How this vile, disgusting, and immoral behavior has become normalized in the United States is something our descendants will study in school, to the shame of our generation.”

    If the concept of shame itself could have shame, that lecherously vile piece of human-shaped dogshit is an example of what shame’s shame would look like on a lecherously vile piece of human-shaped dogshit.

    You are all missing the point … Reiner is drawing attention so Trump needs to make it about HIM again.

      Well, this is coming from an Evangelical. Pedophilia is fairly common in those spheres.

      No, just adds to it. One more disappointment in a litany of disappointments. He will never be held responsible until his dying day. So social outrage is the only consequence of note.

    “Funny” thing is, Netanyahu did the same on the same day about the shooting in Australia. Fucking fascist boomers.

    But evangelicals are also a shame of our generation.

          That’s easy to say, but making it reality is a harder task because of gerrymandering, voter suppression, racism in the justice system, and of course the giant disaster of campaign financing, which guarantees that corporate lackeys are going to fill congressional seats in large numbers…

          And I’m not saying we shouldn’t try. But don’t rush to blame “the people” when many of us are trying quite hard to effect positive change. Or blame us, if you want, but then you’ll be helping maintain the status quo.

    I know they despised each other, but the Reiners aren’t even in the ground yet. Have some respect for his surviving family you stinky cankleoid.

      But remember, the conservatives are better because they don’t celebrate the deaths of people they don’t like, unlike the left who made light of Charlie Kirk’s death.

            Yes, you have a problem with that? Or should I have said “our party” since they swap terms every four to eight years?

            I stand corrected, okay, “our party” it is.

    Yeah, our entire generation, as in everyone alive today, is going to be viewed as ape-like knuckle dragging dipshits by future generations, assuming they aren’t even more stupid than we are.

    That’s our legacy in the annals of history. Dipshits.

      Ah that’s not true. Have you visited countries that were formerly ruled by dictatorial governments? Everyone knows that the average citizen wasn’t responsible for national level badness. There’s no judgment on the ordinary person, because blaming the victims is rather pointless.

        How many of those countries democratically elected those dictators with full knowledge of who they were and what they were planning?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
