I think about this, too. The bloodlust that gets posted here sometimes is very offputting. Advocates for killing all chuds post-revolution don't make me feel comfortable with the idea of building communism shoulder to shoulder with them.

Yeah Tony Stark decides to stop selling weapons to the government (but immediately makes exceptions for War Machine), but then flies to Afghanistan and personally murders a bunch of nameless bad guys. But the audience knows it's good that he flew there to do murders because they take time out of being murdered to act reprehensible while he's doing it.

Imagine if someone had told you in 2016 that Shoe0nhead would criticise Mother Jones from the left, while Mother Jones is criticising Yglesias from the right.

No point reading any Mother Jones unless the editorial team is completely replaced. "Means Testing Really Isn't So Bad"

Wait, are we supposed to be happy that they "saved" the golf course? Fuck you, public parks are actually good, unlike stupid golf, which, legally, should only exist in Scotland.
