What did all those generations of American soldiers die for since 1776 if not for a rigid suppression of dissent and absolute loyalty of all citizens to federal power?

Yeah, AV Club has really gone downhill.

oh my goooddd I forgot how great that exchange was.

She was pretty good on Children’s Hospital too.

Erinn Hayes is funny and talented and I’m sure she can do better than Kevin Can Wait. Everything will be OK.

No matter how many Transformers there are, you will always have the GoBots.

It’s not about the troops. Not everything about the anthem or flag is directly connected to THE TROOPS. Haha, what the hell is with you guys and the fuckin’ troops?

Why would it matter if he didn’t respect the troops, though? Why is this even a conversation we’re having? The troops have shit-all to do with these displays.

The more important note is that kneeling during the anthem is not intended to show disrespect for troops, nor does it actually disrespect troops.

As myself and numerous other vets have pointed out, our oath is “to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” It has nothing to do with flag, or the National Anthem, or public fucking sporting events. People who want to make this “about the troops” are…

Saying something’s easy to hate doesn’t mean one hates it or that hate for it is justified.

One of the primary criticisms leveled against Rick And Morty fans is that they mistakenly valorize Rick as a sort of uber-nerd, a shit-talking asshole who’s too smart to abide by normal social rules. Rick is always right, and when he isn’t, he still comes out on top, probably with a catchphrase and an episode-ending…

there was a great comment/idea about why nebraska sucks ass now in (i think) a SBNation article. excuse me if I am way off on this.

I really like the show, but its fandom is one of the worst I’ve ever seen. A bunch of people seem to think that the show endorses Rick’s behavior and philosophy and...no, it realllllly doesn’t.

I hope so.

Lens flare and retread complaints, that’s what I call a fresh take!

Sure, shitkicker.

Ugh, Ellen, NO. When someone tells you they are afraid of something, it is cruel to subject them to it because YOU think it would be funny.

we [whites] on the left want to pretend

Shit like this shows that upper class whites can be racist as hell too. I know we on the left want to pretend it’s all the confederate flag waving, uneducated yokels that are racists, but it’s middle class and rich folks too. It’s classist to assume racism is a poor man’s game.
