I shudder to imagine what the modern Republican Party would say and do if they were put in the same shoes as FDR back in '41.

Not saying internment camps are cool in any way, what I'm saying is that I doubt they'd have a problem with them in the same circumstances.
Internment camps are literally the only thing that FDR did that conservatives actually like.

SORRY, but as a chef, i DON'T believe McDonald's workers deserve that much money because there's no true skill that goes into the job! I've worked at a McDonald's ( only to get off probation) but everything is already pre- made, all they have to do is either put it in a grill that has a timer, or drop it in a fryer that has a timer.... The food is poo poo and a well trained chimp could do that job. That's not chef's work, therefore, it doesn't warrant chef's pay.....

I mean, when someone does actually make a malicious false accusation of rape that's legitimately messed up, but every bit of evidence points to those cases being overwhelmingly the exceptions to the rule, especially compared to how many rapes never even get to the accusation stage.

Also, there was the interview where Milo more or less admitted to being a sociopath, and it's utterly transparent that he's a vapid provocateur who writes the worst kind of tabloid garbage, AND he works for of all places Breitbart, a site founded by a man whose only purpose in life was to hurt liberals by any means necessary, and said site somehow got even worse after his death. So if someone is unironically resharing Milo's articles, losing respect for them is pretty natural because they've just shown that they like what decent people will immediately recognize as obvious garbage.

Isn't that some dumb game where if you repost it, they contact you and say, haha you fell for my trick, now you have to post one of the following things, and they list all the things you just listed in that post plus more.

I "fell" for something like that twice. Someone posts a really outlandish status that makes them sound completely awful or bizarre (like "Sometimes when nobody's around, I cover myself in grease and squirm on the ground pretending to be a slug"), and everyone who comments on it is sent a chain letter that basically says "Ha! You got fooled!" with a list of outlandish fake statuses to post to keep the chain going.

The "Syrian Army" has an iraqi flag on his helmet.

Edit: After looking it up, that flag was Syria's like 40 years ago and then the Iraqis after that. Is it currently being used?

I have no idea why people do it, but I find it incredibly irritating. You start reading a post from one of your friends and think "This is weird, it doesn't sound like them at all" and it turns out it isn't, it's some bullshit they copied from someone else.
