And people think it’s coincidence that it’s the Republicans who gut school funding and support skewed, rewritten history textbooks.

There are assholes on both sides. Everyone knows that. And that excuses the right’s actions? “They think we’re ignorant, Bible-thumping intolerant hicks, so let’s act like it?”
A friend of mine once asked me why Obama forced the ACA onto the American people if he knew it was gonna be so shitty. I didn’t have an educated response, so I mumbled something about “I think it was good at the beginning, but then Republicans blocked it and hacked at it until it was a hollow shell of its former self,…
Reminds me of a quote I see every now and then on my FB:
*gasp*
If you mean because the left doesn’t fight hard enough and lets the right bully them around, then yeah, I’d agree with you. However, in my example, “being a pussy” means “giving a shit about people who aren’t you.”
Pokemon League?
The greatest trick Republicans have pulled is convincing people that they’re the party of big, strong, manly things. I know guys who have pretty left-leaning beliefs, but vote Republican because “the left are a bunch of pussies.”
It’s like Meryl Streep’s “all you’ll have left is football and MMA” jab. It sounds harmless, but give the detractors an inch and they’ll use it as an excuse to ignore everything you said, no matter how ironclad your argument was.
Cue right-wingers claiming she was “unfairly ambushed” by a liberal Hollywood comedian who has no business talking politics.
*gasp!* The true sheeple are the ones using the term mockingly!
God, BvS Luthor was terrible...
If Trump were to tweet about Star Wars, he would undoubtedly compare himself and his administration to Luke and the Rebellion—the small, scrappy, for-the-people organization fighting the uphill battle against the evil Empire.
On one hand, yes, I hope everyone feels the pain from that jackass being in control.
That drives me insane. I don’t know any transgender people in person, but I’ve talked to and read their stories online; announcing to your loved ones that you’re transgender must be one of the most terrifying things for a young person—opening yourself up to the criticism, emotional/physical abuse, and even abandonment…
Ah, yes. Manga cows (they just sit there and graze).
You prefer Papa John’s over Domino’s? Cool, I can respect that.
I’ve thought about that “warning label” thing when looking at a bag of BBQ charcoal and seeing the little picture that says “do not grill inside a vehicle.” I said to myself, “Self, this is there because some dumbasses tried it, somebody got died, they sued on the grounds of, ‘well, the bag didn’t say we SHOULDN’T do…
That shit is infuriating. I know people who have pulled that: “Well, I’m not racist—I’ve never called anybody some racist slur, nobody I know acts in a ridiculous over-the-top ‘shout at brown people from a passing vehicle’ way, and I have non-white friends—so therefore racism isn’t as big a problem in America as some…
