Never forget that batshit insane, libertarian Arizona is also the largest state beneficiary of Federal money. Roughly 43% of all income generated in Arizona comes from Federal tax revenue. I know it’s cliche to talk about how neoliberalism (for lack of a better term) greatly over-estimates the power of the Federal…

You and I talking about it? No. We don’t have a stake in what’s being discussed and our outlet is the Kinja comments. Bringing an advocate onto a national show and asking him about his beliefs is a different matter. As I’ve stated numerous times, that’s exactly what the Overton Window addresses and its thesis has…

Are you asking how entertaining an idea in the public discourse can normalize that idea? Moving it even from the Unthinkable category into the Radical category? It’s pretty self-explanatory.

This is a huge, huge pile of pure, unadulterated bullshit that is pointless to engage with because that would imply that there was even a grain of truth underpinning any of it. You can fuck the fuck off right now, completely and utterly.

Yeah and now he gets to say “when I was on NPR...” to idiots who didn’t hear him get pwned. Sean Spicer got his own ass handed to him on a daily basis but he still is “former White House Press spokesman” with a national best seller. Tim Hasselback threw for 56 yards and 4 picks in his only NFL start but still gets to…

Every society has lies that they agree upon believing even in the face of overwhelming evidence against them. That’s why Augustus and many of the Emperors after him called themselves “The First Citizen” and pretended the Republic and Senate still had the final, legal say when, obviously, their wealth and armies did.…

The Overton Window would like to have a word with you.

This is actually what pisses me off most. They don’t want anyone who isn’t like themselves around. Full stop. The end. Just fucking say it. People that don’t look or sound like them make them uncomfortable and they want them to go away. I really just can’t believe the hoops they jump through in order to avoid coming…

Yeah and it takes a very specific type of asshole to see this and immediately cry “this is unfair because I have so many more assets! Why can’t you put yourselves in my (much nicer) shoes!?”

Think about it like this. Donating that second property to a homeless shelter organization now would both greatly increase your 2018 onetime contribution AND mean that any cash you donated in later years would be a much higher percentage of your household wealth! It’s a win-win!

- It’s an unfair comparison because I make more money and much of my wealth isn’t liquid so I would have to give a lot more than someone who has 1/5th of my income and would have more trouble giving it as it’s tied up in investments.

The only thing I don’t get about his Pelosi dig is that it didn’t start with a “George Soros funded” jab for a 1-2 combo. That’s just GOP branding 101.

Of all the things to pop into one’s head, this article and the down-stream fake-news loving Republican politicians reminded me of the Great Molasses Flood in Boston’s North End. Specifically the part where people would go to the molasses vat and fill their jars out on the street with leaking molasses from cracks in…

Well considering how 4chan and members of Reddit got the boot and they were places that professed to not police any of the content, I’m a little surprised that Facebook is so laissez faire about the whole things.

If we are talking peak ability at their absolute best then he is not winning that vote against Moss. Or for clutchness (which means nothing I know) chris Carter would be up there too. Fuck. I sound like Magary, don’t I?

Hold on a second, I’m not reading the words of a young black woman? I’m starting to think you might be an angry middle-aged white man.

Oh how could you not? It’s so perfect.

The fact that you think that’s common or even in the top 1,000,000 of issues facing America is a much bigger problem.

I’m gonna give Ron Lyle all the credit in the world for not immediately floating off into heaven like one of Toon Patrol from Who Framed Roger Rabbit after that stunner. That jab should have done the job all on it’s own.

I’m going to give you a degree of benefit of doubt that you in no fucking way have earned and say that you’e honestly more worried about the theoretical damage that addressing and curtailing racist, genocidal language could have on the discourse in general. Sure. Let’s pretend the Overton Window isn’t a real thing.…
