A lot of you don't read and it shows.

Weird because he's viewed favorably by the Black, Hispanic, and Asian communities. More so than Whites, in fact.

McConnell called statehood for Puerto Rico and Washington D.C. "socialism" for fucks sake!!!
July 19, 2019 at 01:25
This is so fucking funny because the Democrats nominated Clinton who was a centrist and she nevertheless lost, but sure let's just try again for a ban...

not at all

In this case, only if it can be substantiated.

I don't dispute the point that social mobility is nearly non-existent, or that worker wages have stagnated, that economic inequality has erupted, or t...

Sure, but economically marginalized people also voted for Clinton or supported Sanders so you're not making a meaningful point.
July 18, 2019 at 02:04
The problem with this analysis and explanation for Trump is that it is predominantly a materialist one, i.e. that people who voted for him did so beca...

At best, they are in the business of making or saving their customers money. Not "happy".

It's extremely terrifying how normalized white ethno-nationalism is becoming.

What's very frustrating about these types of polls on socialism is that the term is never defined for the people being polled, so there's only so much...

Goes to show how barren theology has become, when modern arguments for God are nothing more than restated millennium-old syllogisms

Like I said, hilarious over-analyzing over what's in actuality a straightforward answer. One of Nike's biggest brand ambassadors criticized the design...

None of you are Nike's target audience so it's really funny that you think they should give a shit what you think

Cioran is one of my favorite philosophers, but if you want to understand his aphorisms it is more appropriate to understand them within 1) the context...
