Hmmmm, it appears that your headline is wrong because I actually can support a free press while also supporting the arrest of Julian Assange. As your own website notes, he was working with Manning to actively crack passwords and subvert security to gain access to sensitive documents. This is blatantly illegal and

yeah, i don’t buy the induced demand argument. Nobody’s gonna change their commute because they added an extra lane, and if it sucked they’d just go back to the old way.

HOT lanes (“Lexus Lanes”) really are just a way for rich people to skip traffic. 

“Induced demand” isn’t really a thing. People have their commutes and their options, and they generally don’t change because they added a lane or two. Demand increases because demand is always increasing, not because a particular project was completed.

A civil war is impossible because only one side owns guns.

“Freedom of Speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences.”

Of course you would. You’re a piece of shit yourself.

One of my kids recently got a minimum wage job at a union grocery store. Union dues for a part time employee that worked less than 15 hours a week was $100+ membership fee plus $50 a month. He was paying 15% of his gross wages to an organization that had negotiated a pay rate of $0.00 above what was legally required.

Now change “free riders” to corporations and the rich that pay no taxes illegal immigrants  welfare recipients and reread the article.

Define irony:

This article is quite ironic given the splinter writers position on socialism.  Look at America like a union.  Now change “free riders” to illegal immigrants or welfare recipients and reread the article.

Ahem, could this be how the right feels about illegal immigrants?

Them bad guys gon’ get puuunched for sure.

All the pressures of being a professional physical athlete but none of the endorphins from exercise?

I didn’t finish the article cause life is short but that headline seems like it was auto generated by a twitter parody bot.

Ittttttt’s Overbearingly Woke Theater!

“But the Marvel movies are almost too idealistic to really grapple with the more toxic side of masculinity”

remember when The Last Jedi, a movie about kung fu space wizards with magic powered laser swords, grappled with the very serious scourge of “mansplaining”? well now movies about superheros flying around in tights

Is there a second one for sale somewhere so I can finish my pod racer?

I am sure there will be a lovely new anti-bullying program, perhaps named after this unfortunate little girl, perhaps some sort of financial settlement... and consider the matter swept under the rug. The usual response to fights in school, if anything is to suspend both kids. Public schools are more like Chinese
