Just saying...

Gay and/or trans is the new Native American. Magical labels impossible to disprove. If you manage to get these people to break off of their script the curtain comes down really quickly. Hawley needs to learn to attack the way she processes language instead of acting as though she's saying anything meaningful in her accusations against him. Berkeley, Harvard, Yale. Formerly crown jewels of the American legal education system. Now stocked with "professors" such as her. This is where your future federal judges are being educated.

There is no conversation to be had with those who exist in these spaces only to deceive, inveigle, and obfuscate the truth as a signal that they do not commit wrongthink.

Yes, judging by your incredibly serious and intensely consequential debate over whether our gay friends should call their unions “marriage” we really won’t get along. Feel free to ignore and you can post shitlib, midwit tropes in peace.

Funny what a homogenous society with long periods of net zero immigration can accomplish, huh?

I've loved Novak since I started playing competitive tennis way back in the day. Honestly there aren't any pro tennis players I hate lol.

What really gives the game away is that the translated CCP media had the same takes on Abe as NPR.

Waiting on our resident communists to tell us why it’s bad, actually, for the workers of the world to unite.

I think we’re losing the plot a bit here. Regardless of what you think of the current admin, its state department has deemed her wrongfully detained. Which means that in their estimation she has either not done the crime or for all intents and purposes has already done the time. I don’t know much about what amounts to TSA violations in Russia but I have to assume most people would have simply been fined and deported by now.

Yeah, and they pay like 20% of what the Russian league does.

Unfortunately for Ms. Griner, it appears that the Russians think more highly of women's pro basketball than the Americans. You'd think the NBA players and coaches so willing to inject themselves and their public persona into political issues would be making more of a stink about this. "We're all in this together," and all that. There's been some noise but mostly quiet. I know that at the end of the day this does not reduce to a political issue, but it sure feels like it does. An American citizen deserves better than this. Set aside even the government for a second, she deserves better from her colleagues and the media responsible for covering her sport.

What's interesting is that leftists should fall right in line with the idea that something is deeply and tragically wrong with American society at the moment. That they don't in these instances raises some interesting questions that one is forbidden from asking.

If a group of people are to be called a nation they need to share some things that are bigger - ancestry, values, cultural heritage, history, etc. The various Native tribes can rightfully be called "nations" even if they're scattered now.

What do you think you have in common with the average 2020 Trump voter, Tibs? Genuinely curious. Presumably this guy would agree with the recent Supreme Court decisions, would think that the J6 hearings are grandstanding at best, and live in middle America.

A nation requires more than just shared (open) borders.

Well, no, not in the sense that you’re asking. But that question is a good illustration of how badly a country can lose the plot when it’s no longer truly a nation, but a glorified economic zone held together at the lower levels with scotch tape and Elmer’s glue.

Nearly half of all student loan debt is attributed to grad school loans. Yet only 16% of student loan borrowers borrowed for grad school. We'd be bailing out people who doubled down on bad choices at an incredibly lopsided rate.

You can tell leftists haven't had to actually formulate an argument as to why abortion access should be unlimited in the past fifty years. All the tired old tropes and long debunked myths just trotted out there again, flailing like the blow-up dude outside a used car dealership, waiting for someone to trip over the cord that keeps it up.

Wow so it turns out the slippery slope isn't a fallacy after all, huh?

It always amazes me that leftists will simply re-invent child support as a solution. Bonus points for suggesting that mandatory DNA paternity testing is somehow a progressive own against men. But if that's the response, I find those terms acceptable.

Loving peace isn’t a virtue when you aren’t capable of war.
