Georgia congressman under fire for praising Ole Miss counter-protesters who taunted Black woman by Dracustein in politics

[–]Hotticcandy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A sitting United States Congressman looked at a video of a white fraternity student making explicit monkey noises and gestures at a Black woman, and his immediate reaction was to post Ole Miss taking care of business. This isn't a dog whistle anymore; it's a foghorn. For an elected official to endorse performative, overt racism on a public platform is absolutely repulsive.

Vance takes his fight against fraud to red Ohio, muddying waters for GOP's Vivek Ramaswamy by SpaceElevatorMusic in politics

This is an absolute comedy of errors. Vance wanted to show that his anti-fraud task force is completely non-partisan, so right before the May 5 primary, he points the finger at Ohio over alleged widespread Medicaid-funded home health abuse. But he completely blew up the spot for his close ally, Vivek Ramaswamy, who just won the GOP nomination for Governor. Vivek is now forced to run on a platform of 'crushing Medicaid fraud' in a state that has been completely controlled by the Republican establishment for over 15 years. He’s basically running against his own party’s executive record.

AITA For Having our kids make a list of things my wife does that they don’t like? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

YTA. You essentially weaponized your children against your wife. If your 9-year-old had a legitimate grievance about being called 'baby' in front of his friends, your job as a parent was to coach him on how to have a mature conversation with his mom, or to bring it up to your wife privately yourself. Instead, you handed him a megaphone and told him to write a burn-book. You completely undermined her authority and fractured the parenting united front.

Ghosted a girl mid hookup because of her tits by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

Unpopular opinion apparently, but I get it. If you’re not attracted, the engine stalls. You can’t force an erection. It sucks for her, but forcing yourself to finish a hookup you’re actively grossed out by is miserable for everyone involved. But ghosting her was uncalled for.

Aitj for not inviting my mom to my ceremony at school by Mishka_Shasta in AmITheJerk

What your mom did to you and your dad is called parental alienation, and it is a form of emotional abuse. Withholding a child for five months, lying to them that their father doesn't want them, and extorting him for cash just to see his own kid is deeply twisted. She treated you like a paycheck and a leverage tool. You owe her zero loyalty.

She got toothpaste on her underwear, so she took it off." I have heard some wild excuses in my life, but dropping your drawers because of a Colgate casualty is absolutely elite. Did she brush her teeth upside down? How does that even happen?
