It's just that there was no law stopping private institutions from barring women from doing those things. Some women could and did do those things when financial institutions didn't discriminate. It's still really fucked up either way, though.

Who cares how good it is when the party's individuals and ideals have fundamentally changed?

The way media was covering it was so incredibly stupid anyway. I just saw a bunch of apologists for Republicans on mainstream media and an effort to depoliticize an inherently political act.

If this is the way they will be, then alternative media, with all its flaws, has to step up.

No joke, their discography is AMAZING. They have a very long run of fantastic records back to back.

What's the actual point of saying "regard"? Might as well just say the word if you have to import and transfer the exact same meaning of the r word to a new word. Why should it be any less offensive since using "regard" in this way invokes (and is totally contingent on) the r word's use and meaning.

Love when decent media figures begin to tweet oversimplified false dichotomies that defang valid critique in the name of controversial engagement farming.

Chris Cuomo and his son meeting for the first time after life-long estrangement

This is why I find it insane that "conservatives" and "christians" think themselves the restorers of meaning. They are the most post-modern, nihilistic people.

"Trump's words don't matter."

They abandon language itself, along with all concepts. They are a nietzschean nightmare, imo.

1) A cat's ability to reason is so significantly worse than a human that ascribing equal moral culpability is strange. 2) Even if your example is good, it's nothing compared to the wanton cruelty humans engage in against one another and to animals. Billions tortured for no good reason.

Is that supposed to highlight hypocrisy? The details of each case have very little in common aside from people dying, so the implication that principles are being contradicted is kinda dumb no matter your stance. As useless as observing "people who are pro revolutionary war are anti J6."

I like Arendt on Freedom and Politics quite a bit, though i gotta disagree with her idea on what belongs to the "public" sphere. Her claim that freedom and sovereignty are incompatible is something modern politics sadly never wants to reckon with.

Idk... Now conservatives are going to be so exhausted from pretending that Kid Rock is good
