So, wait. It’s perfectly acceptable that the university outlaw BDS speech, but they feel in some way obligated to allow these racist onto campus in the name of free speech? I see no problem with this.

If you look closely enough you can see Steve Doocy is actually trying to think through this and it’s making him very, very uncomfortable.

The republican party is the party of white nationalists, whether that’s explicitly stated or not. They’ve courted that group for years: Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Ben Shapiro, etc... Now they’re terrified because the inmates are running the asylum. The search for the “rational conservative” is a mistake, because…

Yes, definitely. Especially this sentence: To be fair, the republicans are, in essence, the party of white nationalists now. Calling them racists and bigots isn’t untrue

Really? You think she was insincere when she said that she would seek justice for Freddy Gray? Really. I think she meant it. I think she absolutely intended on prosecuting to the best of her ability those fucking cops. I think that the police, the mayor’s office, and even members of her own staff who were…

This isn’t bidding against yourself* - this is proposing a deal that’s so fundamentally unworkable that it indicates an lack of seriousness in the negotiator.

Anything the moves these lackluster dems away from their radical pragmatism is worth the effort.

Yes.

Obey.

I would argue that Unix is just as worthless.

Just a few bad apples.

It’s a shame, really. The dems have become the alt-center (I think that’s Mayumi’s term) where every policy position or even every utterance has to be focus grouped first to make sure that we’re not upsetting anyone. It’s the West Wingification of politics, where the douche with the best credentials and the most…

I see what you’re saying here, but I would modify it a bit. I have no idea when it happened, but at some point the Clinton wing of party (which represents only about 8% of them at this point) decided that criticism of the democrats and of Clinton in particular means that you’re racist and misogynist. It’s like they…

Sure, Cleveland is good, but let’s not disregard the fact that the rest of the Central is dogshit.

You’re welcome! Although I find the term “Bro” to be both offensive and inaccurate. I’m more of a “brosef” or a “broheem.”

They’re losing them. They have no coherent message or ideology because they keep trying to gerrymander their message to appease their donor class without alienating their voting base—that’s impossible because those two groups are at cross purposes. The state party apparatuses have atrophied to the point where they…

2018 will be the last of the Democratic party if they end up losing a significant number of seats. They will, because that’s what they do.

I wondered when some douche was going to quote Friedman. You did it, and now we’re all happy.

And money! Let’s not forget the money.

Bernie would have won.
