If you still believe in the mythological “2023 moderate Republican” then I’d maybe be careful throwing around words like “clownishly.” 

I’m not terribly interested in defending the often murderous bombing raids waged by the Allies against German cities which incinerated so many people, and which I frankly think were downright barbaric in and of themselves (WWII, for me, is the absolute nadir of humanity, and you only need to look to the actions of the

I am flummoxed that the take here is that Johnson is somehow one of those “broke boys”, instead of some mixture of the evils of Republican loopholes (and competent exploitation thereof) and the torrent of improper disclosure (and other financial) scandals even Jez has been covering

Bibi’s “help Hamas to help Israel” strategy is well known. There’s no conspiracy or leaps in logic here. It’s been openly discussed in Israeli and Arab circles for years.

I don’t understand why nuance is so hard for people here. Hamas can be totally wrong, and Israel’s response to Hamas can be totally wrong. Don’t know why so many people think they have to pick a side and pretend it’s all rosy.

Amy Schumer has been a shit person for awhile now but her reaction to all this puts her on a whole other level of asshole. Fuck her. 

Yep. I have no problem describing Hamas’s slaughter of 1,400 Israeli civilian, wounding of 5,400 more, as despicable barbarism. I’m confused about why I would describe Israel’s actions that have slaughtered twice as many children as anything other than despicable barbarism.  But I have this weird thing where I think

Counterpoint - who gives a shit that she fucked on camera?

You continue to cherry pick what you respond to

The GOP has been, explicitly and without consent, fucking the people of the United States for at least 70 years and didn’t have the shame to keep it from being recorded. If the Fuckface Party isn’t ashamed of their own actions they don’t have the right to try to shame anyone else.

It’s because it’s a stupid question. She’s a qualified candidate and the GOP’s campaign is solely based on misogyny. 

Nice copypasta, spanky. 

Yes. You’re way, way off here. Why should a qualified, educated candidate well-respected in her daytime job exclude herself from a position she’d be qualified to hold because of the misogynistic attitudes of the opposition in regard to sex work?

I have plenty of outrage for the GOP. But for doing the most obvious fucking thing, to win an election? Point to a video that was posted on the internet?

Put something up on there, paywall or not, it’s out there.

released it to for public consumption.

You asked if you were off base. The answer here is “yes.” Moving the goalposts isn’t likely to change that. And clearly you are very much not happy to be shown a different perspective. 

Yes. And you know it.

I see a lot of folks who seem to want to jump down my throat like I personally have a problem with pornography.

Underhanded and sleazy tactics to hopefully deflect from utterly shitheaded ways of thinking that they know better than, you know, everyone???
