theflyingorc posted:when Trump loses these people are absolutely going to lose their minds. He really is the last great hope for disenfranchised racists - they're literally waiting for him to take power so they can finally act out revenge fantasies on nonwhites I can only imagine how much extra security Clinton and her team is going to end up needing as November gets closer, especially if she's never been behind in a (reputable) poll and it's October. I hope one of the first things she does after being sworn in is tell the DHS to get their asses back to work tracking right wing militias and other groups we stupidly stopped keeping tabs on because a report pointing out the far right as a bunch of dangerous crazies made the crazies sad.

Hillary Clinton's economy speech was notable for what she didn't doquote:On the face of it, this was a pretty uneventful speech: Clinton didn’t break with her previous positions or announce any bold new initiatives. In an address billed as her vision for the economy, she articulated a vision of government broadly similar to that backed by President Barack Obama and within the current mainstream of the Democratic Party. I thought it was pretty transparently obvious that Clinton would not feel the need to pivot toward the center when faced with the sack of flaming medical waste that is Donald Trump, but it's nice to see some confirmation

Popular Thug Drink posted:i dont even think the internet necessarily makes people stupid, it just allows stupid people to find each other and mobilize in some sort of jerk flock at lightning speed The Internet Makes You Stupid is the raison d'etre of this entire website. Don't believe me? Look at what the Internet did to Lindy West's troll, who she apparently couldn't help but like in real life and had pleasant relationships with the women in his life. The Internet Makes You Stupid because the Internet is a dysfunctional developing country whose shittiness users adapt to, but only become really cognizant of once they become expatriates (i.e. get off the Internet for a while) and look at it from the outside.

Does this guy not remember the 60s, like at all? Cause everything post ~61 doesn't meet the criteria at all. 1968 alone was one hell of a year.

Stultus Maximus posted:All important movements in 21st century America require snacks. I know a girl in California who extremely consistently brings water and snacks to left-ish protesters. Actually, in a similar but slightly scarier story, one of my Polish language professors when she was a teenage girl did the same thing for the striking shipyard workers that helped kick off the Solidarity protests in Communist Poland. What I'm saying is, logistics are important and protesters need to eat too.

"Look guys I just want to take American back to the 1960s, ideally before 1964, when American was America and we didn't have all these problems from undesirables and hang rebel flags all over the White House. If you read that the wrong way then it's you who are the real racist. :hertiage:" Nice try Kongressman but you're going to need to try harder than that if you want your state to compete with Kansas, Texas, and others for Biggest Red Shithole in America.

I was skeptical about the whole "organic" "grain that's technically not related to wheat maaaan" "gluten free" stuff, since I'm the kind of idiot who had never heard of spelt before, but the pretzels are delicious. How do they compare to sourdough pretzels, or honey wheat pretzels?

Popular Thug Drink posted:oh for sure, what i'm saying is that it should be a known fact now that speaking your honest, reasonable opinion on the internet leads to a nonzero chance that someone with nothing better going on in their life might actually try to kill you for it. i had a guy call my grandmother once and called her a rotten bitch after he figured out my irl identity from some political board i used to post on where i made fun of his opinions. this isn't really new to the internet, but is a consequence of mass media (old letters to the editor are full of this stuff) but you can go from total rando to most hated man on /pol today in the span of a week and it's really dumb and it honestly makes me hate the internet and everyone who uses it Stay safe, Brian Boyko.
