        I was checking on reddit, found a story about Feinstein’s death, and apparently you’re not even allowed to say you’re indifferent to someone’s death from natural causes now.

                In September 2006, Stallman wrote, “I am skeptical of the claim that voluntarily [sic] pedophilia harms children. The arguments that it causes harm seem to be based on cases which aren’t voluntary, which are then stretched by parents who are horrified by the idea that their little baby is maturing.” … In September 2018, Stallman again attracted controversy when he wrote on his website, “However, it is normal for adults to be physically attracted to adolescents”, in a defense of convicted sex offender Cody Wilson. … In the thread, discussion had turned to deceased MIT professor Marvin Minsky, who was named by Virginia Giuffre as one of the people that Epstein had directed her to have sex with. Giuffre, a minor at the time, had been caught in Epstein’s underage sex trafficking ring. In response to a comment where one reply stated that Minsky “is accused of assaulting one of Epstein’s victims”, Stallman questioned whether the word “assault” was applicable in that case, arguing that “the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing.” …

      If I had the choice I’d rather we build something where no one like him would ever hold public office ever again, and him living in the 200 years. I don’t care about his miserable little life nor person. Fix the loopholes so the rest of us improves.

      He is and always had been a symptom of a deeper problem with American culture.

            Biden can talk coherently and on topic and make good points for 45 minutes straight, but if he stumbles over a couple words, right wing media will make a big deal about that and act like it’s all he said. Meanwhile, they just repeat “Biden so old, Biden senile” over and over again until it’s drummed into the right-wing brains thoroughly. It’s pretty annoying that their last president passed a dementia test and seemed to think it was an IQ test, bragged about how doctors could barely even believe how good he was at it… still voting for this guy… and then they insist “Biden doesn’t even know what room he’s in!!”.

                Yeah, just the fact that he’s biking at all is pretty good for his age. But just like his public speaking, they highlight the 1-2 times he screws up in a speech, repeat it endlessly, and ignore the rest.

      Trump’s taking the stage, ill prepared as always, when he stops for a few moments to read a CDC infographic on ways to sterilize surfaces. Then he just turns on his mouth and lets it run.

    Indeed, being seen as “too” smart can hurt you with the GOP base, which suspiciously eyes intelligence as a gateway drug to rationality.

    This is an epic quote. Succinct, biting, and true. When I was growing up, the left was demonized for putting feelings over facts, but now the shoe is in the other foot. “Don’t confuse us with facts,” is clearly the sentiment of the Trumpet base.

        Agreed. People should have a look at old videos of him in interviews. He could string coherent thoughts together.

        What’s really stunning is reading a speech transcript. When you listen all you hear is, “bla, bla, bla”. Reading it is a whole 'nother experience. Fragmented, incoherent, rambling, frightening.

      That still doesn’t preclude him from serving as President. Federal charges would have to end in conviction before he’s potentially elected or he’ll just pardon himself.
