I’m sure this guy operated his bulldozer with all of the due care and concern for innocent human life as the IDF bombing campaign that by their own reports have killed twice as many civilians as militants.

Both major parties and most US citizens absolutely condone this shit.
I went to private religious schools until my second year of college. None had the 10 commandments posted anywhere. I know we’re all in agreement that this is a severe violation of the first amendment. As a Christian I hate that these idiots are using my faith as a cudgel (as has happened far too often).
But also, this is incredibly tacky.
Having two different realities is not good. I’m not sure what is to be done about it though. Some people will always choose to believe the easy lie over the difficult truth.
Ignoring Fox and the crazies for a moment, how often have mainstream networks given equal time to climate change deniers and actual scientists, pretending there was a debate where there wasn’t one.
I want to push back a little on “we all agreed on what was and what was not reality.” When there were three TV stations, did any of them highlight police brutality? Overincarceration? The military industrial complex? Anything that would hurt their sponsor’s bottom lines?
The news networks we have today are all owned by large media conglomerates. They range from pro-corporate to pro-fascist. I’m glad that there are enough independent voices that we can hear from people who don’t profit off of the status quo. It’s unfortunate that right wing media is so prevalent and well funded, but if there is an answer to that, it’s not going back to the days when Walter Cronkite, CBS, and Gulf+Western would tell us “That’s the way it is”.
I can’t respect conservatives because lying is their first go to on any issue. Instead of trying to convince people that their plans are good, they just lie about their plans. (Which is unsurprising, because their plans have been proven not to work.)
Did Democrats get what they wanted by running Clinton?
You’ve never heard of a “get out the vote” campaign? I can’t imagine thinking that you can’t possibly convince someone to vote.
Democrats who are actually concerned about Republicans should be pushing hard for ranked choice voting.
These memes make Democrats feel good, but only annoys third party voters.
Most of far leftists you see here with their accusations of “dOiNg a gEnOciDe” were absent from any discussions about Palestine prior to October
This is one of the funnier things I’ve seen a Democrat make up to smear anyone to their left.
I hope that every Republican angry that a Democrat might do something good steps on a LEGO tonight.
I’m sure the FEC will jump right on that.
It is more difficult than a few years ago, especially if you don’t want to get sued or get a threatening letter from your ISP.
I would only torrent with a VPN and a private tracker. It’s certainly not difficult to learn, but absolutely requires some small amount of information to acquire.
“Without the threat of being thrown out onto the street, my workers won’t put up with as much mistreatment.”
If you have kids and aren’t rich, you literally can’t go into business for yourself in the US…if you fail that means your family becomes homeless and loses their health care.
The cruelty and evil helps the rich control the rest of us.
Canonically, if Jesus saw a megachurch, he would start making a whip.
I like my Halloween candy like I like my coffee: without a penis.
Journalistic ethics means disclosing this sort of thing. It probably is good to point out, just so that norms don’t get completely forgotten, but, yeah, this shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Posting Stein’s tweet is a good burn, but not much more.
Applying Stein’s logic to herself: what did she do to “earn” David Duke’s endorsement? That’s easy: she backed Palestine over Israel. Even if a racist happens to agree, that doesn’t make that stance wrong.
Austin Powers was a war criminal!
