This is such unbridled horseshit. I live in fucking California, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen a Fuck Trump shirt/flag/bumper sticker/whatever in person. I can't go a day without seeing Let's Go B

Yep. I was a George Will/Ronald Reagan/Al Laffer conservative.  I genuinely thought that if you cut taxes for the upper classes, then they would spend and invest and the economic result of that w

Almost time to merge this thread with the running Alt-right mockery thread.

 

Not to completely discredit the SPLC, but they have Ayan Hirsi Ali on their hate list for speaking out against Islamic oppression of women. They lost almost all of their credibility with me with that move. Ayan is a heroic voice and it is ridiculous that they would put her on their list.

That's when they lost their credibility with you? Really?

Absolutely. Why on earth would anyone put Hirsi on a hate list. Speaking out against the misogyny found in Muslim countries apparently is hate speech according to the SPLC. Being a feminist and trying to oppose repression is cool as long as we don’t offend Muslims is their viewpoint. Moronic.

If she limited her criticism to misogyny she might have a point. She would do well to apply such criticisms to Christianity, particularly Roman Catholicism.

Instead, she paints all of Islam as extreme and urges moderate Muslims to convert to Christianity.

She might not be a hate monger, but many of her views are worthy of scorn.

Her background and experience is with Islam. It’s natural that is what she focuses on. Same thing with Masih Alinejad who speaks out against forced hijab in Iran. I haven’t read about her saying that all Muslims should convert. Nevertheless, by your own admission she doesn’t belong on a hate list. The SPLC loses credibility when it does that.

And she loses credibility when she paints with a broad brush. 

If Islam is a problem, so are all organized religions.

BI sucks but this is funny

Quote

Lieu read headlines from a Google search about House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Noting that the first few articles about Scalise were favorable to him and included those from conservative media outlets, Lieu asked Pichai whether people at Google were manipulating those results to favor Scalise.

"You don't have a group of people at Google sitting there thinking, 'Hey, we like Steve Scalise, so we're going to generate positive articles on these search results,'" he said. "That's not what's happening, right?"

Pichai said no, adding, "We don't deal with individual queries and with any viewpoint."

But then Lieu pivoted, pulling out his smartphone for a Google search in real time and entering King's name.

King, who was sitting across the room on the powerful House panel, became visibly perturbed.

"I'm going to change one word. So I'm going to search for 'Congressman Steve King,' I'm going to hit the 'News' tab," Lieu said. "First article that pops up is from ABC News. It says 'Steve King's racist immigration talk prompts calls for congressional censure.' That's a negative article. But you don't have a group of people at Google sitting there thinking and trying to modify search results — every time Steve King comes up, a negative article appears. That's not what's happening, right?"

Pichai again said no, reiterating that Google does not manipulate results for people in that way.

"So let me just conclude here by stating the obvious," Lieu responded. "If you want positive search results, do positive things. If you don't want negative search results, don't do negative things.

"And to some of my colleagues across the aisle, if you're getting bad press articles and bad search results, don't blame Google or Facebook or Twitter — consider blaming yourself," he added.

The real victims.

People don’t hate you because you’re “conservative.” They hate you because you spout bullshit. For example, he has the nerve to say that he’s a conservative because he believes in “truth and reason.” Yet the movement is entirely beholden to the greatest liar American politics has ever seen. Kinda like how they claim to be the movement of fiscal responsibility, yet charge headlong into creating record deficits in record time as if their very lives depend on it. Or maybe people loathe how “conservatives” celebrate creating and expanding concentration camps for kids.

You aren’t scorned for what you ARE. You are scorned for what you say and do. That’s how a marketplace of ideas works: your ideas are so fucking shitty that you should hide in a hole.

Gov Wheels Facebooked this yesterday after some cops were grazed by bullets in north Houston. Suspect killed himself.:

 

"Prayers for these law enforcement officers shot in the line of duty. We thank and support those who risk their lives to keep us safe."

Did he post pics of these heroic cops? Nah, he went with Cholo Mezkin MS-13 Cartel Sicario McTatface instead. KEEP FEAR ALIVE!

Are there any queers in the theater tonight?
Get them up against the wall!
There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right to me,
Get him up against the wall!
That one looks Jewish!
And that one's a coon!
Who let all of this riff-raff into the room?
There's one smoking a joint,
And another with spots!
If I had my way, 
I'd have all of you shot!

can we elect an entirely different congress consisting of no one over the age of 55 to have exclusive authority over anything electronic? 

Like that would change anything. The tech savvy have better things to do with their time. You'd just get a bunch of people who can't edit their Tapa sig or post a proper url.

My favorite Steve King moment from today...he is such a clueless ass

 

 

Also if I may direct a quesiton to Mr. Pichai? Why is it when I just googled 'Step mom' does the woman in glasses directly behind your right shoulder come up .... on a site named, and let me get this right, called 'Brazzers'?

 

 

 

Serious question, thouhg: Who is the woman in red behind Rep Cohen? Damn.
