Don’t worry, Progressives, Leftists, et al.

The Republicans will never actually take my advice on healthcare.

Therefore your eventual single-payer system is practically assured.  In like 4-8 years.

No one hates anime as a hobby or to be superior. Its hated because a large amount is full of pedophilia, incest, fetishization, harmful stereotypes, and anti boundary messages many shows promote. just because you don't recognize dangerous issues in it doesnt mean it doesn't exist. if so many people hate a media due to the physical proof of its moral problems, the people critiquing arent the problem, and defending a media as if its holy and above real life prevents important judgement.

this anon is proof that’s not the case

Hey remember when that 17 year old got called a pedophile and run off this site for liking dragon maid and Nico Yazawa

remember when this has happened multiple times

remember how the only reason you’re sending this to me is because I pointed out that assuming “the majority” of anime fans, especially male, disliked Boku no Pico because it’s gay not because it’s child porn is like…the exact kind of weirdo-logic leaps you guys make to rationalize sending suicide bait to other kids on this site

Someone really called me the n word and told me to get lynched over this

[mitigatedchaos]

I feel like the kinds of people that do that just flat out enjoy hating on people and sending them insults/threats/suicide baits/etc, and are just looking for a socially sanctioned excuse.

It’s honestly part of why I get suspicious any time anyone gets too excited about punishing people.

So, how do we go about hijacking launch systems to flood LEO with more submarines than there are ocean-wrecked planes?

First, we’re going to need a lot of money…

a bit less restraint than the Bush II White House is really not something you want to wake up to in January 2017 is it

[flakmaniak]

If any president is going to be worse than W, it’ll be Donald. And yet, he hasn’t managed it yet, much though Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers would like to protest that he has, largely due to his aura of unclassiness. But I’m gonna use the Iraq war benchmark: If he can start a disaster that big, or accumulate that level of damage in total, then I’ll put him into consideration. And he may yet do so; I wouldn’t put it past him. But we’ll see. If he manages it, it will take some real effort on his part.

AL Gore also pushed for the Iraq war in the general election

[mitigatedchaos]

He wouldn’t have been willing to pay the ideological price to transform Iraq into a Real Democracy, either.

This half-measures imperialism is really annoying and really deadly.  I probably need to hire someone to go around and smack whoever still thinks it was a good idea.

It’s worth pointing out that we’re still occupying Germany and Japan, however technically.  

The functional American system is basically “We don’t leave.  Ever”.  

The dysfunctional one is “We leave a decade after we ought to have”.  

[mitigatedchaos]

If Iraq turned out as well as Germany or Japan, would it really matter if we still had airbases there from which we could project power?

I mean, certainly in the sense of regional politics it would, but as something to complain about, I don’t think so, it’s easily a price worth paying.

ok can anyone explain how the fresh heck is Buzzfeed on fast track TOWARDS becoming a trustworthy and insightful source? it’s always the other way round

[zoobus]

I’m assuming this is in reference to their long posts which, as far as I can tell, have been really in depth and interesting

I’m sure there’s a reason for it, but the dichotomy of Serena Williams OBLITERATES this Sexist RacistFuckface (followed by a mild rebuke) vs an investigative article exposing the struggles in punishing sexual assault at HBCUs is really weird

[ranma-official]

I’ve just read a long post about how they uncovered a massive amount of fraud (45 pages of errors (not 45 pages with errors in them)), in a respected nutritional scientist’s body of work and buzzfeed is literally the last place I’d expected to read that on

[mitigatedchaos]

You aren’t the only one that has noticed this.

Well, not that I actually read Buzzfeed on purpose, but I’ve stumbled on a long-form article or two from there and been pleasantly surprised.  

I suspect that the answer to the puzzle is that there is demand for long-form, investigative journalism.  There just isn’t enough demand for it.  So Buzzfeed and the others are converging on the “optimal” (for money-making) ratio of junk listicles to actual journalism.
