That’s by design. Billionaires monetize rage bait, and it has the added bonus of keeping us fighting with each other while they rob us blind. But one day soon, all the anger from the culture wars they’ve cultivated to distract us from the class war will be turned on them.

One of the biggest revelations of the social media age imo is how much people are addicted to getting mad, so much so that they'll actively create reasons when there are none.

I think from an evolutional standpoint there is a rather large capacity to get angry, almost cellular, since angry and hungry go together and allow one to perform some of the savage acts necessary to survive in the formerly even more savage World. We're wired to get mad, it seems.

I don't know that she's correct - now it might be true that celebrities don't make the difference they wished they would make, but I think anytime anyone states a view others can feel validated by the fact that they aren't alone in that belief. Celebrities have a large platform for that.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

If you go by their "apparent" plan, it seems to be: "Die. And make it quick.".

To the Blue Jay Fans I can only say what was said to Royals fans in 2014: There's no shame in getting to the last inning of the last game of the World Series, whether you win or you lose that's a great achievement. Now Toronto can regroup and reload and try to do what the Royals did in 2015.

Reminding everyone again:

When the Romans could no longer support their version of SNAP, called bthe "cura annonae" or "grain dole", the Roman Empire COLLAPSED.

Al Yankovic's "Word Crimes" notes that we should be able to tell if we are "doing good" or "doing well".

But what if you're doing good well?

Great catch, those without short-term memory loss sure do!

“In any other admin (including Trump's first), someone in the Pentagon would have said: ‘Mr. President, you cannot order the military to murder a bunch of people on a boat.’ Designating them ‘narco-terrorists’ isn’t a thing that lets you do that.”
