Thwomp posted:But here's the thing: so long as Republicans feel that they can survive while sticking with/ignoring Trump, they will. They'll passively sit back while Trump does one outrageous thing after another. More to the point, they understand that most people form their view of the political party in the White House based on the President. If Trump is shown to be a criminal, it hurts them all. It's about political survival; they can likely survive being associated with an incompetent buffoon whose acts they can spin in a positive way. They have to play any criticism of Trump as a partisan attack, and they are going to play it to the hilt, because lol at trying to defend Trump on his record.

KildarX posted:The snow flake thing is infuriating to me, because it's the same people who get bent way the gently caress outta shape about happy holidays or schools not celebrating (insert holiday here) or Donald Trump getting made fun of on SNL. If you wanna call people over sensitive that's fine, but don't just turn around and immediately do the same poo poo. People think offending or deliberately attacking moral principles is bad, but people who get bent out of shape about trivial things are worthy of derision, this isn't that hard to understand. You can complain that these are relative judgments all you want, but you're basically wondering why the guy who was laughing at Cartman poo poo-talking Kyle's mom on South Park got offended when you made fun of his mother and called her a pole smoker. That said, having spent time around a few people who think the right to choose your own pronouns and change them at will is Literally The Most Important Political Issue of the Decade, I can see why other people start to lean towards "anything that upsets these people is funny and good."

IYAAYAS is probably cleaning up his social media presence for either a job in politics or a sensitive hire. But, torch from falling hands: I still think Hillary was unconscionably lazy about infosec, and that the investigation would have been much more aggressive if it had been a lower level functionary. If she didn't know better, she should have. The best thing I could say about her was that she aligned with my views on a few more issues than Trump does (did? Who knows what he actually believes besides his own aggrandizement.) Trump is still worse. He should never have been president. What he did wasn't treason, but between that, and his firing of the FBI director (which was blatant obstruction of justice whether he cares to admit it or not,) and what appear to be serial violations of federal record keeping laws, he ought to be impeached and removed from office.

I believe the Republicans are currently one shy of controlling 3/4 of the state legislatures, which is a particularly egregious failing of California/NY/DC centered Democratic politics.

According to witnesses, the perpetrator was walking down the street, screaming, at 3AM, with a knife. Apparently the arresting officers said he was speaking, but his words didn't make sense. It sounds more like someone having a psychotic break than a premeditated hate crime.

The guy may in fact be racist, but wandering down the street, stabbing a guy for not getting out of your way, then just hanging out at the crime scene waiting to be arrested doesn't match the pattern one would expect of a premeditated or anger provoked assault. Every description of his behavior screams "altered/disordered mental state."

I don't give a poo poo one way or the other, I'm just wondering what led to your (seemingly iron-clad) assumption that this was a case of mental illness as opposed to racial malice. Sure, sans context, someone behaving the way this shithead behaved could suggest they had a mental break. Knowing that they were an active member of an online hate group certainly muddies the waters to the point that I wouldn't feel quite as comfortable making the assumptions and judgements that you seem willing to. "1) Get knife, walk down street screaming at 3 AM 2) Stab the first black person who doesn't show you deference 3) Play crazy when the cops show up 4) This will further the cause of white supremacy because ???? 5) <Missing> 6) Profit/racially pure America" In the case of the Charleston church shooter, his actions, although clearly the product of a damaged mind and horrific beliefs, had an internal logic one could follow. He wanted to kill as many black people as he could and martyr himself for the cause of white supremacy. I don't see that here.
