- Comment on Not disparaging the dead or anything. But why does it seem in the US we are expected to feel sorry for a person who overdoses on illegal drugs? Didn't they make the choice knowing the outcome? 1 day ago:
Why should I feel sorry for you and answer your question?
- Comment on Do the ultra-rich consume popular media? 5 days ago:
Consider that many people who watched the Joker and idolize him didn’t get that the movie was speaking against the character. Fascists don’t understand camp, and so they don’t get that it’s a critique unless the director explicitly tells them so.

Male FUPA. The lower abdomen above the genitals that is extra fatty on the individual.
- Comment on Can someone give me atleast 5 examples of Democrats being against the working class? 1 week ago:
We can keep telling ourselves Mark Cuban’s “opportunity economy” was good enough but objectively it was a flop with working class voters. Either it was a messaging failure or it wasn’t populist enough, Bernie is saying it is the latter. If it was a messaging failure, then we’re likely to conclude it is because our media landscape is toxic. Bernie would agree and say that is why we need a populist message to cut through.

NAFTA and Wall Street bailouts come to mind.
In regards to Bernie, his premise is that wealth inequality is the core problem, which means tax the rich until there are no billionaires left.
- Comment on I keep hearing that the Democratic Party should've paid more attention to the young white American demographic. Does this mean there was a point to the "All lives matter." movement? 1 week ago:
You might be on to something in the sense that coming back with a more inclusive response is a better approach. I don’t think that makes them “right” though.

Lol
- Comment on BBC tours hospital Israel says sits above Hezbollah gold 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think the content of the threat matters for the IDF’s objective. If we’re to be cynical, the half-ass excuse is a geopolitical posturing to show how brazen they can be with their genocide and possibly a way to demoralize the Democrat’s base before an election.
- Comment on BBC tours hospital Israel says sits above Hezbollah gold 4 weeks ago:
It’s not odd if you want to cause a mass migration of people to brake the front lines.
- Comment on Is American politics really as seemingly satirical of itself as it is portrayed? 4 weeks ago:
You summed it up correctly. The thing is the presidential race used to be a horse show, but that format was somehow easily hijacked by a rodeo clown.

I clearly was talking about Judaism and you are not. “We” are talking about two different things 🤷

Why do you think the Book of Revelations speaks to the Jewish faith? I am not of the opinion that Jews read the new testament.
- Comment on How modern is it to have "sympathetic" portrayals of Hell? 1 month ago:
The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either – but right through every human heart – and through all human hearts. This line shifts. Inside us, it oscillates with the years. And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained

Satan checked with God first to see if it was okay.

Not going to heaven doesn’t mean you automatically go to hell. Do you think the Jews thought all the gentiles were going to hell?
- Comment on How modern is it to have "sympathetic" portrayals of Hell? 1 month ago:
That is because Satan is not the Devil: youtu.be/z8j3HvmgpYc

How we view that past is how we treat the present. The fact Nat Turner’s family has not gotten closure is reflected in our more modern acts of racism.

Holy fuck they made purses out of the guy and they’re still figuring out which skull is his. What. The. Fuck.

Who do you think the Inuit stole their land from? The seals?
- Comment on Why limit immigration? 2 months ago:
Gee, if only we could find the labor to build some extra housing. Must be that the immigrants taking our jobs just don’t want to work these days.

I don’t think having a diversity in viewpoints on whether kids have rights is something to celebrate.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
It’s all about individual freedom until you start asking libertarians about the rights of kids and contractual indentured servitude.
- Comment on Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election? 2 months ago:
The media is working as intended, to expect it to “unfuck itself” based on market signals is unserious.

Hey buddy, don’t be so hard on yourself. I’m sure you’ll find a better way to contribute.

Imagine how much more money you’d make grinding your life away instead of hanging out here with us losers. Hell, you should be charging for your advice here, no need to give it away for free!
- Comment on Why doesn't the American market provide efficient and effective health insurance like it does for car insurance? 3 months ago:
My angle is to paid the most. If we let the person we are negotiating with to define all the terms and conditions, then there is not much room to ask for more.

They call it benefits because it’s marketing that works.
