Abortion is my shutdown topic. I’ll engage with right-wingnuts on race, war, feminism, anything else... They’re still wrong on those subjects, sometimes horribly so, but the minute some loon dives into Jesus, fetal pain, “conception begins at birth”, yada yada, I just nope right the fuck out of there. Not worth a…

That part will be fun.

Just think, that is likely Melania’s thought too, whenever Mr. Cheeto-skin is up for some FriskyTime.

How discouraging the atmosphere must be over there, that they have to fight this on two fronts, the bros and the women Old Guard who pooh-pooh the whole thing.

Yea, you are a lost and deluded cause if you think the state of Israel is inherently racist. Maturity will cure you eventually, just give it time.

I’ve been a member of the Democratic Party for ~20 years, snookums, and supporter of Israel for just as long. They ain’t perfect, but it is hard to be so in the face of systemic racism and daily acts of terrorism by the so-called Palestinian “nation”.

Oh, antisemite, you have no idea what you’re talking about.

Keep swinging and missin with those Text-Walls, bigot. No one’s actually reading em.

I’m glad there’s discussion about the complexity here, some seem to want to put Ansari up with Weinstein & Spacey, whole others are the “just a bad date” / “she shoulda left” camp. It’s somewhere in between and I’ll freely admit to not having a clue on where to put it. Reading the babe.net piece was uncomfortable, as…

Apartheid was a term for South African systemic discrimination. Hipsters have tried and failed to reuse the word to attack Israel for defending itself against acts of terrorism. It doesn’t stick.

Yes, it is very trendy among the hipsters to “support Palestine” when in fact that “support”, whether monetary or just liking a few tweets here and there (the extent of most hipster activism) goes directly to corrupt terrorist financiers like Hamas.

Yes, being antrisemitic is rather trendy among the dwindling Jill Stein wing of American politics.

Fuck that and fuck any inbred halfwit who actually thinks Chelsea Manning is a viable candidate. This a vanity campaign, complete with ads that are less about politics and more about wooing the Mr. Robot binge-watching Netflixers.

That “ad” or whatever the fuck it was was created to corner the Black Mirror / Mr. Robot binge watching bloc, apparently. So good luck with that, Chelsea.

Yea, because what we need in politics right now are more “outsiders” who know nothing about politics and run campaigns on populism and name recognition.

When has Difficult-To-Work-With ever killed a male actor’s career? Christian Bale, Russell Crowe, for starters.

Why are you sad little dudebros trolling a forum for women’s issues? Did your MRA meeting have to cancel?

William Gibson wrote the script for Kill Switch, favorite author and X Files episode in one.

I’d wager that he’s the type that really hasn’t looked into investing and 401ks and such, and like a promising rookie who signs the big contract and then gets dumped when he sucks, is about to come into a serious gut check.
