Yeah! People think the stupid things I'm saying are stupid because they're jealous and wish they could be me!

He's made less than $10k in donations to two Democrats over the last 30 years or so, and has been a registered Republican since 1998.

I believe it's a rectangle/square problem. NuDisqus accounts work on any Disqus site but site-specific logins only work on that site.

Thank you for taking such an impressive and brave stand on this sensitive topic. We're all quite impressed, I'm sure.

Yeah, Republicans will take the Senate because people are tired of Liberal Racism. That's.. that's definitely why.

I don't think it's realistic to say that he's going to get canceled, by any stretch.

After 568 comments, this was the brilliant insight we were all waiting for.

It's more Colbert as a show than Colbert as a dude that the campaign's levied against, but that show is kind of the main thing he does for a living.

Not a problem. I'm sure there'll be plenty of folks shouting at you about how raising thousands of dollars doesn't matter because it's Twitter, but ehhhhhh.

Thank you for this list. I've seen most of this go down but had problems remembering any of it in specific, which ought to be pretty useful for obvious reasons.

She was mostly helping to amplify Native voices on Twitter and helping to get things like #NotYourMascot trending enough to help it get talked about much more broadly.

Yeah, it's super clear that he responded solely because he thought it'd be funny. Super duper clear even.

Certainly not in every case. But in a case like this where 90% of the fight is keeping people listening and making sure that the problem doesn't just fade into the background, I absolutely think that it can be a huge help.

hahahaha oh man, the fact that Colbert has been transphobic in the past without ever apologizing for it or even addressing it is SO FUNNY

Except this is ridiculously stupid. The crowd in question has been a major part of the #NotYourMascot campaign that has been keeping Snyder's toes to the fire and has made this a big enough issue for Colbert to cover it in the first place. These are the people keeping the whole fucking thing alive.

Which, as I mentioned above, is horseshit. Suey Park has been a huge ally for the #NotYourMascot campaign, and that's one of the major drivers of the conversation that even has us talking about it at this level.

IMO, this is the dumbest fucking shit that anyone has said about this. After Suey has been helping to blast this shit about Snyder's racist bullshit to the point that it became a big enough deal for Colbert to say something, now she's the problem and no one's talking about that team anymore.

I love it, me.

Sometimes the best part of a downvote is trying to think of a reason for it. Does someone just really hate talking about comic books? Do they not like Werdsmiff? Are they just jealous that they don't have better AV Club friends?

It's very common in chemistry, as I understand it, so there's a long linguistic tradition.
