Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

“woke” is the new caravan.

No one could have predicted…

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Bark louder, little dog.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

An almost top 10,000 blog!

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

Let there be snark.

‘Tragic: the Gathering’ was TBogg’s name for CPAC, back when Erick Son of Erick was promoting it for a bunch of grifters, wanna-bes, and young interns networking(ifyouknowwhatImean) with each other, and the ‘mainstream’ media mostly showed up to mock them.

What a roster at CPAC! Perhaps the most extraordinary collection of grifters, gropers, conspiracists, and apologists for authoritarianism that has ever been gathered together in one place, with the possible exception of when Benito Mussolini dined alone. https://t.co/Ao1reLB2mf

      What are the crime issues that have Congress’ panties tied up in knots? What actions has the DC City Council taken or not taken to cause Congress to feel the need to take time away from doing fuck-all about national problems and focus on meddling in city problems? What is “controversial” about…whatever it is? CNN can’t tell you!

      I just did a search for TBogg on Breitbart’s death, and it was during his time at FDL and those words no longer exist from what I found.

      Here’s a BJ thread authored by DougJ.

      And here’s a link authored by Zandar with 567 comments.

      And one from ABL

      And here is John Cole being quoted by The Week, and he was in high dudgeon!

      Insulting the dead is just classless: “I don’t see any purpose in getting my jollies trashing” Breitbart, says John Cole at Balloon Juice. I certainly didn’t agree with him politically, but at a time like this, I’m just “really sad for his family.” It’s true that “Breitbart himself didn’t feel constrained by any similar notions of restraint or respect for others,” but we should all try to be better than that, and exhibit a “basic level of decency….”

      @HumboldtBlue: both were hounded out of here by racists, as was ABL.  ABL and Zandar are still on twitter (at least as of yesterday).

      Not quite fair. Mr. White’s posts fairly quickly degenerated into nothing more than a brief blurb promoting a link to his own webby place.

      @NotMax: true, but he got a lot of shit about his race too, or so I’ve heard. Mostly all of the harassment to all of them was in email, IIRC, and vile. Not all lurkers were warm fuzzy kindly folks.

      @lowtechcyclist: some changed their names, more (well, me anyway) were spent by earlier, longer threads on the topic.

      @HeartlandLiberal: I got the same notice.  I came to the comments hoping someone would tell me what it shows.

      It was public earlier, I guess they took it down because it was getting too much notice.

      SECDEE!

      Heh.

      HTH!

      Cheers,

      @Urza: @Frankensteinbeck:

      Bloody Bill was (until very recently) on the board of the Manhattan Institute, home of the monster Christopher Rufo.

      Bloody Bill is not on our side.

      But I just checked, and he’s no longer listed on the MI board. Interesting. So maybe he’s slowly learning (or maybe they kicked him out)??

      Cheers,
      Scott.

      @Goku (aka Amerikan Baka): No idea why Elon James White left here, but it might be related to the fact that his name is mud in a lot of circles these days; indeed, he left Twitter long before the current debacle w/Musk.

      To sum up, he indirectly insulted a lot of Black Women activists and had people who worked for him calling him out publicly for underpaying them. I can’t find a lot of direct links but I recall me pulling away from his work after some tales; I think even Imani Gandy called him out.

      @Another Scott:  You have to wonder exactly when Bloody Bill realized the leopards were eating his face and “It’s not a problem until it’s MY problem” took effect. He was happy to consort with fascists when he was helping choose the targets of the cruelty and oppression.​
