I don't believe it's sexist to state that women are attracted to money. Money is sexy to anyone, and it's our sexist culture that dictates men should be the ones earning and flaunting the money. Suggesting a young woman might be attracted to and get involved with an older man because he is a rich and famous TV star is neither a disparaging comment about her morals nor about the nature of "women, amirite."

At the very least it couldn't have been his personality so this is really the only explanation that checks out for why anyone would hang out with Bill Maher short of blackmail or bribery.

Well somebody makes up his audience of jabbering morons who clap at his every smug "joke." Maybe he would pull out his penis and then pause for effect, and she would clap and go "whooo!"

Quote of the day, “The main thing I would say is that nothing’s free. If someone offers you something for free, treat it as if they’re offering you heroin and think about the repercussions of what is free and what is a drug, an addicting drug like heroin and the ramifications of that. There’s nothing free. It just means somebody else is gonna pay for it, you don’t see them. So the plumber, the welder, the carpenter, the people who don’t go to college are being asked to pay for your education.” ~ Rand Paul, on public education.

Those planned hunts say really all you need to know about someone's character or lack thereof. If gun culture wasn't such a thing, I assume it would be more efficient and satisfying for these types to just reach into the box and snap the animal's neck with their bare hands then throw away the carcass.

They don't talk about those outings. And it's not an animal in the box.

I don't really understand the no-fly list. Does it mean LEOs are actively trying to find the person to arrest them, or can people live a completely normal life, then go to the airport and suddenly find they aren't allowed to go on the flight for no apparent reason?

Because if it's the latter then I think I'm with the NRA on this. If white people can have guns, everyone should be able to have guns.

But Peter King and the NRA are bad. Also civil liberties aren't real, if gun.

He did, actually. Party politics during the late Weimar period involved constant street brawling, with the political combat leagues (a concept which the SA took to its logical conclusion) regularly invading each others' meetings and going at it hooligan style with boots and truncheons until the cops eventually showed up.

I mean.... yeah, basically. It was a bad frame for them to pick.

Your average person who has implicit biases but doesn't consciously recognize them is going to immediately balk at the idea that "some lives matter more than others? More than MINE?? I don't like that."

It's another case of concision beating explanation every time. Fox assholes get to say "nope, ALL lives matter :smug:" but the activists have to stop and explain institutional prejudice and how power structures DON'T treat black lives like they matter and etc., etc. and by then you've already lost the messaging war.

You've been found out now. Your brain perceives "black lives matter" as "black lives matter more than other ones."

Since all this bullshit came out about how Trump and Rubio (and of course, Carson) are lying fucks where the truth doesn't even loving matter: has Clinton even come close to this poo poo recently? She got called out at her 'shot at' poo poo a while back, and that's all I can remember. The difference is though she didn't accuse the media of doing their job.
