Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative).

Such nice civil discourse from you. Perhaps you should step away from the computer and calm down.
No YOUUUUU. The blame game is pointless here. It's really, when it comes down to it, exactly why Republicans win elections. Good job!
Just keep asking questions sea lion.
Keep losing elections because you’re too busy chasing the mythical centrist unicorn who won’t vote for you anyway in a general. Keep losing, loser.
The world has spoken. Neoliberalism is over! country after country has thrown the neoliberals out of office after they’ve decimated the working class and turned most of us into debt slaves.
Go back to brunch liberal. Don’t you have some ‘work’ to do poolside? Liberals are completely and utterly out of touch and fucking delusional.
Meanwhile queers like myself are in the fucking crosshairs while liberals time and time again ratfuck elections to protect their class while lying about sAvInG dEmOcRaCy. Where’s your January 6? You’re just gonna roll over and hand over power to tHe NeXt HiTlEr? I expect nothing more than some ineffectual marching in circles with signs while crying. That will show the fascists!
You are so wound up in your anger you can't even have a reasonable dialogue. You don't even realize that shouting angrily at people just makes you look like a fool.
I don't want centrist anything, I want socialism. Calling me a liberal is about the funniest thing I've heard all week.
But you are so angry you can't even read the words. You assume I'm things I'm not. LOLLOLOL.
The central difference between us is that instead of angrily shaking my fist and shouting at people so much I can't hear a damned thing they say - I acknowledge I'm not the main character and that listening can accomplish far more than yelling in a blind range.
I hope you live a better life and recover from your anger. I highly recommend long hikes, good food, good friends and practicing gratitude.
