The entire post is filled with references to Black, American civil rights leaders, yet not one mention of any injustices perpetrated in an African tribe or leaders from those tribes. We both know those exist, so why fill a whole post on American history instead of actually talking about the individuals in question?

There is something very US-centric about responses to this. I’d be interested to know more about how this related to race & Hungarian history.

Women in trousers? What next? Hussies out riding bicycles!

I’m loling at the idea that you think Royals shop from catalogs. She picked it out of an assortment of rings that Charles had Garrard’s bring over to the palace.

as people use the term ‘due process’ all the time as shortcut, and not in legal sense.

He’s using ‘due process’ as a shortcut for ‘the ability to defend yourself at all, or have the burden be on the person doing the accusing.’

Ah. You not only don’t understand what Due Process means, you also don’t understand the word “convict” or what a burden of proof is. A conviction is something that a judge or jury does in a criminal trial held by the government. A burden of proof is something that a party in a civil or criminal trial must satisfy in

Haters gonna hate. The craft that went into this is subtle, and the result is unbelievably beautiful. The themes, the melodic complexity, the wordplay — wow. It has the potential to be a timeless song. Fifty, hell, a hundred years from now, I bet people will still be humming it as they lace up their Yeezys, perhaps

You know what else is important? Understanding language, rhetoric, reasoning, argument, logic, etc.

I am so sick of this bullshit prioritizing science and math over the humanities. People who can’t evaluate argument, recognize propaganda or understand history and sociology are much easier to manipulate, even if they

That’s a hilarious thing to hear coming from Hitler.

I think her idea of “living on a farm” is just her using the wrong lingo. She probably just means living away from the city like near wine country, where there are no smelly dirty farms nearby. No way would she be able to cope with this for longer than a few days / weeks, before someone steps in and provides her with

“Well, both sides see things very differently, but you see, my side is objectively right and their side is objectively wrong.”

I’m Chinese-American, and its so funny to me how each countries media reports on the other. In China, where women could own property and divorce hundreds of years before their western counterparts, they see American restrictions on abortions and birth control, the gender pay gap, rates of sexual violence, etc as

I imagine she gets a lot of shit for anything and everything. She’s probably just fending the shit off ahead of time.

You’re like a troll, trolling right? Cause YOU are one of the reasons people won’t vote for Hilary in the primary. People don’t like knowing the ending. They want to believe that they have some input. And FYI: Bernie doesn’t take away from “real” issues. He brings real issues to the table. Without him Hillary would

Yeah he was clearly defending her. I’m so confused, basically Bernie Sanders existing ad a candidate is enough to be an attack and nasty.

Bernie and Hillary are serious people acting like serious candidates - discussing policy without resorting to fantastical lies and insults like the other side. They deserve our respect because they’re acting like adults. The “piss off, rednecks” line is more like the blather coming from the other side. Discuss Bernie

How is essentially defending her right to go to the bathroom during a debate considered nasty? What, exactly, has he said beyond “the emails should be investigated” that’s so offensive? I’m confused as to what you’re getting at.

I really love Sanders. Who knew I’d be this excited about voting for an old white guy?!

Did you miss the point? Are you easily distracted by minor flaws ?
