Tomorrow’s NYT headline:

He looked like a little kid in tears and hurt. I don’t say that mockingly. I think that’s why it hits hard.

“There’s no crying in football.”
-Literally Roger Goodell.

That was a blunt trauma to the chest hit. That’s why he’s crying and breathing like that. He might be concurrently being evaluated for concussion, because why not, they’re very careful about brain injuries these days. But the reason he’s so shaken up is he got a freight train to the chest that sucked the wind out of…

It looks like he’s struggling to breathe. You can tell how he is “sipping” for air.

Jesus Christ, that’s the long version.

I don’t get that mentality. Trump initiated public acceptance of all these things, not Hillary.

Don’t talk about shit you don’t know you oversimplifying trolls.

Um not so much. Whereas the Hutu and Tutsi had their differences, it was colonialism and the colonists that drove that division to the genocide and civil wars that we are most familiar. It’s not as simple as “Black people hating each other” because powerful and racist outside forces were mostly to blame. Now I don’t…

Yup. I am sick to death of the “I’m not a racist, sexist, ableist, homophobic, Islamophobic jerk who wants people with preexisting conditions to be denied healthcare and approves of sexual assault! I’m just someone who’s entirely okay with racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, Islamophobia, sick people being denied…

There are far too many phrases my mother taught me that challenge this bullshit idea. Birds of a feather, you lie down with dogs, a few bad apples, etc. etc.

I can’t tell if you’re being a troll or not, but my point is in the irony of the situation that many folks are suddenly uncomfortable with an over-generalization about being lumped in with a certain group when the candidate they voted in office spoke in gross over-generalizations about many groups throughout the…

I’m nearly 40 and feel more dismissive toward you than the author. Dismissing other peoples’ arguments as childish is unproductive. You don’t need to pay attention, but you also don’t need to yell at them.

No, POC pointing out the united front that White America often presents when they feel threatened, whether they sound like hillbillies or speak the queen’s English, is not what got us into this. White people themselves did this, and I am not here to coddle, mince words, or pretend.

So, in summary, “Me.”

Yes! I’m so tired of being told we need to work with these people and hear about their hurt feelings. Oh, you’re not a racist/sexist monster, you just voted for one? Well, here’s a cookie and a pat on head you poor dear. No, fuck that. I’m not going to pretend like these people have anything I need to hear. I’m not…

Funnily enough, no, I don’t “realize” these things.

Well, he has added Kris Kobach to his transition team. So everything he said in his speech after winning is basically bullshit, like we assumed it would be. When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

Funnily enough, this is way more “masturbatory” than the article. If you don’t see why this is different that the Bush years (something plenty of other people also lived through), you’re probably not qualified to opine on whether people’s grief/fear about it is legitimate.

Just a guess...show Trump that a large percentage of the country he’s about to be President of will fight back against his bigotry and oppose unjust policies? To encourage Congressional Democrats to push back against bad laws? To re-energize liberals?
