Eat some ass, Josh. It probably won’t make you live longer, but at least you won’t be online.

Which is terrible by multiple factors as most people don’t even bother to read articles - just the headlines - in order to formulate an informed opinion/view of the topic at hand.
grrrrrrr!!!

He should have never been nominated.

Shame on your local paper. Just printing articles from Opposite-Land. This topsy-turvy nature of things now is just mind-numbing. It really is the blind leading us towards oblivion.

and let’s not forget another black woman who stood up against her harassment:

“One of the first faces of sexual harassment in the workplace (you’re welcome white women),”

Thank you Anne, for repeatedly addressing these issues. Sadly, they are more entrenched than many want to believe.

“Most white households (71 percent) report being able to get $3,000 from family or friends in a financial emergency, compared with less than half of Hispanic and black households (49 percent and 43 percent, respectively).”

That’s all fine advice, but has nothing to do with structural inequalities that have been built over centuries and are being built higher today. Recognizing that it is much harder for a black family to acquire wealth is not the same thing as teaching all children the magic of compound interest.

“We aren’t in the same situation as working class whites, and we have never been.”

All politics are identity politics and it’s ridiculous when they pretend that theirs are somehow special. Then again, that’s white privilege for you.

I used to think it was a mark of how badly that we’ve fallen when Nixon was now seen as a radical liberal; but after the last few months, I’ve now learned that even Ronald Reagan is seen as a liberal too. And we should all take a moment to reflect on those two things.

Richard Nixon (!) proposed a Basic Income in 1969.

“I listened to you for five minutes.” Yeah, that’s got to be the whitest statement I’ve read all day.

Yes, just simply announcing he was reopening his investigation, which he isn’t required to do, based on new information, which turned out to be nothing, all the while being mum on the FBI’s investigation into Russia’s dirt on Trump. Perfectly reasonable.

I’m torn. On the one hand, I want him to have the opportunity to do some good. On the other hand, people should never be allowed to forget the impact of their words and actions.

Good. He hasn’t yet earned to be out here like nothing happened. We’re still in the thick of a messy situation he had a significant part in creating. You don’t get to go on the speaking circuit unchallenged while these horrors are yet unfolding.
