"The long day wanes: the slow moon climbs: the deep Moans round with many voices. Come, my friends, 'T is not too late to seek a newer world." We need not always mourn what is dying. Fairly erudite. More than fairly iconoclastic. I adore Jade.

To all who watch America from afar,

Please learn from this.

Please root out your evil and do not coddle or celebrate it.
Please rein in your rich and please lift your poor.
Please remember that hate is a drug, and to guard against both its suppliers and addicts.

Please be free while we are not.

"Beating women is not serious," is definitely on brand for the Republican ethos.

“the constitution forbids race conscious remedies” would be news to the people who wrote the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments

Griem goes there, arguing in response to Justice Jackson that there can be no race-conscious remedy absent a finding of intentional discrimination.

I think one of the primary goals of evil is to be evil openly.

The cabal of pedophile-protecting quislings sure seems fucking scared.

They ALL think and talk like this when they think it's safe to.

The thing that most terrifies the self-appointed ruling class is the possiblity that the unwashed masses might actually wake up and show them where the actual power in this country fucking resides.

It’s not weird, strange or unusual that the majority in the US treats Trump with reverence. The US is an abusive authoritarian country that hates women and minorities. He is the paragon of the true values of the US, not the false values of freedom and equality that are marketed here and abroad.

CNN Hires a dude nobody cares about to play a part on their shows every night and defend trump no matter what evil craven thing he does. They throw money and book deals at him. Now other "news" covers irrelevant stories about the felon's vanity and that's a story? Human centipede level bullshit.

We call the billionaire class parasitic for good reason.

These elitist assholes truly believe that all wealth is rightfully theirs, and that the unwashed masses who actually work, and make shit, and produce value for companies, are lucky to be allowed to be exploited by their socioeconomic betters.

When we call the billionaire class parasitic, we're not being hyperbolic.

These elitist fucks truly believe that all wealth rightfully belongs to them, and that the unwashed masses who actually do work and make shit are lucky that their socioeconomic betters condescend from on high to employ them.
