Truth
South Carolina, 2015
I say, “I have no more love to give! I have only anger in my heart today, and I want you to be angry with me! That I am sick and I am tired, and I want you to be sick and tired with me! I-I-I am sick and tired of going to the funerals of black men who have been murdered by white men! And I am sick and tired of the people of this country who continue to allow these things to happen!”
—Euologist, Mississippi Burning, 1988

Also, go listen to Run the Jewels. Like, all day.
Reagan
Run the Jewels is great. Like, all-time great. But Killer Mike is goddamn amazing all on his own. This song’s politics are pretty much precisely on point.
And like Mike, I’m glad Reagan’s dead.

“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
Nelson Mandela was one of the greatest human beings of this or any century. He did more for freedom in his lifetime than the United States did, and with cleaner hands.
More Mendacious Bullshit
what is it that is the leading cause of poverty in our country? It’s having kids without marriage.
Rand Paul, as interviewed by Glenn Beck 6/26/13
Uh, no, asshole. It’s an economic system predicated on selling out the future of all but the 1%. So fuck you.
Chuck Grassley is a Liar
Senator Charles E. Grassley of Iowa, the ranking Republican on the Judiciary Committee, said the court’s decision on Tuesday reflected the positive impact of the civil rights legislation and that the legislation was no longer needed.
“What it tells me is after 45 years, the Voting Rights Act worked,” Mr. Grassley said, “and that’s the best I can say. It just proves that it worked.”
Right, Chuck. Racism is totally dead in America.
Fuck you, you asshole; your atavistic bullshit can’t die off soon enough.
There’s no way these people can be this stupid. They know exactly how much the press will report, and that they won’t get called on this mendacious bullshit. Fuck ’em. It would take about half a second to point out that, you know, racism is in fact alive and well.
Not to mention…well, Chuck, if we don’t need the law anymore, then why ar eyou working so hard to get rid of it? It’s not like we’d decriminalize murder if the murder rate dropped to zero, right? That shit would still be wrong, and it would still be a crime.
