Oh, did I strike a nerve? Ayn Rand's "philosophy" (it's actually more like a cult, since her sycophants adhere to it unquestionably and dogmatically) of neoliberalism is largely to blame for the past 30 years of massive income inequality, stagnation/decline of working class wages, and corporate intervention in the…

And his potential Supreme Court nominees? Well, If you thought Scalia was a bit too liberal…

Oh, yeah - forgot to mention the litany of climate change deniers he wants to appoint to 'environmental' positions, the Bush-era war hawks he will have lead the military and defense services, the religious fundamentalists that are to head the educational sector, and the Ayn Rand-style capitalists that will run the…

His cabinet proposals are basically an assortment of neoconservatives, corporatists, social Darwins, religious fundamentalists (I didn't mention his proposal to have evolution-denying Ben Carson as Secretary of Education), and white nationalists.

There are few things in this world as truly frightening as Trump's proposed cabinet. Newt Gingrich as Secretary of State? Rudy Giuliani, one of the most authoritarian figures in American politics (next to, of course, Trump himself) as attorney general? Sarah Palin as Secretary of the Interior (therefore in charge of…

So we should bow our heads and submit to authority? Fuck that. These fucking assholes are about to meet the greatest US resistance to occur since the 1960s. No more appeasing, no more neutrality, no more compromising - this is about asserting ourselves and fighting for liberal values like free expression, science,…

Don't be absurd - Trump's cabinet positions will obviously be filled with responsible, qualified candidates, like Rudy Giuliani, Newt Gingrich, Bobby Jindal, Franklin Graham and Sarah Palin.

And roughly 53% of white women will support it.

Don't beat me at my own game - I can't bear to look fatuous!

Hey, it's been a shitting week and I need an easy target to mock. Lighten up, dickhead killjoy.

Would you still make that deal if Trump and co. also received that elixir?

And to think of all that effort Cohen applied to produce that great song only to have it completely botched and made into a mockery by Zack Synder.

Plus Arnold Palmer, Edward Albee, Curtis Hanson, Anton Yelchin, Gary Shandling, Harper Lee, Jacques Rivette, and Abe Vigoda as well.

The way things are going, let's hope to never see "Hayao Miyazaki" and "2016" in a headline.

Phyllis Schlafly?

"I'm entertaining how, I mean entertaining like I'm a star, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fucking amuse you?"

There's nothing wrong with being upset. Personally I am livid. I can't stop thinking of Peter Finch in Network : "I'm mad as hell and I'm not to take this anymore." What I am arguing for is that what we ought to do is channel out righteous indignation in a positive manner, not simply fall into despair. This means…

Because tolerance, civility, goodwill, and decency are no longer in the interests of half the country.

That these people proudly go against the overwhelming scientific consensus and show no care or concern for preserving the earth's environment or nonhuman species is almost what gives me the greatest pause. We are losing the war on climate change so badly right now, yet just as we were finally starting to mount a…

Lest we forget that Trump offered to make his VP candidate "the most powerful vice president in history." [http://www.democracynow.org…]
