, there is no real limit to what you can get them to do, good or bad, in service to it. Even if that religion debases, delegitimizes, or even outright vilifies them…

This, all day long. It’s absolutely mind-blowing how far out of their way they’ll go to praise any tiny speck of decency from Republicans, and how far they’ll bend over backwards to try in vain to compromise and win Republican votes, while actively telling their base to go fuck themselves.

I assumed the “her” in that statement was Warren, not Pelosi. Elizabeth Warren should be (but probably won’t be) the next president.

So, leaving aside the absolutely disgusting, homophobic part of your comment, this story is about a black child who was subjected to grief and suffering by a bigot on a train. Why wouldn’t they highlight it?

No, that’s literally what he said. He wouldn’t last a week if he wasn’t allowed to harass people. Super creepy.

I’m not convinced that’s 100% accurate; while it’s true that Republicans in the senate are for the most part beholden to donors (as are Dem senators), they’re not going against their own interests. The donors throw their support behind whichever Republican already wants the same things they do. In the house, I’m not…
