I generally try not to wish ill on my fellow citizens, but seriously, fuck them. We tried. We’ve tried for so long to break through the cycle of propaganda from the GOP telling them to do everything to fuck themselves over in the name of lining rich peoples’ pockets. Well you can’t blame Democrats anymore — you’ve…

Oh, you fucking morons. You just fell for his con. Because it was a con - it was a con the entire way. Hillary wanted to expand the Dodd-Frank Act, which would increase regulation and oversight of Wall Street, and to levy taxes against them to pay for social service that would help people like struggling farmers and…

I hope that letter just reads, “You’re fucked, asshole.”

Knowing that she and Dick Durbin are my senators for the next four years makes me feel a little bit better as we stare down the black hole that is about to consumer our country. Tammy, please protect us.

Chance literally gives me hope for the future. As well as all them dancing beats.

No problemo. The history of anti-Semitic propaganda is pretty intense and insane. And people wonder why us Jews are so sensitive to it. Whee!

It does, but at the same time you started this entire conversation by exasperatedly saying “it has always seemed to me that Israel is only interested in what is best for the Jewish people, and they want everyone else (i.e. other governments) to be interested in what is best for them as well above other considerations,…

If the diamond industry wants me to buy more diamonds they need to cut the price of diamonds in half and then in half again. LMK when that happens, DeBeers, and then we’ll talk.

My question: Why is this:

It sort of makes sense, but also it doesn’t make sense because 1. Every country in this world is doing exactly that (hell, Trump and Brexit are large-scale examples of countries being interested in themselves and themselves only to the detriment of everyone else), and 2. Israel is not self-interested beyond any other…

Sure, no prob. Anti-Semitism is a weird, weird, old, weird, frustrating world.

Conservatives of all flavors, races, religions and backgrounds are able to support a stunning amount of cognitive dissonance.

That is FANTASTIC. I’m saving that.

It’s Napoleon-era anti-Semitic propaganda that, like most anti-Semitic things, never ever dies: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/the-rothschild-libel-why-has-it-taken-200-years-for-an-anti-semitic-slur-that-emerged-from-the-10216101.html

Yes. It’s fucking Napoleon-era anti-Semitic propaganda that, like most anti-Semitic things, never ever dies: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/the-rothschild-libel-why-has-it-taken-200-years-for-an-anti-semitic-slur-that-emerged-from-the-10216101.html

I hate Netanyahu and the shit he’s mired Israel in when they should have been making huge progress towards completing the two state solution and establishing mutually beneficial diplomatic and economic relations with Palestine, but the reason Israel is concerned with the welfare of the Jewish people is because it is…

Don’t tell them you’re not voting for them. Don’t tell them you’re a Democrat. Reinforce that they work for YOU because they do. Tell them if your demands aren’t taken seriously, you will ensure they lose the election in 2018. Get every single person you know to call and say the same thing.

Proof that it’s not? The Democratic resurgence in the Congress when GWB was in office offered more resistance over time that he worked to get around. The Congress since 2010 has literally and openly proclaimed its only purpose is to block Obama from being able to do anything, from appoint judges and cabinet positions…

Never underestimate the power of daily phone calls focused on a single issue to change a person’s mind.

Ah thanks!
