abaldwin360: stfuconservatives: (trigger warning for animal abuse, violence) think-progress: Last night, a Democratic campaign manager in Arkansas arrived home to find his child’s cat murdered, the word ‘LIBERAL’ written on the carcass.  Why do things like this happen? Right wing media dehumanizes their opponents. The same way religion dehumanizes their opponents.

nomorenowhere: The Revolution will be Tumbled: Alright people, we need to concern ourselves with ACTA chocotaur: Five facts: 1. ACTA isn’t the “European” SOPA. It’s nearly GLOBAL, and will apply to every country that signs the treaty. 2. ACTA is far more aggressive. ACTA will not simply affect websites and have them blocked out of the internet - its measures go as far as surveillance of...

somepolitics: theadamglass: Attention to all self-proclaimed liberals and progressives. I would like to properly introduce you to a man about whom you’ve heard much — especially from his enemies and those who prefer a continuation of the status quo — but at whom you might wish to take a second look, and whom you might consider supporting for president. Unlike Barack Obama, he supports...

mikroblogolas: This topic has been discussed to death, and yet it continually comes up in tumblr discussion. So let me establish once and for all (I swear, I will never discuss this again) that “bisexual” is not an oppressive identity. Bisexual is not binarist.

somepolitics: pieceinthepuzzlehumanity: fearandwar: New Hampshire Republicans are taking textual originalism to a whole new level: three lawmakers have proposed a bill that requires that all legislation find its origin not in the U.S. constitution, but an English document crafted in 1215. When the legislature reconvenes this month, Republicans want their colleagues to justify many new...

prolongedeyecontact: pixyled: doubtingansley: But if a fetus is a human being then we are also giving the person carrying the fetus a right that no one else has - the “right” to kill another human being without  consequences.  The question really boils down to what is more important - the right to bodily autonomy or the right to life? So instead of telling me why it doesn’t matter if a...

10 Reasons Not To Vote For Ron Paul →
stfuconservatives: readyokaygo: 1. Ron Paul does not value equal rights for minorities. Ron Paul has sponsored legislation that would repeal affirmative action, keep the IRS from investigating private schools who may have used race as a factor in denying entrance, thus losing their tax exempt status, would limit the scope of Brown versus Board of Education, and would deny citizenship for...
