Exactly. Best to go big.

People who are against any sort of student debt forgiveness (who largely, but not entirely vote Republican) will hate him for even talking about student debt relief, regardless of whether or not it comes to pass.

I just find it disingenuous that we’re talking about Biden not being consistent on what exactly he’s been saying he’d do for almost a full year at this point.

According to Lending Tree as of January of this year, $10,000 cancellation will wipe out 35% of all current student debt and knock off at least 40% of another 27% — which accounts for 62% of all debt.

As the numbers show, public university tuition can rival private university tuition these days. Plus... as someone who attended a historically black college (private, like most of them are) and represents the countless black women who are having a disproportionately harder time climbing out of student loan debt...…

Being against college debt relief seems so short sighted, especially for the type of republican who only thinks about the “economy” Relieving student debt can only be good for the economy. People who were drowning in debt they would never pay off could fully participate, buy homes, buy other stuff, start a family, but…

I’m glad to hear lung cancer has won its battle with Rush Limbaugh.

I hope his death is painful. I hate him so damn much.

Really telling to me that he intentionally wore his “March for Our Lives” t-shirt in the one TV interview about the pillows that he promoted on his Twitter.

So I get the issue with him. Some of the people in the comments standing up for him are saying “well we live in a capitalist world and he needs to pay for rent and food, etc etc” except he’s a student, so he doesn’t need to be doing this to survive, especially because business starts require many thousands of dollars…

yeah, I agree the vehement anti-capitalist reaction was almost just as cringe

Yes, we all have the right to have an opinion about something a public figure does.

Time was told and survey says: Goofy.

overall this feels cringe.

Fellow survivors were critiquing him as well. I thought their points had some salience, and I wrote about it. There’s really nothing more to it.

This is not pitting two people against each other, it’s making a comparison. David’s decision to have a more public facing life is fine, as is our right to critique some decisions he makes in public. 

I don’t know, I think there’s a lot of space between David Hogg Should Be Homeless Because Capitalism and Hmm Is It A Little Goofy That David Hogg Is Using His Massive Following Derived From His Position As The De Facto Spokesman Of A Senseless Tragedy To Build A Profitable Pillow Company That Relies On Tired…

His brother apparently died of alcoholism, and for once in his benighted foul existence Dump decided to learn something from it. Or he saw it as a sign of weakness. Probably the second one.

Wait...this is serious? Cruz was never genuine in his tweet. Dude has been thirsting after AOC for quite awhile, so he occasionally “agrees” with her. If he was serious I’d think he would’ve moved forward on his own, rather than trying to piggyback off someone else’s suggestions or initiatives. He’s a coward and she…

AOC’s takedown of Cruz was a bullseye. Cruz in his clumsy blobfish manner is gearing up for ‘24. Trying to score some faux “statesman reaching across the aisle to our bitterest enemy for the common good” points. Fuck him. His lame-ass pantomime was so obvious, only Greenwald and Dore can’t see it. Cruz don’t give a…
