Why is anyone pretending that the Epstein thing is going to affect Trump in any way? Why should this horrible thing matter more than the other horrible things he's gotten away with?

leftism is a toxic purity challenge. stop infighting and actually get stuff done oh my god.

US POL

Oh look. Naked antisemitism on TikTok.

Fuck.

Them: "This flooding is caused by humans!"
Me: "Yeah?"

Me: *sigh*

[Me bitching about US politics.]

The true source of anger on the online left comes not from fear, injustice or anything like that. It comes from the fact that as a whole their actions are useless, and they are politically impotent. Every progressive accomplishment in the last fifty years has […]

Every goddamned political argument on the left fails because one side is arguing for "How things should be in a perfect world and anything less is evil" and the other is arguing based on "How things actually are, and how we should deal with them so that SOMETHING can get done." You can never […]
