the conservatives that Sam Seder debated in that Jubilee video were so bad that the online right has convinced themselves that the conservatives were actually the leftists and that Sam was the conservative

If Allison Riggs pulls this off in North Carolina, then the North Carolina Democratic Party had probably a better night than almost any other state party given the terrible election results at the top of the ticket. #NCPol

Climate change is hitting workers first and worst. At the same time, inequality is skyrocketing. That’s why labor is leading on climate: to build a clean energy future that actually works for working people.

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

One way to understand people is look at where their empathy extends. Bethany Mandel wants us to befriend and forgive Neo-Nazis, but is a fountain of bile when it comes to anyone just trying to live their lives in a way she disapproves of

Musk is an entitled oaf, bumbling into a fragile internet ecosystem and breaking it as he tries to find any way to make money other than those Twitter has proven to be successful at. Selling data to AI companies will not pull him out of this hole.
