(128,431 posts)Very disheartening.

(14,308 posts)But by all means, be outraged by non-existent identity politics bullshit instead of being pissed off after having been sold out by 8 cowards who would rather fuck over us and the rest of America with the absolute worst horse trade in modern Congressional history.

(128,431 posts)As Skittles so correctly pointed out, some of us are capable of multitasking. And, nowhere have I ever heard that the word in question lost its sexist slur connotation, but do, please, keep trying to defend the indefensible, and deflecting. Sadly, I am not in the least surprised.

(14,308 posts)Also, did you not read any of the numerous 2024 post-mortems that cited overly sensitive language and identity politics as contributors to our loss last year? Keep doubling down on absolute nonsense and we'll lose again.
niyad
(128,431 posts)Again, do keep trying.

(1,843 posts)Let them gloat. We deserve this. This was an act self-immolation, pure and simple. What are people realistically expecting, sympathy and good sportsmanship from the biggest sh*theels on terra firma?
No, sorry, but if you want respect in fight, you gotta fight ... especially when you're actually WINNING THE FIGHT. However, when you surrender midway through the joust and then drop your drawers and spread cheek wider than 50,000 Sahara deserts, you lose any right to complain the next day about waking up with a sore a-hole. Sorry, but true.
