I worked extensively for Philly4Bernie campaign and the overwhelming majority of volunteers were POC under 40 and only one of the paid staffers sent by campaign HQ was white. The rush to write off a political movement that occurred by black people in black cities is disgusting. Yes it’s different from the South up

Jesus Christ, everything is economics, nothing you can say do think or feel will change that and you tacitly endorse economic illiteracy when you falsely define racial issues as separate from economic issues. You’re speaking to all the same issues Bernie addresses, just with different words. No one is telling you to

!!!!! I’ve never seen anyone discuss this publicly. I used to work for a wire service and Rand fucking knows how to “unintentionally” pose for the camera like no one in Washington, just photos of that libertarian weirdo talking looked like a movie poster for a political thriller. But omg closeups, the makeup is

He’s “butt” if your definition of butt can be used as “whoa, s/he’s quietly rocking a great butt under those jeans.”

Okay, “they” don’t worship the random colors used as an organizing tool and recreational rallying cry, they derive excitement from unthinkable physical feats and complex system implementation that instinctively seem impossible on a normal level.

You are my favorite kind of non-sports fan. A reasonable adult who makes certain cultural compromises because you recognize how much fun it is when others’ make those compromises about your own already-established interests.

Modern sports culture is revenge of the social justice warriors and math nerds, and it is glorious. Look at Deadspin, TheRinger, every terrible ESPN attempt to be relevant, The bandwagon appeal of the Astros/Warriors/Seahawks, America’s love affair with goofy post-football Tony Romo, the rise of advanced metrics in eve

Yea, if you’re a closeted gym teacher in a high school movie set in 1979.

No, it’s not offensive it’s just a mind-bogglingly dumb sentiment. “Sportyball” and “sprotsball” is a stupid joke exclusively told by the worst people, you don’t get to be one of the worst people and not be called out on it. You don’t understand sports or their appeal, that is totally fine and normal. I like all

Yes you ignorant shit, I have proof, I voted PA’s rigged primary and it was the most appalling voting experience of my life.

Yawn.

If we had all the libraries in the world, sure, but this is the world we live in:

NJ cops are the worst, it’s a shockingly openly corrupt state. Compared to like Alabama the populace has far less Klan-hooded cross burners, but the ones Jersey does have are pretty much guaranteed a job and a pension in a local or state police force.

Also, for people over a certain age ‘The Lion King’ is almost as much a stage production (an extremely unapologetically African stage production) as it is a cartoon - it would be boldly unjustifiable to retell that story with like Viggo Mortensen and Tina Fey (I’m certainly sure some asshat tried).

Totally fair, but as you see in the comments below it goes from zero-to-’Bernie is anti-choice’ in many people’s minds in a matter of seconds.

On pandering to the religious right, that’s not the issue - that would be neat and tidy and very easy to politically ostracize. This is the religious left, which is a very real

It’s not one or the other and no one ever said it was. I’ve literally lived in both places you specifically called out for years, neither populace is any more or less a real american, and mostly they (understandably) don’t even give a shit about each other (remember, most people don’t vote at all, rural or urban

Yea except that’s not what he said at all and it takes an insane leap to misinterpret it that way. Let’s not take one irresponsible writer’s self-serving incorrect assumption and make it into something worth talking about (beyond the context of identifying that writer as an irresponsible and worthless non-voice).

Here’s anti-choice Democratic Senator and Hillary Clinton surrogate Bob Casey, as you can see he’s being embraced by Hillary Clinton, President Obama, Debra Messing and Katy Perry. Bernie Sanders never used an anti-choice Democrat as an official campaign surrogate, so since Bernie’s dead to you and you’re not a

The statewide and national DNC back anti-choice candidates here in PA all the time. It makes zero sense to run a pro choice candidate in an overwhelmingly anti-choice district unless that district has no chance of flipping. We have tons of anti-choice anti-Trump Democrats in PA (like United States Senator and former

Tot hake¡
