Much like when he shat on Bill for his own history of sexual assault, calling out the media is something that Trump is technically correct to do but it can't be forgotten that it's coming from an absolutely deplorable place: A likely rapist who just wants to deflect from his own bullshit/A fascist who literally believes he should never be covered negatively.

do clinton voters and obama supporters like not see anything wrong with how the democratic party handled the financial crisis with respect to wall street fraud. i'm just a simple man trying to understand here.

As long as they did something potentially good or even just "okay" for a group that voter/supporter/whoever cares (or pretends to care) about, then no. No they don't.

Because the goal is to pull themselves up that high so that they in turn can get away with that poo poo.

when a person believes people are fundamentally good and honest about their motivations, they're gonna get taken to the fuckin cleaners

charter schools are one of those things with a lot of appeal in the abstract because you can Do Things Different

that they're hilarious money laundering schemes in reality is easy to blame on the actors rather than the concept vOv

Given how lucrative deray has made his "activism" it's really hard to see how he's been "taken to the cleaners." dude knows exactly what the gently caress he's doing, and it becomes more apparent when you remember that his tenure as HR director for Baltimore schools was marked by ruthlessly firing teachers - directly in-line with TFA's union-busting bullshit.

Dude's not stupid or naive by any means.

THIS. DOES. NOT. EXCUSE. BEING. ALT. RIGHT.

This does however make me wonder if a lot of people were pushed into this because of it being a reaction to the most toxic involved in Id. Pol movements.

imo people get pushed into the direction they were already leaning

Manchildren often get really angry at actions having consequences, yes.

In general the alt-right always struck me as being buoyed by the reactions of folks running into a sudden inability to do or say whatever the gently caress they want without getting called on it.

That was a bit of s surreal thing to see her do. Good for her though. I still think Kyle Kulknski's theory about "libertarian leftism v. authoritarian leftism" is a very accurate portrayal of the two sides in a lot of ways. I think Laci could actually make feminism more powerful of an idea if she does grow for what it's worth.

Why do these people think this way?

It's not that they "think that way," it's that it's an easy way to silence and marginalize people whose identities intersect with their own but who have come to different conclusions. The people who make that bullshit argument featured in that tweet know full well that that they're spouting bullshit, but doing it lets them create the illusion of a 100% united front that can be used like a sledgehammer against other people they disagree with.

I'll never actually understand "I'm not going to tell you poo poo, look it up yourself" mindset. You have someone there who, assumedly, wants your perspective on your struggles so as to better understand them . And if they are sincere about this, google is probably the last loving thing you should send them to because they're likely going to come across a lot of loving bullshit written by terribly racist, sexist, homophobic, and just generally bigoted people (and some will be better at hiding this than others) that is only going to gently caress things up.

Like I understand why it could be loving exhausting to go over a lot of this poo poo. Especially repeatedly. But surely someone has written or recording something that can be directly shared instead of just telling someone to gently caress off to google and hope they come across it themselves.

I like how minorities who don't agree with people like Joan Walsh, etc are told to shut up.

I love the sneering contempt for minorities calling folks like her out for their racist bullshit and the erasure of their identities as everyone who disagrees becomes just another white male bernie bro. She's relegated those complaints to Bernie Bro Buzzwords.
