I notice that one of our mayo-supreme grey overlords is trying to pretend that the Republican party didn’t recruit the disaffected former Dixie-Democrats starting in the late 60s. It’s why Texas was a Democrat state in 1950, but a Republican state in 2020.

The intersect is unlikely to be significant enough to overcome the GOP’s very loud hatred for anyone not white.

I agree with Candace McDuffie’s take on Black celebs mouthing off conservative/white supremacist crap, but it’s a much harder challenge criticizing Black leaders who are currently spewing “tough on crime” conservative bullshit while ridiculing elected progressives with their more sensible approach to fighting crime.

Answer: MONEY!

Incidentally, two things can be true simultaneously:

Seriously, pulling stupid stunts to get attention by dividing people is basically what DeSantis GOP does.

I do like hearing things I’ve thought for awhile voiced by others.

Come to Cali. We have Disneyland too. And much less racism and bigotry, better weather, and MUCH better food. And weed is legal. 

Fuck that Dollar Tree Despot, and fuck Florida. Don’t go if you are Black, a Woman, LGBTQIA+, or simply have sense.

DeSantis may be as ridiculous as the bills he signs but he knows what he’s doing.”

Yes he does know. Whether successful or not in his big picture scheme is to be seen but he’s got a course of action that’s he’s dedicated to. He’s a much less charismatic Trump (and just as butt hurt when questioned) but IMO even more

Not only is she racist, she thought that having the twitter handle @BoozeAndFagz attached to her real, professional, name, was a good idea. What a gangrenous muppet.

IDGAF how clever these shitheads think they are. The entire thing shows that she sees ALL Black people as nothing more than a joke, and trash to be mocked.

the good old unpology. " I'm sorry the garbage I wrote upset you " What a cunt

I always thought the pluralizing was intentional, with the older monikers for the United States as a whole emphasizing the individual members of the union (like "These United States" or "the several States").

That uptick is internet nerds who noticed this very thing and started grammar nazing about it. Nazing is now a verb too.

Media is also a plural noun, but I'm the only person I'm aware of (plus my professor) who says "The Media are always accused of bias, etc."

When I went to Malaysia in high school, the kids there were all talking about going "to University" or "at University" vs 'merican "I'm gonna go to collegeD and get WASTEDEDS"

British English and American English often treat collective nouns differently. For example, Americans would say of a company - "Unilever is expanding in Europe," where a Brit might say, "Unilever are expanding in Europe."
