Bernie Sanders has always had it wrong: White Working Class Americans abandoned prosperity and the Democrats because the Democrats have principles and support civil rights.

“A diatribe wherein Roberts went out of his way to be as insulting as possible, dismissing research by post-graduate-level McGill University geographers as ‘cyclist ideology,’ earns the inaugural Cult MTL award for ‘most asinine and belittling comment’ written by a supposedly reputable journalist.”

Latest bit of Montreal 'bikelash' sidesteps the facts to please bike-lane haters

The findings of a study about bike lanes vs car infrastructure have been twisted by a Montreal publication in a cheap bit of bikelash.

We have got to update the way we talk about this. We have got to update the way we think about this and to do so in a way that in no way puts the brakes on girls and women, but which doesn't inadvertently, in our efforts to promote women and girls," -Richard Reeves

"The future is female" is probably something I would've gone along with, like as a good male feminist or whatever. But actually that's a terrible phrase. Like, the future can't be female or male. It has to be for everybody."- Richard Reeves

Mens issues don't get the play it deserves. Unfortunately a lot of men get sucked into the Andrew Tates of the world. Men Need to be heard. Progressive Mens Rights Activists like @richardreeves.bsky.social are changing the discussion about mens and boys issues. bigthink.com/series/the-b...

Barack Obama and the late-Senator John McCain exchange funny roasts. Back when presidential candidates had class, a sense of humor, and respect for the office. Not to mention actual qualifications for the job. Feels like a million years ago.
