This will age poorly. Another masterclass in dodging uncomfortable realities from the DNC.
can we please stop with the "skip to main content" links that are literally the first thing on the page? who is this supposed to be helping, exactly?
we all know the answer to that question. Another reminder that the rich don't get richer through honest work.

I've been thinking and the only way to truly address our national debt is to raise the retirement age, it's just basic math and it's time to stop making promises to future
Cannot believe we're still having to fight for this to be taken seriously

Wow, 42 years? That seems like an awfully harsh sentence. Even for a sprawling fraud case. I wonder what the full details are and if it's really warranted.

Justice has finally been served. It's about time someone is held accountable for their vile and hurtful actions.
This is a pretty bold claim from Woz. I'm not sure I'm convinced that current AI systems have genuine "intelligence" the way humans do. Let's see what the details say.

can we please make it a requirement for news websites to clearly label opinion pieces as such?
It's pretty clear the GOP doesn't want to cross Trump, even on such an important issue. Disappointing, but not surprising.
Actually, this latest trend is quite concerning. We need to be more mindful of the impact our actions have on the environment and our community.
I'm so sick of these politicians and the media just spinning everything to fit their own agendas.
The constant political bickering and misleading media narratives are exhausting. Can we please get some actual solutions and accountability instead of empty rhetoric and
The constant bickering and political grandstanding from our so-called leaders is really starting to wear me down.
it's getting old that politicians and pundits get to say they're "exploring options" and "considering different scenarios" when they really just have no idea what they're doing
Because nothing says "boosting national security" like the US government becoming a venture capitalist and taking equity stakes in private companies.

The latest polling shows a tight race, but I'm concerned that the reporting is focusing too much on horse race coverage instead of the actual policy issues that matter to people's
if you're still on facebook and think it's because of nostalgia, please just admit to yourself that you're scared of change and having to make a new online home.
The depth of depravity among certain politicians is staggering, and yet there are still people who want to give them a free pass.
The latest poll shows that public opinion on this issue is split down the middle. I'd encourage everyone to actually read the article and form their own views, rather than just
Watching the latest footage of the oil spill and I'm still waiting for the environmental impact report to be made public - seems like a detail to leave out of the 'everything is
Let's not forget that impeachment isn't just about removal from office, it's also about accountability and recording history - and at this point, it's a necessity.
Actually, this policy is more nuanced than just a hot take. The polling shows there are valid concerns on both sides that need to be addressed thoughtfully.
it's wild how people will spend 10 minutes arguing with a stranger on the internet about a trivial issue but can't muster the energy to fact-check the information they're debating.
I'm so tired of people calling something "canceled" just because a few people got upset about it online - real cancel culture is when a company or person is actually held
This is the bipartisan compromise I've been waiting for. Guess you could call it "AOC country" now?
if you're not considering the historical context of why certain communities are more vulnerable to gentrification, you're not actually talking about gentrification
have you ever noticed that every single article about "boosting productivity" assumes you're a single person with no family or responsibilities outside of work, and then wonders
It's wild to me that the latest scandal involving a high-ranking government official isn't getting the attention it deserves in the media, but I guess that's what happens when a
The masks from the racists went off in a rapid heartbeat? How convenient - now they can go back to being openly bigoted without the social pressure.
I'm so done with people saying "no offense" or "not to be rude" when they're about to say something super hurtful or uninformed.
Actually, read the article before sharing hot takes on internet stuff. The polling data shows a more nuanced picture than the clickbait headlines.
great, I'm sure this won't cause a huge panic and overreaction like last time. What could possibly go wrong?

because what could possibly go wrong, we're getting ready for another night of borderline unconstitutional last-minute ballot changes and soul-sucking election delay drama.

the fact that people are still using "based" unironically is a perfect example of how quickly internet trends can be co-opted and stripped of their original meaning
Wow, this headline is pretty alarming. If true, it sounds like a massive abuse of power and a clear conflict of interest.
it's staggering that a global pandemic has been raging for over two years and our leaders are still debating how to effectively address it, meanwhile thousands of people are dying
Why do people always claim to be "running on fumes" when they're tired, but never when they're actually getting a decent amount of sleep?
can we please take a step back and actually read the article instead of just screaming about the headline?
Wow, what a coincidence that the IRS suddenly decided to drop its tax claims against the former president. Totally not a politicized decision at all.

This latest political scandal is a real mess. The facts seem murky and it's hard to know what to believe.
just because a subreddit has a million subscribers doesn't mean their opinions are representative of anything beyond their own echo chamber, let's not pretend otherwise
This is really concerning. I hope global health organizations are able to contain the spread of Ebola quickly and effectively.
