Nobody's suggesting it wasn't. But a lot of us have lived our whole lives with the idea that racism was generally frowned upon by most and that it was naturally dying out. I don't think many of us could have predicted how readily it would come roaring back, along with god damn nazis, FFS.

Sounds like what you're looking for is socialism, friend. It's still a scary word to many, many people, but mostly because they don't really understand what it means. But more and more people every day are finally realizing that capitalism is fucking almost all of us and needs to be stopped. Keep talking and educating, others AND yourself. It's going to take a while (possibly longer than we have as a society) to turn this behemoth, but it will only happen once enough people are on board.

Never forget. Never forgive.

I always say, I've literally never seen anyone get upset over hearing merry christmas, but I've witnessed plenty of people lose their shit over hearing happy holidays.

If you're going to link an article that requires a subscription or login, you should at least provide a summary.

3 times as fast as 100? I don't know what you're expecting here. It's 83.3 metres per second, if that helps. Your friend must have a nice car, there's not many that can go that fast, and even fewer that can do it and still handle predictably.

Can't have people keeping the truth if you're planning to rewrite history.

The law is now whatever trump says it is.

Both the article and the summary forgot to mention HOW he was forced to scale anything back. I assume it's a court order? If that's the case, it remains to be seen whether it has any effect.

In what way is he your boyfriend? He doesn't sound like he is. Poly is really hard, and it's full of shitty people who use it as a justification for being shitty. Sounds like you need to do a whole bunch of work on yourself right now, and it doesn't really sound like either of your "partners" are good for you.

Fuck fetterman. Don't give that worthless piece of shit the recognition.

Couple of reasons in my experience. Cigarettes have a generous butt, and are pretty structurally sound, which makes them pretty easy to handle that way, and you can ash with a simple flick of your thumb. Joints often have no butt, or just some folded up but of paper or some other dodgy bullshit, so there's far less to grab onto. They're also often pretty flimsy, and fall apart easily. So holding them that way gives you better control and is more gentle on the joint.
