I mean, we literally have research that says this. With TV it works because shows are DESIGNED to have segues/scenes where advertising can go, so we perceive it as less disruptive. You can’t just drop advertising in any old where. Shockingly, people fucking HATE that.
I mean getting the government running is a priority RN. I’m sure Dems will get to it in time
Like they got around to closing Gitmo right?
the bill wasnt to fund ICE by itself the bill was to FUND THE GOVERNMENT PERIOD. Like seriously voting no to stop funding the government specifically to stop ICE from being funded is 1. not actually going to deal with the problem of abolishing ICE and 2. Only will continue to harm those who are affected by the shutdown. Like those whos families need the welfare programs that the bill voted to fund??
If we want to abolish ICE you dont do that by just saying ‘hi i vote to stop funding it’ once?? it takes LEGISLATION and WORK. Not just voting on one bill that isnt even focused on the issue at hand.
this is such a bullshit outrage piece and yall keep falling for it. incredible.
also, where’s that post where ppl were misrepresenting her views on deportation? because she is in favor of deporting actual dangerous people.
It wasn’t even ‘dangerous people’ in general that people were attacking her over- it was one single actual nazi war criminal.
Yall need to be real careful about what outrage you uncritically swallow about Dems right now, because if you think that it won’t be used to divide and screw over the left like in 2016, you’re naive as hell.
You want 4 more years of Trump? This is how you get 4 more years of Trump.
^ for last comment. Channel your outrage where it belongs: Trump and the GOP. Neo-Nazis, white supremacists and your hateful Uncle Bill and Aunt Trudy. You wanna shade on Democrats? Try Sen. Joe Manchin and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and their fucked up loyalties and hateful speech.
You see how she explained how race is a social construct (it is) while ALSO SAYING THAT RACISM EXISTS AND IS FUCKED UP? You see how she did that? Don’t mistake this for colorblindness because it clearly isn’t.
i have so many Feelings about the word ‘bitch’. i love when it’s used humorously (’i’m out here ruining my own life as always bitch’), i love when it’s reclaimed (’i’m a boss-ass bitch’), i love when my female friends call me jokingly (‘listen here bitch’), but when a man says it? sirens, warning lights. when a man calls a woman it it comes with such hatred. it’s stabbing. it’s sharp and vile and it drips misogyny. it’s funny how the word can be fine 95% of the time and the other 5% of the time it genuinely fills me with fear
The Times probably should have waited until after the Kavanaugh coverage slowed down, but then there probably would have just been some other big shit storm stirring up because every day is a hell day full of shit storms in the Trump Presidency, ensuring that every shitty thing he does gets buried in the latest shit storms.
