Seriously though I fucking LOVE that the heterosectional trolling has not only gained a life of its own, but that were starting to see a lot of journalists slip in oblique references to it in tangentially related content. It must be driving Vance INSANE, and I love that for him.

this wouldn’t have worked if he didn’t look exactly like the kind of guy who would do it (which is why their weirdo “horse cum” rumor attempt didn’t work on walz), and it wouldn’t stay relevant if it didn’t so visibly bother him so much.

I’ll check with the 'necks at work, but I don’t think anyone actually gives a shit. I’m not sure it’s doing any favors for the dems.

Between couches and jars of jizz, I’d support Biden pointing our nuclear arsenal at our own cities and going ham. Motherfuckers can’t even bother saying each other’s names. It’s over. Time to go, lads.

The only voters not repelled by his creepy views are… well… creeps.

Referring to women as females will do that all on its own.

The more I hear about him the more I think he’s gay and too afraid to embrace it.

Tbh, I think he probably would have married a white woman if it was just for appearances, but suppressing bisexuality also woeks

He idolizes Peter Thiel. Thiel bankrolled the Hulk Hogan lawsuit that put Gawker out of business. Gawker had outed him as gay and the suit was revenge.

Peter Thiel is an asshole! Fuck that guy! But he doesn’t deserve the credit for taking gawker down, his suit was a wash except the judge ordered them to take down the sex tape that they had leaked. And then they refused to do that. And you know what, I’m not going to weep over losing them. They were integral to incubating the culture of paparazzi, and I have no sympathy for people that leak private videos like that. Hell, Thiel was pretty justified to sue them. He’s a rich asshole and really I don’t care what happens to him, but Gawker delighted in outing people in ex: popular memes, and that could easily get someone killed. I’m just disappointed they didn’t get jail time for their shit.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
