I quit about a year ago; I logged out with no intention of ever logging back in. The moderation just got unbearable. I know it's a time-honored tradition on internet forums for the posters to complain about the unjust and arbitrary decisions of the moderation team, and that it's also generally...

Depends on how the state house races shake out. If the republicans wind up with majorities in 2/3 of state houses they can call a constitutional convention to pass amendments

Then you should tell that to Kamala Harris and her merry band of Hillary dead-enders who ran a pro-abortion campaign in a strong economy and somehow still lost on a night where abortion protections won decisively

But that’s the thing, abortion protection measures passed in 7 out of 10 states where it was on the ballot, including Missouri, South Dakota, Arizona, and Nevada. It got like 57% of the vote in Florida. People came out for abortion rights. They just didn’t vote for Kamala.

run a Hillary campaign get a Hillary result ig what’s that folk definition of insanity?

wow would you look at that a democratic presidential candidate went chasing moderate republican voters and is going to lose on depressed turnout in her urban base never heard that story before

This whole exchange has been so emblematic of the problem. It's not being expressed privately, it's being expressed *to others*. And the "expressed to others" piece is what makes it weird and creepy and invasive. Sexualizing and slobbering over a woman is an inside thought. I don't want to hear...

They would be able to screenshot those posts and subtweet the user, directing their followers to go comment on and harass that user further. They would be...

I don't think the terms are completely synonymous. To my mind, feasible means theoretically or technically possible: plausible, basically. Workable suggests something that is theoretically unideal, but capable of being put into practice with some degree of reconfiguring, adjustment, or...

it both reads as natural, and is a word I use in my everyday speech

This whole walk-back into a Hillary approach to campaigning is making me question my commitment to this ticket. I don't think I have any place in a party that lauds the "achievements" of a butcher who directly (and unrepentantly) caused the deaths of a million people, nor his daughter who lost...

This **** sucks so much ass, dude

I can’t believe we’re calling this “appearing normal” Yes days after proposing a night of broken glass to cleanse the moral degradation of this country we’re going to go live on tv and advocate for the mass deportation and expropriation of the property of that same group of people for the...
