I'm not really sure how avocado toast is now a sick burn on millenials all of a sudden

Like, the only avocado-toast-related meme I'm aware of is someone saying "millenials could afford houses if they didn't buy avocado toast" and immediately being dunked on by everyone at once because it's the dumbest take on Earth. How is reminding millenials how dumb that take was supposed to be a burn on them?

The car lawsuit thing is a reference to Bernie saying you can't sue gun manufacturers for making a product that functions as intended, right

how do you parse that in-metaphor as "making a bad car"? If you buy a car and use it to run over a socialist at an anti-Nazi rally it does not become a "bad car" and her family can't sue the manufacturer for making vehicles that have mass :confused:

everything about this take is so loving dumb

like, a lot of hillary supporters live in a wealth bubble but still happen to be in a world of weinsteins. the only major injustices they see is are social ones, not the financial ones.

The best part is that the people who are convinced that they are the rational, reasonable ones who are immune to fake news continue to spread verifiably false information.

Hmm, yes, Bernie never mentioned abortion during his campaign at all, ever!

Their angle is that they're too rich to benefit directly from economic reform and too selfish to care about issues that don't directly touch their identity, so they'll oppose it by slandering any proponents as sexist.

"Friends and supporters sometimes describe Gabbard as “poised,” which may also be a way of acknowledging that she is not particularly spontaneous. She engages audiences with a voice that is slow, reassuring, and faintly hypnotic. Her resting expression is a sympathetic smile, and she has perfected an effective double-hug technique: a warm, long embrace when she meets someone, and an even longer one when saying goodbye, as if to signal that something meaningful has transpired. “We love you, Tulsi,” someone called out when she finished."


I can see why the establishment hates her, she sounds like she might be able to win things.

Thank you. Feels good to be back in SuckZone, the air is good here. The trees are the right height.


Man that "Autopsy" is awesome. I like that anecdote from the Nation article about the congressman. Hillary and the Dems campaigned and asked for people's votes, but there was always an air of "well have you seen the other guy? you kinda have to vote for us" instead of actually trying to appeal to people's direct needs.
