Eh. It’s part of the answer tho.

The amount of the population I fear in a fist fight is well less than 1%. These pussies bring guns tho.

Pretty sure the answer here is “don’t use Facebook.”

Fuck outta here, liberals shit on the left as much as conservatives do.

Anyone got the gofundme link?

Less shitty != not shitty

Counterpoint: John Brown did nothing wrong.

A better look would have been Al Greene beating someone with that cane.

Unless the democratic party’s platform becomes deny the oligarchy access to the levers of power, defend the working and middle class against the billionaires, and depose those who would enact political violence via law or pen, I’m not interested.

Millennials are five years away from Get Off My Lawn years old tho.

I’m an elder millennial, a lot fi my friends are sharing very boomer-esque “back when I was a kid, things were better because of XYZ.” Millennials are not the panacea you want them to be. A lot of them are just as dumb as boomers and these problems are systemic, not generational.

One of the biggest things about being a leftist is being right about stuff before it’s considered polite.

If the democrats hadn’t been pussies for two decades before Trump and effectively welded power, we wouldn’t have had Trump.

Look, I’m voting for Harris, and even as a leftist I’m half excited by it. But let’s not pretend a mainstream democratic party politician is anything other than a capitalist. She might have good policy ideas, ones that will genuinely help people, but she’s still a capitalist.

It’s just a very ungenerous interpretation of a lot of factually correct things. Brandon Sanderson is, indeed, Mormon and while I’ve never heard him say as much explicitly, the way he talks a out his faith makes me believe that yes, he does tithe to the church.

As for the audio book stuff, when Sanderson was doing his massive kickstarter for his four secret projects, he said that the audio books would not initially be available on Audible/Amazon. He said this was because he believed Amazon had too much market power and that he was successful enough that he didn’t need them and would thus withhold releasing his books on that platform. I don’t recall him ever saying that they would never be released there. Partway through fulfillment of the kickstarter, he announced that Amazon had changed its compensation structure (for all authors, not just him) in the direction he wanted and tbuse he felt it was okay to release his books on Amazon’s platform.

If you like heroic fantasy with unique magic systems, I recommend giving him a shot. I like to compare him to Marvel movies: not groundbreaking or innovative or the pinnacle of the art form, but competently made that hits all the emotional beats you want out of the story in a familiar and comforting way.

This might be the largest gap between technically correct and ungenerous reading of events that I’ve ever seen.

If I had one political wish, it would be that conservatives are forced to live in the world they want to create.

Tech bros reinvent broadcast TV.

I just… I can’t bring myself to give a shit about Taylor Swift’s airplanes when BP and Shell still exist and capitalism is still the dominant economic system.

Pretty sure “but the democratic party still fuckin sucks” covers all that.

Then I’m saying “at least he’s not openly fascist but the democratic party still fuckin sucks.”
