To some extent the Republicans found a form of virtual rubber gloves by suggesting that Social Security could be improved by attaching it to the ever-increasing free enterprise stock market, although for some reason that idea lost favor in 2008.<br /><br />Now there’s another one. Milo Yiannopoulos, having spewed enough hatred for POC, Jews, Muslims, women, and Trans* people that decent human beings would have nothing to do with him, suddenly lost millions of others by coming out in favor of adult/teen sex (and specifically adult/teen gaysex, which presumably is even worse), saying it worked for him when he was 14. He lost a book contract and a couple of jobs, and now we’re hearing that what’s wrong with Lord Dampnut and his lovable sidekick Bannon Boy is that they have <a href="http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2017/02/21/trump_steve_bannon_and_pedophilia_defender_milo_yiannopoulous_have_a_history.html?wpsrc=newsletter_slatest&amp;sid=5388cda7dd52b81e7a00234e">Milo cooties</a>.<br /><br />Thanx to <span style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='https://twistedchick.dreamwidth.org/profile'><img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png' alt='[personal profile] ' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='https://twistedchick.dreamwidth.org/'><b>twistedchick</b></a></span><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=supergee&ditemid=1876168" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-01:156313:1661368 2016-04-04T09:53:42Z 2016-04-04T09:53:42Z public 0 <a href="http://www.jamesaltucher.com/2014/03/the-ultimate-cheat-sheet-for-dealing-with-haters/"> Dealing with haters </a><br /><br />Thanx to <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/">Metafilter</a><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=supergee&ditemid=1661368" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-01:156313:1591134 2015-12-16T10:56:37Z 2015-12-16T10:56:37Z public 0 Serena Williams Is <i>Sports Illustrated</i>’s Sportsperson of the Year, which is great, except that the <i>LA Times</i> thought it would be cute to have her run against a <a href="http://www.bet.com/b-real/achievement/2015/12/14/once-again-why-can-t-white-folks-just-let-serena-williams-be-great.html">horse</a>.<br /><br />Thanx to <a href="http://feministing.com/">Feministing</a><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=supergee&ditemid=1591134" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-01:156313:1575438 2015-11-24T21:58:28Z 2015-11-24T21:58:28Z public 0 Woodrow Wilson wasn’t just the first great promoter of the idea that we should send Americans to get killed in the effort to enforce democracy on the whole world. He was also a degenerate racist who undid most of the modest progress Roosevelt and Taft made in desegregating the American government.
