@conor64 @brianschatz What is the point of ‘requiring’ permits if there’s no enforcement of the requirement?

[Bill @indignantgoat]

40 years of Reaganomics and terrible immigration policies in places like Florida.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@outsideratilla @Drift0r For sure. What you’re missing, and the reason this is catastrophic, is the speed of the change. We’re seeing 5,000-10,000 years worth of change in the last 70 years.

When you make being ignorant a sport, there will for sure be a champion.

@BoundingComics If men start wars, then why was Trump the first President in recent history to not start any new wars?

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@xaviaer No, that’s the white conservative persecution complex.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

How were they raised?

Far wealthier than me. I see like $100 in housewares and clothes I would have scooped as a teenager.

[Chuck Chalupka @chuck_chalupka]

This is a picture of the trash left behind on a Cape Cod beach on July 4. I know I sound old, but how were these people raised?

[Bill @indignantgoat]

Thanks for quoting the bit that preserves reproductive choice. Too bad the conservative Justices failed to read that part.

@JeninYounesEsq The other problem is, some of the scotus judges seem to have limited knowledge of the Constitution 👇

@PhotobombingC @pacific101 @DiogenesLamp0 @JeninYounesEsq So, once floodwaters recede, the homes that were destroyed are no longer part of the disaster?!

Do you also think that the Civil Rights Act instantly created equality after hundreds of years of oppression?

Being a customer doesn’t make you worthy of respect.

If I have to struggle because I don’t accept $$$ from bigots, so be it.

[Bethany S. Mandel @bethanyshondark]

Dear companies of America: I have no marketing background but I will help your marketing department. Tip one: Know and respect your customers. Tip two: Don’t crap on your customers. That’s it. That’s all there is.

@DisagreeJust @MikeStrazz @NormHullGuy19 @MarcLobliner We would need to counter that removal of demand at all levels with a significant increase in government spending on essential services and infrastructure in order to offset the loss of consumer-based economic activity- housing, education, public transit, etc. 2/2

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@DisagreeJust @MikeStrazz @NormHullGuy19 @MarcLobliner In our current paradigm, if either the people or our government are significantly more “financially responsible”, it would crater the economy to a degree that we haven’t seen in any of our adult lifetimes. 1/2

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@DisagreeJust @MikeStrazz @NormHullGuy19 @MarcLobliner Moral solutions at the national level are kind of a pipe dream. The best we can hope for in the current iteration is “equitably immoral”.

At the end of the day, it’s mostly a shell game. You pay for those loans either thru a general fund, or thru a reduction in growth.

@BillSimmons The problem is Dame is 6’1” and heading deeper into his 30s. Let’s not pretend this is a 32yo Curry.

He’s an under-sized gunner who will struggle to find a starting role on a real contender.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

The problem you’re seeing is racism, not AA. It is purely racism to assume a Black person could not qualify for Harvard, and it’s ignorance to not realize that even people admitted under AA still have to do the work and graduate.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@PoloDon08 @PapoFlacco @currypistonn I dare you to look at the changes made on each of those three teams and come back and repeat your claim with a straight face.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@unbalancedChaos @SwipeWright ‘Colorblind’ benefits those who have benefitted from racism for years.

It’s like saying that a person who has been robbing you for years doesn’t have to return your property once they finally force him to stop stealing from you.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

I mean, if you’re implying Clarence didn’t do the work once he was admitted, I’d believe you [based on his rulings, not his AA status.]

You do get that getting in isn’t the same as succeeding and graduating, right? Regardless of how you get in, you still have to do the work.

[James Newsom Jr @maverickcoach1]

@SwipeWright So were you there because of affirmative action or not? That’s exactly what Clarence Thomas said. That because of affirmative action even though he went to an Ivy League school his degree wasn’t worth as much. It’s like cheating to win.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@psycho_milt @SwipeWright Yep. ‘Merit’ only means something if the playing field is even. We know that it is literally the opposite of even. To pretend that things are fair or even right now is to believe whole-heartedly in racial supremacy.

[Bill @indignantgoat]

@dekach1n @SwipeWright Yea, because we totally treat everyone equally, and we always have. LOL.
