I would rather have a world where we all trust each other and accept that a few people will take advantage of it than a world where folks have to perform disability constantly in order to get the help they need. Let kids have an extra 30 minutes on the test, jesus fucking christ

Gone completely is the notion that every nation has people of genius, talent, and energy, who can contribute to the American project. Instead, if you’re Muslim, you’re presumptively a terrorist. If you’re Chinese, you’re presumptively a spy. If you’re Mexican, you’re in a cartel. Race trumps all.

white people are so privileged we got the only kind of genocide in which the targets are active and enthusiastic participants

sports at universities should be treated like every other extra-curricular: they get their share of the student activities budget just like the drama club and the movie club. if they want more, hold a bake sale.

this is just rank cowardice, the student very obviously disregarded the instructions and the assignment to antagonize her peers and instructors and provoke this exact reaction, society simply can’t function when the people in charge scurry like kicked dogs every time some troll bully says boo

the thing that indoctrinated fundamentalist students like this simply do not get is that people actually believe things and observe the world, which is a thing they've been taught to never do because it would involve challenging dogma. this is a specific pathology of fundamentalism

America has to be redeemed with blood. That is the driving force of my politics at this point. A lot of people need to be buried in shallow graves or spend the rest of their lives in prison, and a lot of people need to live the rest of their lives in penance and ostracism

Don't fine ICE, put ICE agents who did crimes in jail.

Don't fine companies, put CEOs who gave the president obvious bribes in jail.

And so on.

The aim should be for individual, not institutional, accountability.

Did a university obviously violate the first amendment rights of its faculty to suck up to Trump? Don't seek to fine the university, *seek to jail its president and trustees.*

People make decisions, people bear consequences.

Miller and his cabal of criminal toadies are turning us into a rogue nation whose foreign policy is guided not by the rule of law, or even national interest, but a lurid vision of society as a constant struggle between the white man and the subhuman races, against which all violence is permitted

“Literal Nazis are running our national security and using its agencies to advance a Nazi agenda” seems like a scandal that merits some ongoing drumbeat coverage, especially when there’s some new evidence of it on a near-daily basis

“Your empty intellectual property blockbuster is not as good as or as fun as or as smart as the movie made about the plastic Mattel doll” is both a valid and a damning criticism of most modern blockbusters.

“Barbie” is not, say, “Andrei Rublev” or “Come and See.”
