itt: angry men crying

See, I had a fairly different reaction to the story of Laura Lee. I’ll preface by saying I’m not an active, church going Christian, though I have read a fair bit of Christian theology. But I regard it, and apply it here, as an element of culture, not the dogma of a true believer.

The Queen is an unelected monarch whose wealth and power are direct results of colonialism, the slave trade, racism, theft, and corruption. Because of that she and her heirs will never be “relatable” no matter how many photo ops the plebs get. Getting rid of the Queen and her leech of a family is a bureaucratic mess…

I know it’s an ongoing case so even with the evidence we can’t assume he’s guilty but...

62% of Americans support some form of student debt forgiveness, according to CNBC. It should be pretty easy to show that the extra money that people have to spend every month is just going back into the economy.

I don’t know how there is always a comment like this in every forum about this topic:

So what you're saying is that when a moderate adopts progressive policies during his campaign, we should just know he's lying and not expect anything beyond "not being Donald Trump"? Because I'm not sure that you've got a long term strategy there...

who wrote this -- a dog? it’s anti-cat propaganda, it is.

Biden is gona fuck around until after the ‘22 election when Dems lose one or both houses of Congress, and then the chance to do this will be gone.

It’s a wildly popular position with broad support among voters that would measurably make life better for tons of people. ... So obviously it’s a real head scratcher for Dems.

It sounds very focused on the white narrative about the west. Adding in gritty realism about their hardships doesn’t mean it’s not still playing into the mythology about how brave white people (and a former confederate soldier) took over from brown people. I don’t need the show to be social commentary but it would be…

Between the headline and the review, I guess I expected more social commentary or something? More regarding the winning of the west being won over people—and what kind of people, and all kinds of people were doing the winning? I do like Taylor Sheridan (Hell and High Water ++, some of the rest I appreciate), but his…

At least you’ve got Avatar on the list. My god...such a terrible screenplay: completely cliched plot, cardboard characters, and so utterly predictable with how the cliches played out, that you’d most likely would’ve fallen asleep in the theater. (I nearly did.)

The freeze thaws on February 1, 2022. Maybe he doesn’t care if the party gets its ass kicked in the midterms but given that it doesn’t look like his Build Back Better is going anywhere (gee the right-winged so-called moderate Dems aren’t passing it after getting their way who would’ve thunk it?) a big ol’ hike in…

Oh shit remember that? Student loan cancellation? $15 minimum wage? police reform? Maybe we’ll all get a chunk of WV coal from president Manchin instead. Seems about as likely as any of those other things.

Unless his first words are “I’m cancelling college debt”, he should just stay home.

When they lose they’ll just blame it on the young people and the leftists that they actively despise and make no effort to court. Somehow the only lesson they ever learn is “Maybe we should be more conservative” so they’ll just keep inching right until we don’t even have the illusion of 2 parties. 

Ya, it boggles my mind that the Democratic strategy is still “court middle-of-the-road people” as if there are any of those left at this point.

yah Falcon, aside from tackling the reality of what a Black captain America would mean and Bucky’s own bias, was very uninteresting.
