Is this not just an illustration of the concept of the Overton Window?

Is this a revelation? It's stephen miller. Everything he does is with the intention of either consolidating power or to get lefties killed.

They hold water for high level pedophiles and are a major contributor to the US's current nosedive into fascism. This isn't anything out of the ordinary for fox.

I'll stop calling him a fascist in exchange for him doing some deep sea diving in a carbon fiber hulled submersible.

What if we just stopped enabling shitty private health insurance companies? Dumb.

33% of people approve

For real? We're so fucked.

Wow, 60% of Americans are blind or illiterate. Rough.

I've only seen right wingers saying he's a mastermind. The left just says that he's senile and demented or evil and lawless. He's doing the shit in the open with minimal statecraft or political finesse.

He's a tyrant fascist through and through, but he's not all that smart, he's just willing to brazenly ignore any rules that get in his way because consequences don't apply anymore. Republicans think this makes him a skilled politician, but he's just a bull in a china shop.

The only way to defeat us is if the Trump administration and the movement that undergirds it manages to divide us. We can’t let that happen. To win as a majority coalition, we must always invite everybody who believes in civil liberties and human rights.

Sooooo we're defeated? 1/3 of the population voted for this and is actively cheering it on, 1/3 don't give enough of a shit to take action for whatever reason, and the last 1/3 are the target of the first 1/3.

How the fuck are we supposed to band together and "invite everybody that believes in civil liberties and human rights" when half of the country is either championing or passively allowing the stripping away of those rights? This would require the right wing to fundamentally shift their views on immigrants and gay people, which they obviously have no interest in doing.

All that was needed to defeat Hitler was to make the Nazis see Jews as people.

That's pretty much what's being said here. Can we please be realistic and not pretend that both sides are equal and valid in their rationale and behavior? If someone starts punching every gay person around them, you don't tell the gay people to be more cooperative and understanding, you arrest the fucker and punish them.

The album Year Zero by Nine Inch Nails has been getting a lot of play for me, recently. It's amazing how long the alarm bells have been going off for people paying attention.

You can still be a 90's kid, we won't kick you out

"push my fingers into my eyes" is a reference to Duality by Slipknot, as well. Sorry to break it to you, but it was 2/4

The type of people that found Fred durst hot in the 90s probably still think Fred first is hot. Just two brain cells in a cage match for the last 30 years.

Classic

Be nice to Canada, they have the worst neighbors

Could be a coincidence. Only way we're going to know is if we occupy Winnipeg.

Only thing that could get those big boys hustling that hard. Gotta protect daddy.

Came here to say this. The last decade has truly flipped my perception of the rest of america on its head. Well, my perception of conservatives, at least. I always knew that people are people and there's a spectrum of good to bad. I've come to realize that Republicans literally do not care about trying to help anyone else unless they see some sort of personal return of either money or power. I've seen so many people that I thought were "a good, slightly dumb person misguided by politics" fully throw themselves behind Trump. Everything that they say they believe in is apparently a lie, since they so readily line up to worship a person so antithetical to what they pretend to believe. I can not and do not trust anyone that identifies with Republicans or even conservatism at this point.

Run it like Boeing before the merger
