It’s also nothing new. One of the most infuriating things for the urban French (and elsewhere) revolutionaries of 1848 was how the rural farmers who were every bit as exploited by their governments and aristocrats reacted in revulsion to the ideas of national constitutions, worker unity, etc. Fear, especially fear of…

Jesus, even that? Exactly how many things are you obsessed with that you actually like?

As a Raiders fan I assume the only part you don’t like about your self-assessment is the “non-violent” part.

But as Omar said, these idiots are going to stay mad no matter what.

Even with their disproportionate representation, they remain widely ignored and disparaged by a population that is increasingly urbanizing.

Jesus fucking Christ you absolute fucking idiot. Rural residents have disproportionate representation in every single fucking branch of government at every single level. You are advocating for the continuation of a tyranny you like rather than one that actual represents the majority of the people in this country. And…

You make 3 people who don’t know what it is.

I mean, there’s a reason why this joke is a little too accurate to be funny.

What I’ve found “matters” to most people who have an opinion of places they’re never bothered to learn about let alone visit (which I don’t begrudge because there are plenty of places I never would have visited if someone didn’t pay for me to be there) is the ability to say to themselves “yeah my life isn’t great but…

Yeah. You’re right, when you start off with “all men are created equal” while *wink winking away slavery then yeah, you probably weren’t capable of morally selling out. Although to be fair, I don’t think anyone has been constantly talking about the Spanish American War for over a century.

Yeah, the fucking cradle of civilization for fucking millennia, from Abraham to Constantine to Alexandria is an uncivilized fucking shithole because they didn’t invent bow ties. Fuck of you fucking failson of a Reagan flunkie.

Peter Thiel is pissed because he thinks if he just tries hard d enough he can control the truth of the world. I will not pretend to understand what it’s like to have grown up like either Thiel or Denton before either was rich and powerful butI know for a fact which one of the two is truly fucking the rest of the world…

Oh of course you’re right, it’s not. I was reading The True Flag: Theodore Roosevelt, Mark Twain, and the Birth of American Empire which is basically about how the Spanish American War altered the course of American history by deciding that America should become an colonizing empire, how close that came to not…

That’s actually not true, roughly 100 years ago many prominent Republicans actually believed in limited federal spending and did not agree with joining WWI, the concept of American colonialism in the South Pacific during the Spanish American War, etc. as well as disagreeing with national social program funding. Say…

That’s mean. And I haven’t been to a club for at least 3 years.

How the hell can a former Gawker Media property devolve into a gossip column? That’s kind of their whole fucking thing.

Oh yeah, this is a great idea! When in American history have The Slave Patrol local sheriffs ever over-reached their authority?

Here’s the simplest, stupidest fucking thing that every fucking asshole like our Dark Tower enthusiast here does not get. Engaging him with words that are not as simple, unambiguous and direct as “you’re a piece of shit, you should give all of your money to someone who is not a piece of shit” concedes that he has…

Think of it this way. When was the last time that Meadows had a conversation with a woman of color? The last time he had a conversation with a woman of color who disagreed with him? The last time he had a conversation with a woman of color who disagreed with him and then refused to be cowed into submission by him?
