Politico leak: Donald Trump talking to Mar-a-lago club members about staff appointments.Trump often appears to want to include his friends in the decision-making process.
Turning to a longtime club member that night, he said: “We were just talking about who we [are] going to pick for the FCC, who [are] we going to pick for this, who we gonna accept -- boy, can you give me some recommendations?”
"Pay-to-play" indeed.
...(And NO, it really *IS* both sides on that.) One side shouts about how 15 genders is too few-- while the other regales us it how horrible it is that a penis can go into an anus, and how it makes baby jesus cry...
We've been over this already. The VP has actively used electrical torture on gay people. A few annoying teenagers with no political power does not compare. SJWs don't perpetuate abortion clinic attacks, but conservatives do. This false equivalence is why we're in this mess to begin with.
PTTG's right. This isn't a slapfight on the internet where the only stakes in play are feelings. One side is in the White House, with direct and unfiltered access to the President.
I mean for fuck's sake Infowars and Breitbart now
are the establishment.
They set the tone, and
the rest of the world listens. I strongly suggest actually going over to read some of the common conspiracy spots like infowars, alex jones, and /r/conspiracy and such; you'd think they'd have been taken over by the government, they are so pro-establishment! You must not read these people ranting and allow your common sense to assure you that these people are the brethren of the other crazies and deserve to be treated as marginal.
Trump appeared on Alex Jones. Said he loved the show.
Alex Jones now has the ear of the most powerful man in the free world. Seriously comparing these people to SJWs is not the mark of serious analysis at this point. Maybe, intellectually, tumblr folks are the natural opposites of the alt-right, but from the perspective of power and influence it's not even worth making a comparison anymore.
