Here's the bottomline. The people that marched in Charlottesville were...by definition? Terrorists. They are many types of terrorists, Islamic, Eco, Left Wing...what have you. But that's what that group of people were, Terrorists. We should not be shy in calling these people by that name. Christ one of these assholes was trying to re-enact Oklahoma City last weekend . Don't think of Dick Spencer how one would think of a normal right wing voice (a Ben Shapiro, a Sean Hannity or a Rush Limbaugh). Think of him as you would an Isis Sympathizer.

https://twitter.com/historyinflicks/status/897549397671632896 Let's go back to the point of this thread which was to mock centrist 3rd wave neolibs. These people should be ashamed of themselves. They're spineless cowards who enabled republican policies, enabled trump and led us down this path. How come they never take responsibility for their actions? As I've said before. I don't agree 100 percent with DSA/Socialists but you know? they're way a head of the curb on civil rights than any of these asswipes. But they always find a way to leap in front of actual progress made by those groups I just typed about to get credit for it. The Hillary wing wasn't out there in Charlottesville going against literal nazi's, but the DSA sure as poo poo was.

Unsure of where to post this, but this country is in a very dark, bad state. We've had a lot of problems with race and class struggles in this country. They got swept under the rug during much of the 70's, 80s, 90's and 2000's. Ignoring them and passing the buck has led us to this moment. This isn't a Trump thing. This has been a systemic failure by our government to not take care of a lot of these problems. Trump has become the ugly disfigured face of those problems though. The hope of going back to traditional conservative or traditional clinton liberal politics is dead now. As it should be. The question of where things will go from here though is very important. I don't think Trump will serve all 4 years, but my hope is that we're not stuck with an option such that is a redux of the 2012 election. To clarify, No the truth is not in the middle. The truth is going to have to come from the DSA, Left in the hopes of wrangling it back to the middle. That's what needs to be done. A country with two republican party's will lead us to even more fascism.

get that OUT of my face posted:SB Nation has gotten tedious to read ever since vox media took it over and turned it into just another website that cranks out thinkpieces about the same subjects every day, and practices like this are par for the course in online media. that being said, i'm surprised deadspin's glass house isn't completely shattered with all the rocks they've thrown in it ever since tommy craggs took over. fellow univision property av club has gone full bore on saying "lolno" to permanent staff https://twitter.com/jon_bois/status/897134785486880769 I can't blame anyone for saying "stick to sports" any more. I think people are about to go insane in this country and are BEGGING for some sort of distraction from their daily lives. I don't think it's coming from a place of racism or being apathetic about matters. Rather I think a good portion of those people feel like they have little to no power on the subject and just are tired. The obsession with the Kaepernick story is bordering on...bizarre. I don't think people who follow football actually care nor would they want on him their team. It just reminds me of Nick Mullen on CumTown talking about how Comedy was about to go way down the shitter in the age of trump. The "BUT SERIOUSLY GUYS, THINGS ARE hosed UP" faux outrage is wearing thin on people.

Otherwise...yeah you're risking being unemployed. I still don't know why he doesn't go to Canada. I mean Warren Moon and Doug Flutie got Grey Cups out of doing it. Both actually came back better than they were. Seems like it'd be better for his career. He'd probably dominate and get a Grey Cup out of it.

man, that's an incredibly mean, snobbish, and condescending thing to say to people. the problem with kaepernick articles- and thinkpieces in general- is that none of them say anything new. if you've read one of them, you've read them all. the entire reason i read and participated on SB Nation was because it was fun and didn't have articles like these all the time, which was a refreshing change of pace from post-craggs Deadspin. then vox took over, kaepernick happened, it got less fun, and i haven't been on for months (although the last straw was that eye-searingly awful redesign in his screenshot) it's not even about divorcing sports from politics, it's about not being tedious to read. but if you want a site like that for sports, movies, tv, music, video games, etc., you're out of luck. they don't exist anymore
