It should be noted that Hilary Clinton forecasted, during one of the debates, what Trump's draconian immigration policy would look like.
June 17, 2018 at 18:47
None of this is relevant to the specific matter I'm discussing: Trump's zero tolerance policy. There is no excuse for separating a child from their pa...

Punishing protesters to own the libs. Got it. So fucking what? What does any of that have to with the child separation policy?
June 17, 2018 at 12:49
During this time, regarding the prior policy, families were held together for "no more than 21 days", after which both parents and child(ren) were rel...

The privilege is that everyone else's problems are identity politics. While "my" problems are simply politics.
June 16, 2018 at 18:31
Identity politics have existed since the Roman Republic. They have since been vital in supplying universal suffrage, civil rights, LGBT rights, worker...

What kind of crap poll is this where 'Yes' isn't even an option?

The Trial had an ending, but Kafka didn't complete the book. There is a 6 month time jump that is rather disorienting. Personally I didn't find K. ver...

This is simply incorrect. This policy was implemented by the Trump administration, and it can be reversed by the Trump administration. Trump, surprise...

The question isn't about equality of punishment, it's about the punishment itself. And campus protests aren't exclusive to Left activists. Law enforce...

Are you in a Krasznahorkai novel?

I literally provided a link.

Also the policy of separating immigrant parents (illegal and legal alike) from their children is, to my mind, the worst US atrocity since the War in I...

Highly ironic that members here claim the Left is stifling the First Amendment when conservatives are doing that in the literal sense.

Indeed that's what a number of polls over the course of 2016 found, but I wonder how much of that was due to the overreaction of the email scandal.

According to the report Comey, "numerous times", used a personal email while conducting official FBI business, the content of which was "unclassified"...
June 14, 2018 at 18:43
The overarching issue is that using personal email can expose important, classified documents and yet despite being practiced by Comey, Trump, Trump's...

Trump apologists, or those merely amused by his antics, wanna defend this?

Well I wouldn't touch him with a thirty nine and a half foot pole.
June 14, 2018 at 01:29
Trump loves strongman authoritarians. Always has.
June 14, 2018 at 00:43
It's worrying that many people take him seriously, and that he's considered a leading conservative intellectual today. Nothing but senseless raving.

I'll admit Molyneux is an otherwise great last name.

I remember when a fan donated a dollar and he flipped out. He also claimed he had cancer, but I wouldn't be surprised if he made it up.
June 13, 2018 at 13:29
Which country should I root for in the World Cup now that the USA's not in it?
June 13, 2018 at 13:22
What's most interesting about Molyneux (in fact, the only interesting thing) is that he is in many ways the progenitor of the alt-right pseudo-intelle...
