More than 150 people have been killed in riots in Ethiopia in recent days. Many by security forces. Why isn't their outrage around the globe about this? I looked at the Black Lives Matter twitter account and couldn't find a single word about it. Nothing on Raz Simone's twitter feed either.
Is it because white people aren't doing the killing? They can't blame long-dead white people either as Ethiopia was never colonised by Europeans.
However, I also read that obesity levels have been rising in Ethiopia for several decades. I'm pretty sure that there's a white guy we can pin this on.

Freedom is not a state. It is an act. It is not some enchanted garden perched high on a distant plateau.. Freedom is a continuous action we all must take, and each generation must do its part to create an even more fair, more just society.-John Lewis
Halle Berry isn't allowed to pretend to be a woman who is pretending she has a penis.
Only a woman who is pretending she has a penis is allowed to pretend she is a woman who is pretending she has a penis.
That makes sense.

It really is hard to get more pre-apocalyptic than this.

It seems that 226 "offensive" words are going to be banned from Scrabble.
The offending words include fatso, lesbo, Jew, and baldy. There are even some words that I've never heard of before, such as haole and culchie.
Some Scrabble players are opposed to the move, saying that banning words is a "slippery slope". I'm sure at least one of those words is on the list.

You only had to overcome the leadership of Adolph Hitler, 80 years ago. Yep, we are more fucked up than a box of fishing worms over here.

The same way Trump made friends with that Iranian war criminal?
That's what is so retarded about the majority of discussions involving American politics. Supporters of one party condemn an act of the other, an act for which they previously praised their own party.

It’s weird to suggest Obama made friends with Rouhani. He spoke to him once on the phone and never met him. He helped engineer a deal with Iran that the entire western democratic world agreed with and endorsed.
What deals has Trump successfully concluded with Putin and Kim Jong Un. Those leaders have learned that all they have to do is praise the insecure fool and they can treat him with contempt elsewhere.
