We're in a world where a bucket of chicken can be considered blatantly racist. Don't make stupid political correctness rules unless you want to play by them.


Except there's a difference between people genuinely being offended about something (or even defending people who they genuinely think are offended, even if they are wrong) and pretending to be offended about something because "those are the rules I guess".

This is the same dumb **** you played with the Kavanaugh hearing where you pretended like it was fair play for Republicans to hypothetically make up rape allegations to derail a confirmation hearing in the future because Democrats had the gall to believe someone's rape allegations.

1. The audio quality is bad, but the song itself has the potential to be catchy. Though I think it should maybe be a little bit tighter. It doesn't feel like it needs to be a four minute song, but that there's too much verse verse chorus when it could just be verse chorus. I didn't really like the outro though.

2. I didn't listen to the lyrics closely enough to make comments on that.

3. The music video itself is pretty bad. The girl playing guitar keeps looking at the camera and it doesn't seem like the playing is actually synced up. You don't have to use live audio in a music video, but if you have clips of instruments they should at least be playing the right part.

4. Ultimately, the content of the music video is fairly boring and it might have well have just been audio since it was a lot of the same two shots and the actual production problems listed above.

I never understood why they did music even. and they tend to get music acts that I don't think the average NFL fan even likes.

Nobody can decide if we should pay attention to her or not. One day everyone is saying she's a junior politician in the House so why is anyone paying any attention to her, and the next day we need to change the law so she can run for President in 2020.


Most people in the 2020 topic who even somewhat supported her said that we should change the law regardless of whether or not she wants to run.

I don't think you could find many if any posts that were behind the idea because they wanted her to run in 2020.

We frequently have people saying they support the people that wish for an ethnic cleansing in America, and they get slaps on the wrist too.

For a guy that has users that are burning down churches or have been caught planning shooting sprees in shopping malls in Canada, SBAllen is pretty lenient in cases of calls for violence.


Not to downplay either of those things on a moral level, but neither of those first two carry much risk of legal complicity.

The fallacy fallacy. You can look it up on Wikipedia, if you want to know more.


Getting the facts wrong isn't a logical fallacy though. That's a faulty premise.

DarkRoast posted...

Trump is a f***ing moron and everyone with a braincell knows this. Nobody here is saying AoC is anywhere on his level. That doesn't excuse her also being a moron.

If politics is now "my moron isn't as dumb as your moron" then we're truly f***ed.


But it's weird to call her "our moron". Trump is the head of the Republican party. AoC is one Democratic congress member. She'd have to be 435 times worse than Trump to have a similar impact.

Also, I really think "moron" is pretty strong language. Which of these lies/errors do you think reflects poorly on her intelligence? If you think she's dumber than the average house member, I have bad news for you.

She talks out of her ass without researching. She is no way comparable to Trump as far as her intentions go and even conduct (though she does s***post on Twitter like a troll but nowhere like Trump). But as far as saying incorrect things and her base brushing it aside because lol she gets the right SO MAD!!!, that is comparable to Trump and his base.


In that same time frame, Politifact found 47 statements of Trump that were false. Washington Pot in that same time have him making 2600 false or misleading claims. Trump also repeats the same lies even when it has been pointed out to him that he's lying. It's not a matter of him just saying inaccurate things. I don't really care when Trump gets something technically wrong or exaggerates.

He's also the president. AoC is one of 435 house members. The reason that the right getting upset about her is funny is because they're only elevating her own status by doing so. I don't think if she was just doing stuff to "troll the conservatives" that she would get the same response that conservative provocateurs do.

More like you agree with her and disagree with Trump.


No, I just don't think their twitter feeds are similar at all. It's position agnostic.

If you look at AoC's feed over the last few days, here's what you have: Some attacks against hypocrisy by Republicans, tweets about the "green new deal", retweets of articles supporting positions she has taken, some personal tweets about things like Ru Paul, and other policy tweets.

There's a mix of media, some original content, some retweeted. The tone of her tweets is fairly subdued.

Donald Trump's feed over the last day: Ranting and raving about conspiracies involving the special investigation, him quoting Fox News hosts he agrees with, complaints about the press/media, and tweets about how Obama is a worse president than him and it's great that courts are ruling against Obamacare.

All of the tweets are from Donald Trump directly. The tone of the tweets is conveyed through completely capitalizing words/phrases for emphasis and lots of long strings of tweets separated by ellipses, which give them a rant like feel.

I don't really see the similarities. If you wanted to make a "left" Donald Trump feed, it wouldn't look like AoC's.

Or am I thinking of someone else (the guy who flew on commercial planes first class and took a security detail with him everywhere and lived at some lobbyist's house for 50 bucks a night and was spending thousands of dollars on new furniture for the office's dining room and took all his friends to the white house cafeteria every day).

I'm pretty sure that was Pruitt


Zinke also had a bunch of similar travel/financial scandals, so it's easy to get them confused.
