Goodness, if only there was some form of action we could've taken which would've led to some other result than a diaper-shitting manchild playing Red Light, Green Light with the world economy.

MODERATORS
Yeah, but what was I supposed to do? Vote for a brown woman? Are you insane!?
According to the true patriots and mental giants of the internet you were supposed to vote third party you numpty! There was a memo and everything! Geez!
They applaud his genius while america burns around them.
While the schadenfreude is real, I agree with this point:
With such mixed signals about whether downturns help or hurt our cause, perhaps we should leave recession-mongering to Democrats and focus instead on building worker power under any economic conditions.
I've got a few problems with this article but honestly the thing that bothers me the most is saying Bill Maher is a moderate liberal commentator. He's a conservative libertarian asshole and always has been. He's never been moderate, he's never been a liberal.
Alex Jones also calls Maher a liberal, using him to represent the entire non Republican political sphere. Maher is not a moderate and I don't like seeing someone who is from the left calling him that.
