They’re talking the hundreds of thousands of people employed by Amazon working in dismal conditions for a company that overwhelms small communities and shuts down small businesses

You should be ashamed of yourself for your take. just because we can doesn’t mean we should. Nothing about the Bezos Boat is groundbreaking or amazing in any meaningful way. It’s just a clumsy use of unlimited funds.

Yes the super rich can still be super rich and pay their employees living wages and taxes that support the infrastructure that enable them to become super rich.

That’s a lot of money that’s not going to the people that made it possible for Bezos to have the boat in the first place.

Or just fucking take it apart right there in the drydock.

Spare us, dude. Bleeding hearts for the suffering mega-yacht industry?

Wait. Is the yacht currently mastless? Can’t they simply launch and tow it to a dock as-is without dismantling the bridge for the final outfitting?

If you’re taking it back to Scalia, it depends on how you define “winner.” George HW Bush really regretted nominating David Souter to the Supreme Court. Souter turned out a lot more left leaning than anyone anticipated.  The GOP might not consider him to be a “winner.” 

Biden had “politicized” the process

Among other infuriating things (e.g. the blatant racism, sexism, misogynoir), the idea that Biden has “politicized” what has always been a political process is just asinine.

The idea of a hierarchy of races is as old as the concept of race itself (and as old as racism, which basically existed first and was then encapsulated into a larger idea of “race”). Historically, white racists (both individuals and larger institutions) have often carved out exceptions for particular racial or ethnic…

That’s fair, thanks.

Republican racism has been showing extra hard since Biden reaffirmed his pledge to nominate a black woman. Susan Collins was on ABC this weekend claiming that Biden had “politicized” the process and it had added to the “perception that the court is a political institution like Congress.” (Spoiler alert that ship…

In his case I don’t know if the dude was racist so much as he was sexist. He was after all, championing a man with brown skin. But I nonetheless get your point.

It wasn’t an “inartful tweet”, it was racist. Own it, asshole.

When my dad heard that Voldemort was called “he who must not be named” he started calling Thomas “the justice who must never speak”. He cracks himself up every time.

Well, 3 of them (Roberts, Kavanaugh, Coney Barrett) worked on Bush v. Gore, but at least we kept Nixon’s quisling (Bork) off the bench.

And Joe Biden can’t fuck this up, the talent pool is way too deep

How many winners have the GOP put on SCOTUS?

The reactions of the right fortify and justify the need for a black women to be selected.  And Joe Biden can’t fuck this up, the talent pool is way too deep
