Probably tired of working  for the retard.

So it's okay when the left uses "the 'r' word." Got it.

It's okay when anyone uses it.

Well obviously you don't call retarded people retards, but what else do you call someone when they're acting retarded?

What other slurs is that said for? In what context is a word used as an insult when it isn't considered a thing to be judged and mocked for.

"Retard" is as much of a slur as idiot, moron, imbecile, and feeble-minded are, which were also technical terms to refer to mentally disabled people.

I’ll keep my one October holiday. We already get Veterans Day and thanksgiving in November. And Ocasio Cortes is a disgrace to the Hispanic empire Columbus ushered in. She owes her existence to that man

I owe my existence to slavery, but does that make it a good thing?

Would you rather not exist?

Many of millennials I know love Rachel Maddow. The popularity of people like her are driven by the millennial demographic. It's racist to even exclude people of color that happen to push the viewership of many shows, specifically Reid's who was under-attacked by a bunch of privilege white males on the internet.

But most importantly, IQ is by no means scientific and actually is kinda racist if you ask most contemporary psychologists.

Lol, it's not scientific.  Intelligence is not a linear concept, much as the pseudointellectual right (and racists) would like you to believe.

You may have a little point, but there is no way theoretically or literally that an IQ test could be racist.

Sure, IQ tests aren't inherently racist.  Neither is the SAT, which was invented by a known eugenicist and instrumental in promoting federal anti-immigration legislation in the 1920's.

"This thing, which is not racist, is tangentially similar to this unrelated thing, which is racist. Therefore, both are racist."

Not sure if strawman or deliberately missing the point.

In either case, Ernest put it best.  In the context of culture, IQ tests can be racist, or at the very least, used to justify racist ideas based on a heavily flawed understanding of intelligence and cultural context.  History happens to back that assertion up, especially as SATs are often used as proxies for IQ.

As much as I hate all the outlets you've just listed, I feel I have to (*shudder*) defend the Young Turks here. TYT is not even remotely in the same league as Chapo Trap House. Yes, they're a bunch of progressive idiots who are certainly to the left of the average Democrat, but they're not communists. CTH has more in common with The Daily Stormer than it does with TYT.

This whole thread is a f#cking dumpster fire.

I don’t want people getting marijuana, period.  It won’t kill you, but it is addictive and has been associated with numerous health problems, especially in folks who start using when they’re 25 or younger.  However, I do think that writing $250 - $500 per-incident citations is a better way to handle users than just tossing them in jail.  Ultimately, the legalization of recreational marijuana use is only really being talked about b/c a bunch of white dudebros decided they wanted a legal way to get high on demand which caused a bunch of [rich, white, male) venture capitalists to start seeing dollar signs.

A privileged group of scumbags who have done everything to crumble the rights of women of color to gain statue among the left. Every dirt-bag leftist doesn't care to improve the conditions of people of color communities, nor the disadvantages that women have in America. Yet these ugly Brooklyn dip shots are every bit as reactionary as the liberals they love to disparage on Twitter. I bet on money the brocialists at the DSA would love to hang a black dissenter if they had the political power to go that far in their hatred.

This BS is why there shouldn't be a primary and the party insiders should just coronate a nominee. Biden will still win but will suffer damage because the rest of the candidates constantly beat up on him.

Anyone willingly taking the name of a famous anti-Semite and pioneer of the swarmy practices of broadcast evangelists is not someone most people will want to listen.

You say anti-Semite as if it means anything; criticizing the actions and nepotism among any ethnic or religious group isn't hateful and that is the extent of what Fr. Coughlin did. Nor was he a televangelist, he used radio and magazine to communicate politics from the stance of Catholic social teaching.

Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden (R-DE) endorses President Donald J. Trump (R-FL):

Good to see Joe endorsing his fellow Republican

The context here being that Joe told people protesting him for Obama-era deportations and asking him to not take from corporations, he responded condescendingly and told them to "Vote for Trump"

Even if he should have responded differently, doesn't change the fact it's ridiculous to claim he's a Republican, as people on the left have done multiple times.

You literally supported Trump at the beginning of his campaign because of the deficit.  You are the only person who can say they were that stupid to support Donald J. Trump because of... the deficit.

I never supported Trump unironically, but you Berniebros deserve Trump if you can't support another Democratic nominee than Saint Bernard.

Bernie's not even my first choice but ok boomer.

As far as "I never supported Trump unironically”, well let's take a trip down memory lane...

Most liked:

- Donald Trump (yes, I have disagreements with him over climate change, gun control, immigration in most parts and the minimum wage; so I agree with him on 60-65% of the issues; and he's a damn good speaker. Other pros: Self funding and mostly good foreign policy views)

The Donald. Without any doubt. Kasich and Christie are also acceptable.

Trump by far.

The Donald, because he's the most able to work with congress and both parties.

TRUUUUUUUUUUUUMP. Democrats for TRUMP!
But I'm not eligiable to vote in the US. Too bad. But I'd vote for The Donald.

TRUUUUUUUUUUUUMP. Democrats for TRUMP!

Very mixed feelings. Her political views are relatively close to mine in domestic affairs, maybe even a little more than TRUMP's (although I support ~70% of The Donald's views). But I doubt she's trustworthy. I like TRUMP and Kasich better.

Actually optimistic, but I think there will be gridlock. DC needs to be shaken up, and the man to do this is TRUMP.

If I were an American citizen, yes. I would, as of today, vote for TRUMP. But would also vote straight Democratic in congressional elections.

A president and former world-class businessman who ended stupid trade deals, eliminated the deficit, presided over an economic boom who had a great sense of humor and was a great communicator.

As usual, a rude and exceptionally trashy choice to post in this thread out of a discussion in which you are participating. You have a way of making people feel sorry for making the mistake of engaging with you in the first place.

Dude, you've been on Atlas too long to be this thin-skinned.  In any case, I can't stand Bloomberg either and hate what him being nominated would represent, but the idea that he'd be worse for the country than four more years of Trump is absurd at best.

This might not be the proper thread to discuss this, but to those of us who view Trump as not the cause of our problems but a symptom of those problems that have existed long before his presidency, four or eight years of Bloomberg would not be much better than four more years of Trump because we see no evidence that he would do what is necessary to change those things which led to the election of Trump in the first place.

If it's four more years of Trump as opposed to four or eight years of Bloomberg followed by four or eight years of Cotton or Hawley, I would be hard pressed not to pick the former because if you think Trumpism is bad, imagine Trumpism but with a president who's not constantly undermined by scandal and personality and overall ineptitude.

The GOP thanks you for 6 SCOTUS seats
(accelerationism is an idiotic idea to focus on and you should just try to win every election you can)

It's not accelerationism, it's looking at elections and considering the impact they will have long-term.

Yes, the courts are one reason to prefer Bloomberg over Trump, but the courts themselves won't be enough to impede the creeping, crypto-fascistic tendencies of the populist right which has become mainstream for the GOP.

What about all the lives that will be destroyed in the meantime if Trump is re-elected? 

I could ask the same question about the next Trump-ite GOPer who wins the presidency, who will likely be a) more competent than Trump and b) have more legislative experience under his belt as well as a better working relationship with Republicans in Congress.

Think of it this way: if a "normal" Republican were in office right now, there would be no Obamacare today, because we wouldn't have had a pissed off, dying, former POW who was publicly insulted by that president, casting the deciding vote against repealing it.

I would think progressives would prefer a Hawley Presidency to a Trump one when it comes to economic policy. Hawley seems to actually want to take on monopolies and build an industrial policy to implement the sort of economic populist agenda that Trump got elected on. I wouldn't expect Hawley to delegate so much policymaking to people with a more generic Republican tax/spending-cut agenda the way Trump has.

Rhetoric aside, Hawley is basically your standard Republican on economic issues.  And personally, I don't want a president whose priority is to curb "social media addiction" and open the door to government censorship or control of private networking platforms.  (Perhaps it's the libertarian in me, but I sure as hell don't trust the government to decide what people should or shouldn't do online... within reason, obviously.)

And it is appalling to see that SOME democrats are actually wishing for the economy to crash just to stymie Trump's reelection. Disgusting.

I don’t care what it takes, Trump has got to go. I want another 2008 recession. My job is recession-proof, it’s not going to affect me. I also want another subprime mortgage crisis to bring down home prices because I want to buy a place as soon as the lease is up. I’m a proud functionalist.
