Active dislike for children is one of those animuses that should be critically examined a lot more than it is.

Not a funny or witty comment, but it's the most succinct explanation for the confusion people feel when Party X adopts awful position Y.

people who care enough about climate change to let it influence their vote would almost never even think of voting for a party like AfD in the first place.

PiT had this excellent remark:

Indeed, there are some very intelligent and well-spoken people who are virulently racist. Conflating intelligence with holding decent political opinions is a terrible trend that promotes misunderstanding of politics and ideology.

What the hell did anyone else do to deserve my help?

I don't see why I should share with people who wronged me in the past, or just ignored me. They made their bed, why shouldn't they lie in it?


Would there be people who wronged you in the past if they weren't selfish?

People were literally run down with a car in Charlottesville by a right-winger. Clinton is 100% right in her comments.

If a hardcore left winger ran over someone in my family with his or her car, I wouldn't be dumb enough to extrapolate it to all Democrats.
