Though I do take umbrage at the sentence which says "Clapton had just stolen George Harrison's wife..." which implies that women are objects/property to be stolen. Otherwise, pretty much articulates how I feel about him.
Regardless, I'm relieved that I hate Clapton's music so I don't have to feel conflicted about him. He's a dick, his music sucks, and he looks like he smells like a wet goat.

Despite hitting a kid in the face twice instead of realising that probably wasn’t Senator behaviour he blamed the kid’s mother and said she should have slapped him round the face years ago (also a criminal offence).WestwayKid wrote: ↑18 Mar 2019, 11:21amThat kid is awesome!

Really, I'm only posting this for the malfunctioning clone-of-a-clone photo. I really thought our future overlords would look more appealing.

No, no, if we expose their views to the public, everyone, including the Nazis, will see that they're wrong. /centrist enablersrevbob wrote: ↑27 Mar 2019, 9:19pmIts about time they banned that shit .

Back in the olden days, one major illness or death could completely destroy a family, leaving them destitute and dependent upon the charity of others. Good thing that's in the past, huh?

Smug liberals and rural decline. Reminds me a lot of Tom Frank's analysis.

Yeah. Horrifying.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

More so, he's currently charged with three counts of fraud and bribery, yet still wins election? It really is stunning what right-wing voters will tolerate in their candidates as long as they're sufficiently malicious.

Re: The Dictator observations thread.
It’s not like Gantz is particularly left-wing either. The left in Israel is looking pretty dead. also with that nation-state law, I don’t blame Arab Israelis for giving up and abstaining.
