how can you make white nationalist views respectable?

Donald Trump's angry ramblings are not so much substantial as symbolic. They send a message to White America: 'we have not forgotten you'. His politics are not new; Reagan's paeans to race baiting set the tone for his campaign as much as Bill Clinton's ritual sacrifice of the black, disabled Ricky Ray Rector. Despite all this, there has never been so much as a hint of fascism or authoritarianism in the United States. For all of the spilled ink about privacy made in the Bush and Obama presidencies, how many people feel supervised and controlled? For all the complaints about police brutality, police killings are not at a high - and crime is at a low. Despite the cries of racism, aren't the minority communities of the United States richer and more well represented than they ever have been before. Things really are getting better all the time.

It's easy to panic about Donald Trump, but he's nothing different to what we've had before. If we want to moving forward, we should unite behind the President-Elect and rally around the institutions that have brought and continue to bring America's unbridled success.

you can question if they're sincere, you can say they represent legitimate greivances in need of a hearing by conventional elites, you can just implicitly take their views as just as credible because you're institutionally blind to doing anything else, you can denounce concerns as hysterical, you can overvalue all of the other institutions that are supposed to hold them back and the character of the Good Men that will, I'm sure, stop them if and when

or you i guess can do what mother jones did and just spend your time talking about how good looking they are

NATO's seriously creaking at the seams these days

turkey's trying to get the alliance to divest themselves fully from kurdish militants and nobody knows what the hell trump's going to do

i'm guessing that stoltenberg didn't envisage this poo poo going into his job

the europeans decided to ante up this year with funding though, i think everyone is on board with the need to maybe take back some defense responsibility from the US

there's also talk of making european nuclear deterrence more of a franco-british responsibility

also if we reduced GPA gating in professional programs

premeds are the flightiest, most breakdown-prone motherfuckers in the world

they all have messianic egos and are engaged in a course of study almost totally dependent on rote memorisation of huge blocks of data
