He was sooo close to having a point that maybe phone polls aren’t a super accurate way to measure modern America, and then he couldn’t help but rage-piss himself with his “SJW” nonsense. 

If we’re going to throw $315,000 at a company for each employee they hire, why can’t we just give that $315k for universal basic income to 10 people?

Can we get Savannah Guthrie to interview the two assailants to get their side of the story? I am certain that economic anxiety led to his and she can paint them as the true victims in this story. Yes people this is what happens when you allow white victimization to become normalized. Find these two and drop them in…

I know it’s beside the point, but also

I knew once Deadspin started covering fucking soccer that fencing couldn’t be far behind. 

And the engagement via Slack. I know Slack is like, how all the yoots at media companies like to communicate or whatever, but this is so stupid in the context of an event like layoffs, where communication should be serious and focused.

My 2024 Campaign promise:

I would honestly like to know how she feels, now that she is a bit more removed from that job, about the part she’s played in the prison-industrial complex.

The implicit argument in “they had a right to be there” is one of equivocating their actions with Phillips’. Hell, you explicitly did that.

When you further pressed in on 1A, you created an implicit argument that Sandmann doesn’t deserve the blowback he’s getting; your dogged insistence on referring to Constitutional…

Your assertion: “The kids had a right to be there, doing what they were doing.”

My response: “They did. They don’t have any protection from consequences following their actions, though, apart from legal consequences, given that they’re shielded by 1A from legal action.”

You...really don’t understand how conversations…

Dude. Did you not see the guys who lost jobs over their involvement in the Charlottesville protests?

If you become a public liability (which can be considered a violation of company policy), then your ass is out.

Most states have at-will employment laws, meaning they can toss you for any reason whatsoever, or no reason…

No, it really doesn’t.

Go to your place of employment, and shout a racist epithet as loudly as you possibly can.

If your boss hasn’t dragged your ass in for a long chat with HR (and a possible pink slip) within an hour, something’s amiss.

That is a private/civil consequence. You can’t be arrested for choosing to drop the…

Ah, but the First Amendment only protects you from government interference in the exercise of legally protected expression (as in, you cannot go into a crowded theater and yell “fire” and not expect to be arrested).

It does NOT protect, and never has protected from public/social/civil consequences for expression…

You mean the longer version where we back up all the way to these kids deciding to put on MAGA hats?

Grey comments on anything related to this story are a fucking mess. 

Just a friendly reminder because I was recently reminded of it yesterday.

Fuck those little racist, incel fucks. If you wear a MAGA hat, you are a fucking racist piece of shit. You will be treated accordingly.

Didn’t even need to see his picture, when it said “The suspect eventually surrendered to the SWAT team” I knew it was a white guy. 

None of these journalists and famous people were wrong to think these kids were snotty, abusive little assholes. They were wrong to promote it nationally and turn it into a big symbolic shaming of teenagers. They are also wrong if in apologizing for the second thing, they suggest that the kids weren’t wrong and were…
