if you want an actual "awww" moment in american liberal history, the saga of Adams and Jefferson's friendship, then emnity, then in their twilight years friendship again, is quite good

complete with Adams occasionally writing to Jefferson "you know we fought like hell over xyz thing, do you honestly still believe any of what you wrote, because I still think you're wrong" and Jefferson, the significantly better diplomat, responding "look man at this point we are two old men yelling about what we wish would have happened. it doesn't really matter. have you seen the efforts they've made at writing history about us already? nighmares."

there is a line that particularly seems designed to make any historian reading it immediately get a half-chub, where they're discussing "who, then, will write the history of the American Revolution" and the answer they settle on is "none living now, I'll wager. We were there, and still cannot know the half of it."

Maddow went on a whole long rant blaming third-party voters and she had to grant Hillary 100% of green votes AND 50% of libertarian votes to make the numbers work

Is Stancil really what the next generation of Dems look like? Just the most hideously entitled ghouls who don't even understand why they had to hide their contempt for everyone not exactly like themselves.

Not going to lie, but all this discussion about wether or not Brianna Wu is trans is kinda weird. She's a piece of poo poo no matter if she's trans or cis, and how she identifies has nothing to do with it, even if she's engaging in transphobia (trans people can be transphobic garbage, see Buck Angel).

Since she hasn't said one way or the other, it's not really anyone's job to speculate or to try and out her, simply because it doesn't change the fact that she's a genocide loving shithead.
