    Where I’m from people use it frequently, but never about disabled people. They just mean stupid. In that capacity I agree, it’s literally the same on every level as idiot, moron, imbecile, feeble-minded, dumb, etc.

    If someone uses the word to refer to a mentally handicapped or disabled person, we’re gonna fight. If you call attacking Iran retarded, I agree wholeheartedly.



  • This. The UN isn’t for “doing things”. Its sole purpose is to provide an established avenue for diplomacy. It is a monumental achievement in human history and is critically important especially in tense times like this, for no other reason than enabling interstate dialogue. It isn’t meant to be on anyone’s side as an organization, it’s meant to bring everyone to the table to encourage diplomacy to prevent war.










  • Ya fr I’ve been going to the movies at least 5-6 times a year for 30 years and I can only recall one time that someone was disruptive enough to say something, and an usher dealt with it before I did. I know it does happen, but it’s not nearly as ubiquitous as memes will make it seem.

















  • Jill Stein is a Russian asset or at the very least a shill, and you’re the idiot that fell for it and voted for her.

    “Cornel West, he’s one of my favorite candidates. Cornel West and I like her also, Jill Stein, I like her very much. You know why? She takes 100% from them.” - DJT

    Stein recorded a video from Red Square, in which she talked about “the need to rein in American exceptionalism” and replace “a U.S. policy based on domination.” Which, she’s not wrong, but she wasn’t saying it for the right reasons (hint hint red square).

    And then there’s her position on Ukraine which is straight from the mouth of Putin and Lavrov.

    “Russia’s invasion was a provoked response to the bigger, more murderous and illegal game plan of US empire… In 2014 the US backed a coup in Ukraine led by far-right insurrectionists. The installation of the new government was a giant step towards the goal of adding Ukraine to NATO - and putting hostile bases and nuclear-capable missiles right on Russia’s border.” – Jill Stein (Feb. 24, 2022)

    Then theres, you know, her having dinner with Putin. In Moscow. For… Reasons?

    But ya, blame everyone else instead of taking some personal responsibility for being a fucking moron.



  • I’m not a “vote blue no matter who” person and nobody is advocating that. I am talking about one election in which there was a specific choice and you made a bad one. In the future, I hope we have better choices, and I’ll do whatever I can to advocate for candidates who want to fundamentally restructure our systems.

    And yes Jill Stein is a Russian asset or at the very least a shill.
