These text messages between Robinson and his roommate have real "how do you do fellow kids" vibes. Until we see actual screenshots, I have a hard time believing a single word of it

In a perfect world, all of the "justices" on the SC will be held accountable for their dismantling of democracy. Not going to hold my breath though

Nah, I'm good on that. I've been to plenty of churches in my life. I've been to my wifes church in Nebraska plenty of time, actually liked most of what the pastor preached. Until he mentioned "loving everybody" and the people forced him out for a MAGA lover. I'm sure there are a lot of "good"...

Tell me, or better yet show me, how he embodies the lessons of Jesus. For anybody other than white males, that is. Show me examples of him trying to bring people together. For anybody other than white males, that is. But, to be fair, that's what modern Christianity is. Hate this group, this...

If he was the beacon of christianity that the right is making him out to be, then Christianity has a major problem. My hope is that his version turns off more young people than those that flock to it. He's the living embodiment of "There's no hate like Christian love"

At this point, Kirk might be rivaling trump as the most quoted but "taken out of context" person in history.

I understand what you're saying, and I'm glad that kid spoke up. But it also reeks of "The adults have tried nothing, and we're all out of ideas. Your turn kids!"

I also see the party of free speech, law and order, rebuking cancel culture, and loving the constitution strikes again. It's honestly terrifying how quickly MAGA willingly gives up their rights for their cult leader.

This was his schtick. He was a talented debater and purposefully picked on people he knew he could "win" a debate against. IIRC, he would avoid people like Dean Withers on his "tour". This is like praising LeBron for going to a college campus to play basketball against ordinary people.

The shooter at the school in Evergreen came from a very wealthy family, apparently lived in a very nice gated neighborhood. TBH, to me it's the same exact thing as kids joining gangs. Looking for a sense of belonging and family, people they can "trust" and be themselves around. Whether we...

Until we address why young males, particularly white ones, are so susceptible to being radicalized online, this will keep happening. That's the conversation that needs to happen. But until we name it and call it what it is, which I don't see happening any time soon, buckle the eff up.

Ok, that was a good one

But how does she feel about the republicans voting to not release the epstein files? Or was her crying just performative?

I honestly think that's trivializing the situation, and these things will keep happening until we address these issues. Was he "mentally ill"? Maybe, I'm not a Dr. Was he radicalized online? Sure seems so. Just like the shooter in Evergreen. Do a lot of these kids that are radicalized online...
