I agree, however, I think that’s a legislative issue for down the road, not a CAMPAIGN issue for this particular election.

Safeguarding it? They don’t currently have it! Them having it has never been a real leftist issue! I’ve never really noticed it being discussed until now!
And I agree with you on that stuff. I’m not even sure ANY of them are “evil” - they’re victims of circumstance and genetics and brain chemistry and how they were raised - I’m not a tough on crime kinda guy. But we’ve got to do a lot of work before they even have someone worth voting for - there are just too many more…
Wrong on the first count, but moving on. Though there is a compelling argument to be made for forgetting everything that isn’t climate change, I will give us credit enough to work on at least a handful of major issues at once. Giving prisoners the right to vote (in what is STILL going to be a choice between a bad…
I don’t care about whether Republicans will accept it - that’s not my point. You’re wrong that there’s only one correct answer - this is going to be a divisive issue among DEMOCRATS, because I think there are compelling arguments on both sides. And there are too many issues with only one correct answer that aren’t…
Unlike a lot of issues, though, I don’t think this is a clear-cut case of right and wrong. There are compelling reasons why someone who is in jail for life for murdering another person shouldn’t have a say. I’ve never been okay with former prisoners not being allowed to vote, but I can’t say I’ve given too much…
I’m one of the few people on this site who thinks you are saying some important things right now, but this issue is a waste of fucking time. Right NOW. I hope and pray (metaphorically speaking) that we get to a point where we can address these things, but this issue is not presently worth the damage it will do to…
Climate change, wealth inequality and the manipulative powers of social media are EXISTENTIAL THREATS to HUMANITY right now and any energy devoted to issues other than these is wasted energy.
Jesus Christ, with all the important changes Democrats have to stump for right now, allowing prisoners - people who we’ve already decided should be stripped of a lot of rights and freedoms - to vote is way too fucking low on the list to be wasting any time on. This is exactly the kind of shit the Russians want the…
Read Jaron Lanier’s book “Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now” - not only is the problem so much deeper than white supremacists, Twitter might be responsible for the temperament of the Trump we’ve all known and loved the past 6-7 years!
I’m with you - I don’t support the death penalty in principle - I think the possibility of one innocent person being put to death for a crime they didn’t commit, is too unbearable for a society to risk - but that doesn’t mean I feel a damn bit of pity for most of the guilty motherfuckers that do get done. Adios,…
“SERVING President Trump”? Is that how that’s supposed to work?
There’s a good GoT analogy to be had here, but Election 2020 isn’t the White Walkers in this scenario. Trump is Cersei and Democratic Candidate X is Dany., and, what I’ve come to realize as I read/hear more about it, Google/Facebook/YouTube/Twitter are the White Walkers that are going to destroy us all regardless of…
Well, for starters I hate the way they’ve posed the question - most kids in school are taught to be wary of always/never questions so that might have thrown some literalists into the “other/not sure” category; e.g. Well, when I was five I thought the Earth was flat...
Looking at all those pics all I could think of was how I’d forgotten how drop dead hot Mariah Carey is. I’ve got a date with my whisk later on tonight.
Whoa, I’m a Gemini and a lawful neutral too! Wanna fuq?
Does this show even have upskirts anymore? That lady host looks like she’s being very careful about it and I just can’t imagine why anyone would watch?
I’m reading Jaron Lanier’s book, “10 Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now” and he puts forth the idea that Trump, like so many of us, is a victim of the social media’s (Twitter, in his case) behaviour modification that rewards polarization and assholery. I can see it.
Your Hyphen Can Blow Me - that’s hilarious.
“Where did they find this guy amid, say, tens of other French politicians who could have spoken to this tragedy, and more importantly, who’s being held responsible for booking him?”
