Jim Acosta is getting criticized for what he did at the Trump Kim Summit
“Mr. Kim will you give up your nuclear weapons, sir?” the reporter shouted as they left. "
Lol. People are saying take away his press pass. I disagree this time. Keep him around. CNN deserves him. Why give them the chance to hire someone who might be maybe a little bit less of a weasel? No, they earned him.
And some say he put the summit at risk cuz he shouted like a jackass. I think this gives this lunatic too much credit in this instance.
And a few are defending him, saying it was a legit question given what the summit was about. Lol...nope, not true. It would be a legitimate question if he was able to sit down and have an actual interview with Kim. This wasn't that. The process of denuclearizing is a bit more complex than any answer he could give in such a short time frame(there was an entire press corps there, it wasn't just Jim, though I know he likes to think it is all about him).
And just cuz it's funny, I'm copying and pasting the first paragraph off the wiki entry for "social justice".
"Social justice is a concept of fair and just relations between the individual and society. This is measured by the explicit and tacit terms for the distribution of wealth, opportunities for personal activity, and social privileges. In Western as well as in older Asian cultures, the concept of social justice has often referred to the process of ensuring that individuals fulfill their societal roles and receive what was their due from society.[1][2][3] In the current global grassroots movements for social justice, the emphasis has been on the breaking of barriers for social mobility, the creation of safety nets and economic justice."
Lol...what does it sound like they are describing here?
They're not even hiding the fact that social justice is just communism. It's amazing. People called Obama a socialist during his presidency and that was wrong because calling someone a socialist was vile.
Then Bernie Sanders came around. And socialism was A-Okay. And now it's just full-blown communism.
Okay this is something that legit triggers me because it is a legit possibility the Dems will win in mid terms. And it's also possible they will beat Trump in 2020. Having these people in power would disturb me based on a recent decision in Ohio. The vote was to uphold a policy they have for removing ineligible and outdated voters from its rolls. They were trying to get rid of the policy. The policy was upheld in a 5-4 vote. As you might guess..all 4 votes were from liberal judges.
Why would they be against this? As this article explains, the reasons they gave make no actual sense:
A victory for election integrity
Notice what needs to happen for someone to be removed?
"The Court’s decision is clearly correct. The NVRA specifically allows states to remove, on change of residence grounds, a registered would-be voter who does not vote, who then fails to respond to a notice, and who then fails to vote in any election during the period covering the next two general federal elections. As Justice Alito explained, the Ohio practice at issue “follows the [NVRA] to the letter,” it being “undisputed that Ohio does not remove a registrant on change-of-residence grounds unless the registrant is sent, and fails to mail back a return card, and then fails to vote for an additional four years.”
The majority rejected the silly argument that because Ohio uses the absence of “voter activity” to trigger the removal process, it violates the requirement that a state purge “shall not result in the removal of the name of any person . . . by reason of the person’s failure to vote.” Ohio does not run afoul of this prohibition because using non-voting to trigger the process is not the same thing as removing voters by reason of not voting. Ohio requires more than mere non-voting, so a person can not vote and still remain registered. "
It's not easily done. They try to say this impacts the poor. Really? The poor can't even mail a damn card in now?
My question is...if voter fraud is really the non-issue they claim it is...why fight so adamantly against something like this? This has been a policy already in effect since 1993.

You guys need an occasional reminder that this thread is a testament to all the things that trigger you, and that your continued posting in it is pathetic.
299 pages of stoking your outrage over nothing of consequence.

The problem is a lot of these pages are full of people laughing at those who are actually triggered.
Nice try though.

Nope. If you get sent voter registration in the mail and do not send the card back and then do not vote at all for the next 6 years...THEN you lose it.
Also a voter who was removed would apparently be able to cast a provisional ballot if the show up on the day of the vote. Not sure if that is true, I gleaned it from reading the comments and saw more than one person mention that. Though one person specified Colorado, so it might depend on the state.
So it seems this will impact either those who just don't ever wanna vote again...or just the extremely lazy.
I'm shocked to see the thousands of people who turned out to support Tommy Robinson. I've seen some suggest it might have been close to 20,000.
I thought this thing would have died down by now, but it seems to be picking up steam.
Tommy CAN be kind of an a-hole at times. But there are people who otherwise wouldn't care about Tommy who now might feel some level of sympathy for him. I don't think they thought this one through.
Plus the optics of what he was trying to report on...yikes.

Like I want them to denounce it not as some bullshit gotcha moment, if they denounce it I'm not gonna throw it at them like "HAHA THIS IS YOUR SIDE THIS REPRESENTS YOU SOMEHOW." On the contrary, if they denounced the SJW and marxist shit in harsher terms, they would make a clear point that it is not in line with their own stances... yet they won't do it for some reason. They act like all of this shit is normal and us finding it appalling is what's weird.
Speaking of which... here's a whopper:
"Why can't we hate men?" by the Washington Post
Seen in this indisputably true context, it seems logical to hate men. I can’t lie, I’ve always had a soft spot for the radical feminist smackdown, for naming the problem in no uncertain terms. I’ve rankled at the “but we don’t hate men” protestations of generations of would-be feminists and found the “men are not the problem, this system is” obfuscation too precious by half.
So, in this moment, here in the land of legislatively legitimated toxic masculinity, is it really so illogical to hate men?
But we’re not supposed to hate them because . . . #NotAllMen. I love Michelle Obama as much as the next woman, but when they have gone low for all of human history, maybe it’s time for us to go all Thelma and Louise and Foxy Brown on their collective butts.
We are told he’s with us and #NotHim. But, truly, if he were with us, wouldn’t this all have ended a long time ago? If he really were with us, wouldn’t he reckon that one good way to change structural violence and inequity would be to refuse the power that comes with it?
So men, if you really are #WithUs and would like us to not hate you for all the millennia of woe you have produced and benefited from, start with this: Lean out so we can actually just stand up without being beaten down. Pledge to vote for feminist women only. Don’t run for office. Don’t be in charge of anything. Step away from the power. We got this. And please know that your crocodile tears won’t be wiped away by us anymore. We have every right to hate you. You have done us wrong. #BecausePatriarchy. It is long past time to play hard for Team Feminism. And win.
So basically she's saying **** all men, it's okay to blanket hate all men based on some presumption of collective guilt, she says women have every right to hate all men, and that the only thing men can do to repent for their sin of how they were born is to become subservient to women... and even then she'll still treat you like second class human beings.
The author of this article is Suzanna Danuta Walters who is... you guessed it... a professor of sociology at Northeastern University in Boston. Oh no, but that's not where it ends, she's also the director of the Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program at this University.

I don't support Tommy Robinson. I don't know enough about the guy. But him being thrown into jail for reporting on a crime is a huge injustice. I support his release from prison. Free speech!
Well the context is he was previously put on probation for doing essentially the same thing. But it's just a garbage law IMO. Yes I get that sometimes courtrooms do not allow in cameras, etc.
But to not even be able to film outside the place the trial is taking place is just weird. And I am convinced they went after him so hard is also because it has to do with muslim grooming gangs.
Oh and since you can't report on the trial...for a brief amount of time you couldn't report on what happened to Tommy(in the UK at least) because the report would mention the trial lol. But it got over turned.

I think it has to do with who a majority of the posts come from: me. It's similar to Trump Derangement Syndrome. Surtur Derangement Syndrome.
