The United States is considering, in addition to other options, stopping all trade with any country doing business with North Korea. |

Motherfuck ass fuckers. I can't even laugh at the jokes anymore. The photoshopped memes. They make it seem as if what's really happening is just some farce to be clucked at and dismissed. Goddammit. Fuck fuck fuck. |
^ I think the humor is entirely necessary. At least it is for me and those I hang around with...

Okay, another bad day for America.
But T-Dog still isn't using a private server. So I'm sleeping easy. |

I'm trying to wrap my head around the "antifa" thing (if anyone knows what, precisely, this word refers to, let me know, because it's being used as a catch-all for "protestor" ... not even "violent protestor," but just anyone in the streets yelling, and it's not actually an organized group with bylaws and membership requirements and a mission statement, so I think we're being spun like crazy on both sides of the issue), and the militarized police force pushes, and DACA, and I can no longer bring myself to laugh. Is he stupid and ridiculous and worthy of ridicule? Yes. But I just feel desperate, impotent anger when I see his fat stupid face (WHOSE FACE LOOKS LIKE THAT?! IT'S LIKE GOD WANTED US TO HATE HIM! WHO LOVED THIS GUY?!) ... I don't feel the desire to laugh. |
Quote:
See, I want to laugh, but it just makes me seethe with anger instead when I think about any of the absurd goddamn decisions that our moron masses have made to bring us here. God FUCKING FUCK! |
If you got more involved, your anger would be productive and not so unhealthy, so seethe-y.
Sounds obvious when I type it out. Still, you could bear to read it, it seems. Don't blame your job for lack of involvement. Want to get involved? Easy. Fund my travel to the next protest in DC. It's an idea which solves a few problems at once. |

I'm actually getting involved through my job, but that's all I'm going to say about that. I've donated to ACLU and Southern Poverty. I've signed petitions. I've engaged in hours and hours of discourse with Trump supporters trying to understand and reason with them, and hear what they have to say, and understand. I've spent hours trying to convince my "we're still punk cause our parents are millionaires" friends not to fuck with statues or punch people or bring clubs to protests. I'm pretty involved. Compared to the people I work with, I'm Malcolm Fucking X. Not saying I couldn't more, but again, I'm finding roads to that through work. So... shut up. :D |

A hard political move to force the Congress to enact democratic law and not rule by presidential decree, absolutely cynical but Congress needs to address the law, or not address it. If I could vote, I would vote for them to stay, but I also want the borders to be secure. Personally, I think anyone who carries a cell phone should be denied the vote. They've already shown they are feudal slaves to the corporate state. |

PEOPLE are treating it as a highly emotional issue. PEOPLE are protesting. PEOPLE are telling their stories. The press is reporting on what PEOPLE are doing. Goddamn bloody well hate it when someone slams the press because they don't like what's HAPPENING, AND AS A RESULT, BEING COVERED. Fuck's sake. |
Quote:
Yeah, that's part of his point though. It's a "legal cut and dried" issue, not something that, like, effects millions of people and disrupts families and punishes people for nothing.... it's totally "legal" and not at all "emotional" (🙄) so it's all OK as long as Congress decides to naturalize these people. Which I'm oh-so sure is what they will do, since they can get so much done. Anyway. Trump doesn't give a fist fuck about anyone. He sees his voter base slipping and he's trying to kill two birds with one stone: fulfill campaign promises to remove every single undocumented immigrant, while putting the burden of being the bad guy squarely on a Congress that is distancing itself from him more and more. |

lol, little jeff sessions don't you have some lynching to conduct? |

Ok, chief... you can't slam "the press" and then base it on how you feel about editorializing, which is not hard news reporting and has always been part of the media model. Editorializing is not newswriting, so instead of saying the press is slanted, say editorials are slanted (they're supposed to be... they are opinion pieces written, traditionaly, by editors. Think of them as columns if it helps). Being upset that editorializing exists is fine, but don't accuse "The Press" of slanting information. There seems to be a pretty widespread lack of understanding about this, especially lately. Opinion pieces are not the news. If your perspective is that the ores as a whole is slanting facts instead of reporting them, you should back that up with some examples from non-editorial pages of AP-affiliated publications. As it stands, you just sound like every other jackass who is blaming what's happening in the world on the people who tell you about it. |
Quote:
Oh for fuck's sake. You're either for or against the executive authority. You can't defend one example of "overreach" by calling it a response to another one. If you don't like executive orders that circumvent the legislative process, you should be against Trump's threats to take things into his own hands if congress doesn't act AND Obama's willingness to do the same, and every instance thereof. You're not an idiot. Think about it. |
sounds like a jackass
looks like a jackass smells like he drank deodorant fuck him |

Quote:
You're justifying the threatened action of Trump to repeal Daca by executive order based on the premise that Obama implemented it by executive order. You're justifying circumventing the legislative process by saying someone else did it. So your argument against against this kind of overreach, while justifying more overreach to fix it, is flawed to the point of not being much of an argument for anything. You can be against both or neither based on what you've said... unless you've turned the issue into an emotional one for some reason. |
