Liberals are an equal or lesser threat to democracy than open fascists.

I'm willing to bet, life for life, that Caligula had hosed up way fewer people's lives than Mike Pence has.

and hosed fewer horses too

That holds true even if Caligula actually did gently caress a horse or multiple horses, assuming it wasn't just a low-effort political smear.

the levels of horse loving achieved by our vice president are possible only thanks to the advances of modern medical science

Michael Richard Pence, 45th vice president of our glorious United States of America does not, I repeat, does not gently caress horses. He has never hosed a horse, and will never gently caress a horse.
























































































He was hosed BY a horse.

mike pence (the vice president of the united states of america) is the world's most accomplished power bottom. those horses may be inside of him, but he is surely loving them

You know I wonder about that. Kind of seems like the thing a guy might do to show how little he regards the Senate. Doesn't most of our knowledge of Caligula come from people who really loving hated Caligula?

Not that I'm saying he was a great ruler or anything.

yeah it went from "I'm skipping a few really dumb shows like marketplace," to realizing almost all of it was garbage. Science Friday is at least still cool, and half of Fresh Air's interviews are interesting, even if incredibly focused on liberal sensibilities and tastes.
The thing I really noticed from 2014-2016 was how much everyone at NPR was huffing eachother's farts, when a topic or guest that wasn't related to some huge mainstream news event would be on the circuit of every show.

I was smug af reading this thread thinking "It took you idiots until 2016 to figure out this poo poo?" then I got to the NPR post and confirmed what I already knew, that I am also an idiot. I still listen to This American Life (in podcast form) but it went from being the only thing on in the car to something I absolutely can't stand overnight. I would even qualify it exactly this way "Well I don't listen to Marketplace..."

The only other pre-2016 belief I unironically held was that any party running in opposition to Nazis, even the democrats, would have no trouble making a case for people to vote for them that wasn't just "We aren't them." I really did believe that given the gravity of the consequences of losing an election to open white supremacist nationalists that an opposition party would absolutely positively under no circumstances fail to make a compelling case against them, like the idiot I am. They really showed me.

When one first starts coming to grips with the fact that our life- and world-changing technologies will only ever be used for industrial-scale evil, it can be tempting for "smart" people to assume that all technology must necessarily be evil. This boy genius (skipped several grades, was on the state university robotics team) I knew in high school thought that agriculture itself was a mistake, though this was well over 10 years ago. Hopefully he has de-libbed by now but I have no reason to believe he has. :(
