The parks are there for people to conjugate and share food. It’s discrimination to turn people away because of their living status. www.reddit.com/r/videos/…
I thought the “White Lives Matter” shirt was appropriate in the context of a political commentator and a mainstream agitator trying to make an edgy point. Worse things have happened. On it’s merits, it certainly made me stop and think about the movement for a moment. If I were Candace Owens, and assuming I wasn’t an opportunistic slime-ball and actually believes in what I’m doing, would a political movement like Black Lives Matter inherently offend me?

Pretty cool how little he understands the democracy he presided over. He doesn’t have authority to declassify many of those documents. He was President of the United States, not the known universe. www.reddit.com/r/facepal…
Bill Maher listens to the alt-right propaganda and then assumes it’s true and then blames the Democrats for being so crazy. I’ve noticed this a few times in his monologues. www.reddit.com/r/enterta…
My dad used to pick cotton and grew up without electricity, he would sooner immolate himself than vote for Tim Scott. www.reddit.com/r/southca…
These people aren’t hot potatoes, you can’t just dump a bag of migrants on someone’s doorstep and expect it to sit there for a week. You really have to wonder what goes through these people’s minds. www.reddit.com/r/WhitePe…
The “money’s going to Ukraine” part is what makes this guy a bad person. Seems like the greatest superpower in history could fix the water of a small town and support those suffering from an invasion all at the same time. This guy doesn’t want to help either one, he just wants to use one to browbeat the other. Cool stuff, republicans. www.reddit.com/r/facepal…
“Abolish the IRS” is the only thing Conservatives say that resonates with me as a progressive. But it’s a lot like ‘defund the police’ where the tag line doesn’t quite align with the policy proposal. You don’t really abolish the IRS, you point them exclusively at businesses and take individuals off the hook. You could restructure the income tax as a VAT, make life a lot easier on everyone, and even the people who are not here legally are paying their fair share.

I’m fairly certain every President moving forward will have a criminal trial. So be it, I’m willing to sacrifice several Obama’s to the alter of justice at this point if it means Republicans see actual accountability today. www.reddit.com/r/obama/c…
Trump supporters hear loud noise in the back, get spooked, call for civil war. For the record, calling for civil war is like the definition of treason soooo www.reddit.com/r/politic…
Personally, I think it would be OK for her to bake in the oven another decade, but she’s one of the few politicians I can take seriously at this point so why not? www.reddit.com/r/politic…
The party of small government wants to tell you who you can sleep next to at night and under what conditions you can leave a marriage. Insanity, these people must be stopped. www.reddit.com/r/politic…
I’ve lived in SC my entire life. Libertarianism is big here, and it’s been co-oped by the GOP and their culture wars. People are thoroughly convinced that somehow Trumpism washes out to libertarianism. So even when you point out the clown car and how many people fit into it, they’re willing to excuse it because the ends justify the means. In their view, the Democrats are the ones out-foxing them at every turn so they view this as the late stages of a zero-sum game.

The Supreme Court is starting to look like a Christian Fascist organization www.reddit.com/r/terribl…
Two other branches of government exist to provide a check and balance to the courts. Democrats run both those branches of government. I wonder if there are any constitutional remedies to this current situation? Maybe someone should kill the filibuster and unpack the courts? Just a suggestion… www.reddit.com/r/politic…
When Democrats are “deeply concerned” that means there’s no plan to prevent it and we’re just waiting for the shoe to drop www.reddit.com/r/Preside…
I can’t tell if the right is actually sick of wokeness, or just want to weaponize it to further hurt the Disney corporation. Maybe it’s a little of both, but either way I’m getting tired of everything becoming trench warfare against a battalion of dipshits. The truth is, as a secular progressive I show _enormous_ tolerance towards the Christian right and their backward lunacy. This tolerance is the problem, it’s given them the breathing room to dismantle things, and their stupidity has given them all the cover they needed as it’s hard to see these clowns as any kind of serious threat.

This comment section is why reducing mass shootings will be so difficult in America. In the same breath, people admonish our government for refusing to act over decades while saying they can’t get rid of their guns in case the government moves against them. We’re a nation where, daily, a gunman goes into a building with impunity and kills as many people as possible. If we can’t get past GO on a concept like reducing gun ownership, then we’re already too far gone.

Those politicians largely caused this problem, could fix it, refuse to acknowledge it, and are actively making it worse. Anyone who wants to walk up to that stage and say so has my support. www.reddit.com/r/AskRedd…
I think Democrats have to get real and start driving these idiots out of our politics. If you tolerate the fringe, it becomes mainstream. If the left seriously has the public on its side, then it’s time to show it. www.reddit.com/r/enterta…
