btw Kanye did a song Heil Hitler and no one stepped in to oppose his tour(s), which is ongoing. In fact, Kanye is scheduled to perform at one of the stadiums Macklemore has been stopped from being at.

Ed was in a fucked up position. He knew it. His typical apolitical stance was being challenged in a way it never had been before. He told me that the words
"Free Palestine" and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to a lot of people he spoke with. I told him that if those words were more offensive than tens of thousands of Palestinian children being killed by Israel, then there was a fundamental disconnect between where those people stood and where I stood. But he couldn't get past his public facing, "I don't take sides."

the top of the wikipedia entry for Betteridge's Law, which is summarized as any headline that asks a question can be answered with a flat 'no'. As any headline confident of its assertion would simply state the fact. 

The text itself is in the wikipedia format of a white background with plain black text and minimalist formatting.

There is no valid place in any political spectrum for anything more right wing than a sort of socially left leaning democrat. And it's all of the media and political machines jobs to keep you from realizing that.

The idea of the 'culture war' is always so weird to me, because like, is it really a war if there isn't two sides? Really, it's more of a cultural terrorism campaign than anything.

i kept mum on parton, curry, & steinem's deaths, but robin morgan was the one who at the west coast lesbian conference in 1973 declared trans women to be dangers to lesbians and was one of the foremost misogynists towards trans women in the second wave, her legacy will be forever tainted by this.

IMHO if you helped to invent a now very popular stereotype that a minority group (in this case, trans people) are sexual predators "with the mentality of a rapist", then that should most certainly be in the first paragraph of your obituary, no matter what other good or decent deeds you may have done

I understand your new angle is this "western values/ christian family man" thing but it's such a weird choice. You are not a family man, you are a serial adulterer who won't stop fucking lying about your own children. You are not a christian, as far as I'm aware you've never stepped foot in a church. You are not some "bastion for equality/progress". You called arabic the "language of the enemy" when I was 6, have been sued for discrimation multiple times, and are from Apartheid South Africa.
You are not "saving the planet", you do not give a fuck about climate change and you're lying about multi-planetary civilization as both an excuse, and because you want to seem like the CEO from Ready Player One.

Your reminder that fairy tales are full of stepmothers because women once routinely died in childbirth, from postpartum sepsis, or from other infectious diseases and left behind housefuls of motherless children. Stable nuclear families are made possible by vaccines, antibiotics, and safe abortions.

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease
"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market. Vaccines for Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, and shingles have been shelved.”
