  • Some women were given as property to some men, but before those men could claim them as property some other men murdered the women because they wouldn't have sex.

    And then the Catholic Church was like yes, we must hold this woman up as an example because women are more valuable to us as rotting meat than as non-virgins, this is sane and normal.

    Uhhh... Is that about the gist?

    Because I don't think this story is gonna make the list. 😂

  • ... Right, but the armed mobs are an example of how unimpeded greed has unintended and unpredictable consequences.

    Chaos is not a better business environment. It's just not.

    Businesses need infrastructure and stability and regulation to thrive.

    Republicans are just fuckin stupid and greedy. It's not a system that actually works. For anyone in the long term.

  • Lol Texas is currently dealing with armed mobs threatening the repair workers trying to turn power on for their shitty grid that breaks twice a year.

    Better business environment lmao.

    Short sighted greed isn't better for anyone, including the greedy.

  • Why do people act like Trump supporters are even tangentially connected to reality? They're not.

    If they want to do some awful thing, and the reason doesn't exist, they'll make up a reason. They'll shoot up a pizza restaurant over a basement that doesn't exist. They'll storm the capital to deny the reality of an election. They do not give a fuck about reality.

    They are already doing every single awful thing they want to do. Refusing to resist them because they might continue to be the exact same people they already are is so fucking stupid and infuriating.

  • Taking a deep breath. Removing some of the choicer words from this comment before posting.

    Some babies are born without functioning hearts or lungs. Some babies are born just to die painfully.

    "Born with everything we need"? Really?

    Maybe you were. I'm glad for you. But recognize that for the fortune and privilege that it is and appreciate it, because no, there isn't a grand plan. Yes, some people are born fucked. No, there isn't a reason.

    Make things better where we can.

  • To be fair, while I haven't listened to a ton of Rogan, that's easily the most openly vile thing I've heard from him. And it's not from his show, he's a guest on some call in show. It's also an older clip.

    Usually his schtick is a lot more subtle, "I'm just asking questions, I'm just open to hearing all sides, I just happen to platform Nazis and never push back on their opinions because I'm so open, also I think trans people are evil"

    You know. You know the fuckin type.

  • Four years of progressive policy.

    Do you get all your news from Fox or something?

    I swear to Christ, in 20 years we're gonna be talking about Biden in the exact same way we talk about Jimmy Carter.

    We are incapable of recognizing a good thing until it's gone.

  • Lmao they absolutely do not.

    Drain the swamp

    Trump fills the swamp, swims in the swamp, fucks every alligator in the swamp.

    Build a wall and make Mexico pay for it

    Fucks up the wall, charges taxpayers.

    Taxation is theft

    Trump increases taxes on the middle class, lowers his own taxes.

    They're just too fuckin brainwashed to notice who's actually fucking them. Talk to most Republicans for ten minutes and they want the things that progressive policy actually supports.

    They've just been told that Mexicans and Muslims and black folks are what is standing between them and what they want. Definitely not the billionaires, they just want prosperity for everyone.
