Wait. You mean to tell me that giving kids terrible educations…makes them more susceptible to being stupid assholes?

Yes! Strap me to the millstone!

Yeah people this dumb either think it’s a good thing and revel in it or are incapable of forming the thought/reaching the level of self-awareness that allows them to think “maybe I’m stupid.”

But spicy autocorrect is going to steal my job next month! Benzinga told me and my boss so; when he does fire me it totally won’t be a self fulfilling prophecy!

(Don’t worry, if this ages poorly I WILL delete this comment.)

I mean… “Hoof Hearted” was a real horse name. (Read it out loud)

Yep! And their short-sighted greed is going to drive us right to the brink of annihilation. We’re staring down the barrel of environmental collapse and our leaders are generally either old enough they assume they’ll die before it gets “that bad,” and the others stupidly think money makes them immune to the destruction of the biosphere. Anyone under 50 right now is going to live through some incredibly dark times. We are all dogs in a car with the windows closed and the heater on in a Texas parking lot. Business as usual is going to get really ugly, really quickly, really soon.

Let’s also not forget about “artisinal” mining. The conditions it’s practitioners work in are horrendous. Environmental justice can and always should vindicate the rights and welfare of the workers.

I’m sorry to be the spelling guy but it’s “forbid” not “phorbid”

Without even getting to the technical issues….if you build a “fully operation” social platform, shouldn’t you host your blog on your shiny wonderful service that you’re promoting, instead of Medium?

That should raise an alarm without even knowing what the word encryption means.

Yeh this is just thinly veiled propaganda.

Nope. I’m here to tell you this is a lie and we need more oil. This post is sponsored by ExxonMobile, the producer of the loveliest sludge destroying your planet and future!

People seem to be missing that this not the result of trumps presidency. This is the result of a disgusting and systematic destruction of public resources and a rollback of the provision of public services. This was done at the same time that oversight and consequences were systematically removed from political operatives. (Thanks, Citizens United!) All of this has been accomplished by the rich in the name of further enrichment at the expense of every single person in the nation. And while they did this, they blasted us with increasingly limp propaganda.

I have a serious wake up call for people reading this article and taking it at face value: EVEN IF BIDEN WINS, DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA WILL STILL WHEEZING ITS LAST SAD BREATHS. And that won’t change until the deeper economic issues and the political operators fostering and worsening those issues are dealt with.

Yeah, obviously it’s worse if trump wins. But the fact Biden is being painted as a savior of Democracy is blatant propaganda by people supporting a party that has been complacent at best for creating the material conditions enabling trump to rise to any sort of political relevance. That should be a wake up call. Biden is a dogshit senile crank that authored one of the worst crime bills in our nation’s history.

Yeah: clearly, fuck trump. But dear god fuck Biden and the democrats too. They’re not the answer. We as a society need to fucking torch both parties and that, not voting for one of the two, is going to save democracy in America.

Im a little offended that Monsanto thinks my sperm are insects if I’m being honest

“I was comfy in there why the fuck did I have to come out?”

Everything’s a wiretap!

All media will be reality tv and marvel movies and you will love it or else

Well TIL; thank you for that!

I’ve seen footage!

I’ve noticed that; I don’t know why, but recently the stores by me only have it every third time I go.
