Dunno, but fortunately, he didn’t shoot himself in the foot with his antics.

Again, two consenting adults. She knew fooling around with a married man was bad, and he knew fooling around on his wife was bad. Kinda creepy for an older guy to do so, but she also knew he was low-hanging fruit and made a concerted effort to get his attention sexually. Lewinsky was no gingham-clad innocent from the

Jack Klugman is in the background. Lord knows what was going on here.

Seems to me the point of All in the family was the opportunity to put on the table for examination Archie’s (America’s) issues: (racism, sexism, etc.). And if I recall correctly, Archie rarely came out feeling good about his bigoted positions. Carol O’Connor mastered the task of showing both steadfastness in his

I own a nice little company where racists and bigots either keep their stupid mouths shut or get shown the door. No one has to live in a purity bubble, they just have to be smart enough to not run their mouths. You know, like goddamn adults.

I am having an even bigger problem with people trying to equate the drivel that was Roseanne with All in the Family.

No, I mean She died. It doesn’t hurt to be an actual human being and it costs nothing to call people by their preferred pronouns.

She doesn’t. There’s enough racism in the world without presuming it where it’s not.

Our police need higher standards of recruitment and training, but I have to disagree with this statement. Last summer, after the lifeguards left, I witnessed patrolling police save the lives of three kids drowning in the surf.

Fair point, much sharper than mine, and thank you for this really very good and useful analysis. Feet on the ground and shoulders to the wheel make all the difference, especially when the stakes are high and people’s lives are touched directly. I know of several campaigns here in the US that are being managed by

The campaign wasn’t won or lost on dark ads. It was won on the doorsteps. Over the last number of years, in the middle of organising fundraisers, media stunts, and demonstrations, campaign groups went about educating people to understand abortion and to be able to speak on it.

Not to be too awkward on this but the situations are slightly different.

Fake Christianity seems to be our chief export.

If true, this means the people of Ireland successfully pushed back against the kind of intense blitzkrieg of dark-money-funded agitprop that saddled Britain with Brexit and the poor old USA with Donald and his fascist cohort: the old Cambridge Analytica crowd, whatever they’re calling themselves now—-Kanto, in

Still shook.
