I get the feeling prediction markets work best when set by people with actual knowledge and not by WallStreetBets bros chasing their gambling addiction.

I love the one with the company CEO talking about being a lifetime gambler (um… it’s called being addicted) and the dorkiest looking dude just holding his phone and staring at it like a zombie.

Hopefully this is a reminder to those on either side who want to make “hate speech” illegal. “Hate speech” is defined by those in power and that’s not always going to be you.

What points would you add to our Breaking News Consumer's Handbook: Protest Edition from 2018?

Breaking News Consumer's Handbook: Protest Edition.

1. TV news will fixate on incidents of violence, even if rare and uncharacteristic of the overall event.
2. Oppontents will try to delegitimize protesters by claiming they are "paid" or otherwise dishonest. This is almost always untrue.
3. Measuing crowd sie is an imprecise, politicized enterprise. Be skeptical of hard numbers: view aerial photos and compare sources.
4. Beware loaded terms such as "riot" and "rebellion." They often reveal the political leanings of the media outlets using them.
5. Crowds at protests are so diverse that the media can tell any story the want. Beware broad conclusions based on extreme people or events.
6. Coverage often considers whether protesters left a mess, or helped clean up –– a subtle jab or praise. The truth is somewhere in the middle.
7. Protest coverage tends to be episodic, not long-term. Seek out stories that place events in their larger political and historical context.
8. The media will try to tabulate immediate successes and failures of protests. Remember, their impact may not be felt for years.

I guess Senator Joni Ernst was right, we're all going to die. The only surprise is that it's the "pro-life" party swinging the axe.

I fear it's only a matter of time before one of the cowards with a Rob Liefeld-esque comicly oversized gun puts his finger where it doesn't belong and Neil Young has to write another song.

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

Why the fuck would we expect refugees to be “assimilated easily”!? If they’re fleeing violence and persecution, looking like “us” is a nonsensical, irrelevant criteria.

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Exactly. He wants to go from a (not very) progressive income tax to a horribly regressive consumption tax. I’d hope that if people are presented with a simple question “Who should pay more taxes?” they’d realize income tax is more fair.
