All this shit—minus Conan O’Brien—sucks. I can’t believe this is the stuff that people are spending their lives listening to. Even as entertainment, this is as stupid as you can possibly get.

The most consistent theme of conservatism is being completely unable/unwilling to understand how a thing is bad until it happens to you.
Milo Yiannopoulos: "I didn't really understand the physical reality of how institutionalized the brutality is in America. The manner in which they arrest you, they put you in manacles, everybody is arrested like an MS 13 gang member. It was physically degrading. It was frightening. I don't think I've ever been frightened like that before. I was weeping like an old woman for an hour. I wouldn't wish it on anyone."

How else are you going to wreck a superpower? A diseased and ignorant population is easier to dominate and manipulate
American science continues to shrink despite the story being told to the public. And it’s the long term consequences that will be most devastating.

This man, whom I used to greatly admire as a computer science student, is...a sociopath. Society keeps propping up sociopaths and it has endangered the world. Ayn Rand has WAY too many disciples.

This is just further proof that the modern right, at their heart, are uncool losers who want to be seen as cool just once in their lives

“Who was paying her to protest?” Is a question only asked by someone who can’t imagine doing anything out of moral conviction, rather than money & power.

I don’t think attempting a 3 point turn is an act of domestic terrorism that warrants an immediate execution.

Reminder that the civil rights movement was not just random people who had enough one day. They were carefully and militantly trained political activists who deployed strategic forces to end Jim Crow segregation. Never forget them.
