Triggered: Stories to make you mad.

At least they're standing up for something.

Something extremely stupid, imo, but they're still refusing to bend the knee.

Standing up for the ability to cry over being fired for not doing their job.

Some heroes don't wear capes.

They're also unionized, and Elizabeth Warren has something cooked up.

I don't think the firings will stand. Somehow, the courts will get involved and force the employers hand, like they always do.

If this country is now at the point where you can't fire someone for not doing their job, we deserve all the election interference, etc. Russia and anyone else can throw at us. We do not deserve to be a power in this world.

This seems fairly straightforward. Insubordination is an immediate termination at some places.

They also have tech people who publish those articles. As the tech person publishing the content, or managing the publisher (automated), wouldn't they object to contributing to the insubordination.

Yeah but click the link and read all the woke tweets from the blue check marks who are just aghast that these journalists can't dictate to their bosses what articles they write.

Which of the usual suspects here wants to defend this?

"Taylor noted that the librarian hosting the event reminded the adults that they are role models for the children and that “if anyone gets upset — even grownups — you can leave."

STDs are sexist, and women are the losers. Here's why

CNN is gonna put The Onion out of business.

Some of the reasons STD's are sexist:

-they hurt women more than men
-women can confuse them for yeast infections

Lol.

Reads like satire. I don’t think the word sexist has any punch anymore

I wish it were satire, but in a world where anything and everything can be sexist(air conditioning, climate change, etc) satire has been brutally gang raped and murdered. Then its body was cremated and the ashes were fired into space. Then a space demon raped the ashes.

A liberal writer let's the cat out of the bag on what the Supreme Court nominees mean to them:

Supreme Court Justices Do Make the Law
BY: Wendy Mariner
POSTED ON: July 12, 2018
TOPICS: supreme court, viewpoint
At the July 9 announcement of his nomination to the US Supreme Court, Judge Brett Kavanaugh said that judges should interpret the law, not make the law. The Wall Street Journal subsequently praised Trump for keeping his promise to choose someone “who will faithfully interpret the Constitution as written.”

It is time to stop saying this nonsense. If the law were that easy to interpret and apply, the Supreme Court would have no cases to decide. Anyone who has read the Constitution knows that its brief text is subject to different interpretations, even by so-called originalists. Supreme Court justices do make law; it is the reasons for their decisions that matter. What democracy requires are justices who are non-partisan, independent, and fair. That may not be what we get.

As South Park said, "This is what she actually believes."

The notion that the Supreme Court MAKES laws, is about as ****ed up an opinion as believing that the fight for nominee's is about who gets to make those laws.

You know, as opposed to getting angry about the courts doing something they have no power to do. Why even have a legislator at all, just throw it to the courts.

Sounds more like a Leftist then a Liberal to me.

This is why I trust Republicans with the Judiciary more than I trust either party with any other branch tbh.

By it's very nature, the Judiciary is supposed to be conservative. Literally it's function is to uphold the constitution and laws. If you want some kinda progressive change to the law... do it in the legislature where that shit belongs or amend the constitution.

Speaking of the courts I love the idea of court packing being put forth by some democrats. It's essentially saying "the supreme court can only be counted on when it has a majority of democrats sitting on it".

Well then the question is, be counted on to do what?

We know what a leftist judge looks like.

It looks like Oliver Wendell Holmes. You know, the justice that ruled stupid people should be steralized.

The man has an entire list of disgusting, and probably unconstitutional, rulings.

I never thought about it that way, before. That makes sense.

But if you remember, it was the "conservatives" that put all of the regulations in place for movies, videos games, magazines, news, cars (Nader started it, though), etc.

They want to over-protect and regulate everything. And now they say they don't. But do it anyway.

I give Libs a bunch of shit, but conservatives can pretty easily piss me off too. I'm scrolling through facebook and see this article about a school in Colorado forcing female students to wear hijabs...

I understand that many people may object to their kids wearing it and I don't think there's anything wrong with that... But the damn field trip was optional. Whether someone's objecting to wearing it based purely upon religion or focusing on the specific aspect of hypocritical sexism, either way they're probably so uptight that going to the mosque would probably just piss them off anyway so they should just stay the Hell home. This is not something that people should be flipping out about.

Are you saying conservatives did this? Lol. This is something you'd expect from the left. Or are you saying conservatives should not care?
