Isn’t shaving one’s head an “empty performative stunt”? It doesn’t provide any benefit to the cancer patient.

If my calculations are correct, this car is smaller than a football field.

I dunno, friend. Maybe the title doesn’t contain the entire contents of the book.

That’s the problem with electoralism. Too many people just figure they can turn in a piece of paper every 2-4 years and that will save us from fascism.

I believe in voting as harm reduction, but nobody is coming to save us.

British food made Englishmen the best sailors in the world.

SFW furry? There’s kinda no such thing.

You realize that you’re the one sexualizing them, right?

There absolutely are people who have a fursona or participate in the fandom in completely SFW ways. A fursona tells you exactly nothing about their sexual preferences. Honestly you sound exactly like homophobes insisting that two boys holding hands is obscene. Just because you equate a fursona with sex doesn’t mean that every furry thinks the same way.

The party of Identity politics.

People seem to think the Dems are so pro-trans when they don’t really do anything. Republicans just come up with random ways to make trans people’s lives more difficult for no reason.

a gold digger

the husband

Why use a perjorative for her and not him?

Surely the 65 year old marrying a 24 year old deserves exactly as much shame as she does. Do you think his motives are any less selfish than hers?

One day, maybe white people will be held responsible for other white people the way you hold minorites responsible for their families. Maybe then you’ll understand how dumb it is to cherry pick the few worst of you, and pretend that they’re representative of the bunch. It is amazing how many white liberals are excited to see innocent people punished because someone who looks kinda like them voted for Trump.

Question: do you do anything besides voting? Did you phonebank? Canvas? Do you work in your community: volunteer at a soup kitchen, community garden, etc?

You’re looking for someone to blame, but arguing on the internet isn’t going to solve anything. We have four years to organize, protect, and uplift each other. There are people that need our help.

Liberals are pretending the electoral college doesn’t exist because it destroys your point. In most states, your vote has no chance of affecting the outcome. If California is ever in play, that means Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida are Red and the Republican has already won.

Swing states voters have a much tougher decision to make, but it still boils down to the same thing: You’re telling voters to vote the way you want them to. If a candidate wants people to vote for them, they have to support issues that they care about.

The buck stops with Kamala. The number of people who voted blue down the ticket but otherwise at the top shows that. We ran a terrible race, that got going way too late because Biden prevented us from having a real primary. Blaming voters is not a winning strategy. The Dems need to learn their lesson and earn back trust from the working class.

What part of “undocumented immigrants can’t vote” did you miss there?

You’ve constructed this image of undocumented immigrants who support Trump, which is plainly stupid. In any group, maybe some people are idiots. But you’re trying to pretend that that’s ALL undocumented immigrants, masking your bloodthirst behind a few “If” statements.

Volunteer for a local charity that helps immigrants. If you see a bunch of MAGA caps then you might have something to say. I don’t expect that to happen.

It is both. It is a symptom of the inequality that my parents suffer and a driver of mine. Generational poverty is terrible for a society.

I think some people are reading an attack where none is meant. The article isn’t chastising people for helping their kids. It’s pointing out that that help is necessary now in ways that it was not before.

The article is “people cannot excel without support and if we like to imagine ourselves as a meritocracy we need to fix that”.

Okay.

So you are suggesting that an appropriate response to a humanitarian crisis is “good luck with that” because…some of their relatives voted Republican?

Do you feel responsible for all of your relatives, or is it just immigrants?

Did the article say it’s “not the super wealthy billionaires driving inequality” or did you just add that?

It’s good to talk about ALL drivers of inequality, don’t you think? The article is correct to point out that in today’s economy, if you don’t have your parents support, you have many fewer opportunities. That is a systemic issue that society should try to rectify.

Woohoo, that’s my boss! Explains a lot about the company.

Fun fact: we had to “return to office” last year. I had to move away from all my friends to a red state. Come to find out, there’s practically nobody in the office either. All of our work is done over zoom. It was just a “quiet layoff”, but I couldn’t find another job in time to quit.

That cat is high AF.

Yeah, I wonder why undocumented immigrants didn’t vote for Kamala…

Jesus Christ, every thread about deportations has some moron talking about leopards.

Undocumented immigrants can’t vote. I hate to take away whatever satisfaction you’re getting from human suffering here, but it is categorically not “leopards eating faces”.

Is that 39% the percentage of Asian Americans who voted for Trump? I bet most of those are rich enough that they don’t have to worry. What percentage of your demographic voted Republican? Do you deserve to be punished for them?

The world isn’t just and these people aren’t getting what they deserve. Put this energy into volunteering for organizations trying to help people. We have to stick together to get through the next four years.
