  1. imma be reeealll annoyed at all the 'well i never really supported him' and 'i didn't actually vote for him' we're gonna start hearing soon. uh huh.
  2. 'slow news week'? we haven't had one of those in a year...i would love to have a few slow news weeks 😕
  3. they're ALL walking around free...Andrew, Dershowitz, etc.
  4. tbf...it takes a strong person who is all-in on something to wrestle their amygdala into submission. she appears to be a lot smarter and better at critical thinking than our own surly maga morons anyway. MTG seems to have done it as well but that's bc she was a true believer from day one, and that bitch still owes David Hogg a public apology.
  5. gotdamn Minnesota is hardcore lol
  6. "... and there's more truth coming"
  7. Trump's vice president is a never-Trumper y'all.
  8. wait... it IS real?? 🤯
  9. i mean it's absolutely insane and also seems exactly like something that would happen. we've been thru the looking glass for quite a while now 😜😆
  10. sounds awesome, im gonna try that on my third viewing this week 😆
  11. wait... is this real?
  12. lol
  13. no! and we have a whole thread discussing why!
  14. it's also not UNfair. it just HAPPENS. over the years i've explained that to a number of young people in my life, when they've faced challenges and obstacles and wanted to claim victimhood... life is NOT out to 'get you' and it is not inherently unfair or unjust...it just IS. a lot of shit just happens and it's up to the individual to assess and respond accordingly - that's where the responsibility lies. life really doesn't give a shit one way or another. maybe i need to talk to these millennial white boys 🤔😄
  15. oh so we've heard enough about the US government kidnapping people and sending them to a foreign torture camp, that's so old news 🙄
  16. ok what the hell even is that Tulane mascot!
  17. ...and post-covid the rest decided they were never going to a movie theater again ☹️
  18. oh that's good
  19. i don't know enough depth about the topic to add anything wholly substantive either way, other than my own anecdote as a white genx female in IT, married to an AA boomer, i definitely have a sense of 'welcome to the party, pal!' towards white millennial male discrimination grievances. like, i get it, but...so? whole groups got a real shit deal for the vast majority of this country's history...and to fix it it seems like another group who traditionally has had it much easier than all those other groups now also might kind of be getting a shit deal? okay...as someone said above, the reality is we are ALL getting a super shit deal right now. so now what? 😕 anyways, mainly i would like to say that other than the expected suspects flinging their usual pop-in troll bs (moreso in the other thread actually)... both this and the MN fraud thread are good examples of intelligent people discussing/arguing the actual merits of a topic including nuance, facts and figures, and varying perspectives. not necessarily finding agreement, but just being able to have/read these discussions with a minimum of trolls poo-flinging is rather refreshing. kudos to most of the participants. i mean where am i??
