• It Ain’t Black People That Need To “Get Over Slavery”, It’s The White People Who Keep Trying To Bring It Back!

  Slavery is a terrible thing on every conceivable level. Its persistence is a permanent stain on humanity (and it’s lack of same). But, let’s be clear, it does persist. The desire of one group of people to enslave another group of people in this country did not end with the Civil War and the Emancipation…

• “Both Sides Do It” Is Racist Claptrap, Not Journalism

  There are two sides to every political situation: power and resistance. One either HAS the power or one is resisting the guy who does. By definition, by purpose, both sides are not doing “it”. They’re not doing the same thing. They’re doing the opposite for very specific purposes. “Ah, yes!” says the “Both Sides Do…

• Oh, The Irony — It Will Be Corrupt Conservatives Who Turn America Into A “Socialist Paradise”

  The only thing that scares a conservative more than “socialism” (their idea of it anyway) is diversity. Oh, they’ll tolerate diversity in the business they own. At the end of the day, they’ll happily pay minimum wage to whomever. But will they tolerate diversity in their country club — or worse, their neighborhood? Surely, you…

• There’s An 800 Pound Gorilla In The Room — A Crazy Form Of Christianity Is Now Running The Country

  Want to know what’s scarier than a zombie coming to eat your brain? An evangelical opening his mouth to speak. Let’s get this straight: what happened to us in 2016 was nothing less than a coup d’etat — a messy love triangle of first rate Russian spy craft with American Right Wing Money and America’s…

• Don’t Blame Conservatives For Being Troglodytes – Fear Of The New Is Hard-Wired Into Them

  It’s not a mystery what any self-proclaimed “conservative” wants.  As their name says, they want to “conserve”.  The question – what do they want to conserve? You can take “the future” right off the table.  You can’t conserve what doesn’t exist.  Not only do Conservatives not want to “conserve” the future, they’d like to avoid…

• Dear Conservatives — Your Problem Is: No One (Except YOU) Wants To Conserve What YOU Want To Conserve

  Want to know what a conservative wants? Look no further than their name: “CONSERVATIVE”. Conservatives want to “conserve“. Now — ask the next logical question — “WHAT do conservatives want to CONSERVE?” Do conservatives want to conserve the future? Of course not — you can’t conserve what doesn’t exist. Do conservatives want to conserve the…
