    I don't have a lot of close male friends because of private school, not because of homosexuality. And you'd think the two would be linked, but I was untouched. I'm still hurt by the rejection.

    Columbus is only a good representation of Italian Americans to those who want to promote the idea that Italian Americans are racist genocidal land-stealing ***holes. Somehow I don’t think that’s the intent.

    They really shouldn't have removed the possibility they were ironically suggesting that statue idea.

    And I would ask the open-ended question (because I'm not familiar with it), who would've been a better Italian (or Italian-American) to use than Columbus in a way that would've pushed back on the ideas that Italians didn't belong in America? So, roughly circa 1900.

    Steven Crowder has weaseled his way out of debates with Sam Seder before. Tonight, H3H3 lured Steven onto his show as Seder waited in ambush.

    Crowder talks a very big conservative (and racist and anti-science) talk, but turns to quivering jelly when faced with conflict.

    Crowders show is built around his persona of being the ‘tough,’ ‘funny,’ ‘straight talking’ ‘conservative,’ from which he and his manager dad make a **** tone of money. He’s not well informed about anything however, so the only times he interacts with political opponents they are college campus students not prepared for a debate. He can also edit the footage because he’s not debating someone with complete video on their end.

    On the other hand, Sam Seder is one of the most well informed political commentators on YouTube. Debating him would be like taking a direct hit to the magazine room of the USS Crowder.

    It's funny, and sad, because it's true.

    Because Stringer imploded I don't think Wiley has enough cache to capitalize enough to win, and I was likely voting Garcia anyways and Adams will likely win...

    I like the analogy. Btw, Vaush has a commentary on the incident. Lottsa laughs.

    Stringer was accused of harassing one of his interns years ago. Don't know if Morales did too (different type of harassment), but believe she had different issues

    Jim Crow is when you specifically try to stop Eric Adams from winning a mayor's race

    Garcia at least seems on the level. Wiley just has no experience running anything and appears to struggle to make coalitions. And Donovan does appear to genuinely be a good dude who is just totally out of touch.

    I'd be okay with any of them winning, also still Stringer really, but all signs point to Adams. I hope I'm wrong.

    EDIT: yeah, the racism takes on RCV with people vocally angling to be #2 on someone else's first choice ballot is... something...

    After what I've seen, I hope you're wrong about Adams too.

    I just started playing The Outer Worlds the other day and this is indistinguishable from the stuff that goes on in that game

    Remember, if you didn't want Ben Carson to become president, you're a racist.
