Just a below average idiot that mostly comments for one of 3 reasons:

Catharsis, expressing exasperation over the general state of things.

Looking to make someone laugh.

Self deprecation.

  • I’ve literally experienced the reason these things are needed, sorry friendo.

    I’m a white guy so I get people talking as if I’m “one of them” and have had interviews where the guy literally said “it’s hard to find white guys for this work, I don’t want some Dominican walking in a store we’re servicing with our logo on.”

    There have been studies that have been done using the exact same resume the only difference was the name. One was the typical “John Smith” and the other was a something like “Jamal Brown.” There was an overwhelming preference to choose John over Jamal. These things are needed because America is a stupidly racist country whether you want to believe it or not. All you need to do is look at the current administration for proof of that.







  • Every article has the potential to be the first one someone is seeing. I think your post has within it an assumption that the same people read all the articles over and over. Even if some large percentage of the people reading it have already read previous articles there is some value in knowing “this is still happening, wow” in regard to Tesla, or “so that’s the stage of the case against Luigi were at now, ok.”

    In a way it’s like finding new trees in the same forest.

    I crossed out the end because half way through writing I forgot you weren’t talking about new information lol





  • That’s how they think. They’re not in the same media landscape as everyone else is.

    This is literally the cause of all our issues. Fucking propagandists creating an alternate “reality” for Magoos to exist within where they are the good guys fighting the evil evil communist far left scum.

    I can blame a Magoo for being so susceptible to hate filled ppropaganda, but I really REALLY fucking despise the propagandists with every fiber of my being. If there were ever a group of people that deserved a firing squad it would be those like Sean Hannity who know exactly what they’re doing…



  • "Courts do not have their own armies or significant police forces. Yet leaders typically obey judges’ orders, because of the political costs of flouting them.

    Usually, voters won’t reward their elected leaders for violating norms, disrupting a stable constitutional order, or taking actions that are intrinsically unlawful, said Aziz Huq, a law professor at the University of Chicago and co-author of the book “How to Save a Constitutional Democracy.”

    But that calculus may not apply to Mr. Trump, who has based his political appeal on gleefully flouting sacrosanct norms. Refusing to accept courts’ authority may actually appeal to the president’s base, Huq said, if they take it as evidence of strength rather than lawlessness."

    Two faced, hypocritical, tribal cult worshipping assholes: ThE pArTy Of LaW aNd OrDeR!

    …my fucking ass you are.
