Darryl R Scott<p>I didn't know pouring water 💦 on someone's head was an offense punishable by death. </p><p>Sorry. I forgot.

Darryl R Scott<p>In functional civilizations, transformative societal changes are always pragmatic and incremental. I think progressive purity ponies live in a privileged world that can afford to pontificate about abstract utopias that are, ultimately, unattainable.</p>

Darryl R Scott<p>Huh. </p><p>The latest target of the GOP's War on Women is "recreational sex". </p><p>It gets them angrier than seeing that castrating slut Taylor Swift drinking a Bud Light while driving a BYD to a Bible-burning ceremony at a BLM protest.</p><p><a href="https://aninjusticemag.com/the-gop-won-the-abortion-battle-but-lost-the-war-3c8532da274f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">aninjusticemag.com/the-gop-won</span><span class="invisible">-the-abortion-battle-but-lost-the-war-3c8532da274f</span></a></p>
Darryl R Scott<p>ABC News: “Philosopher and presidential Green Party candidate Cornel West currently owes more than half a million dollars between unpaid taxes and unpaid child support, according to tax records."</p><p>Cornel West's presidential campaign is just another grifting operation. Sad.</p>
Darryl R Scott<p>Carlos Santana just outed himself as a transphobic nutjob. (sigh)</p>

Darryl R Scott<p>The new campaign manager for Meatball Ron has advice for the besieged presidential candidate:</p><p>The strategy memo also highlights one of Mr. DeSantis’s long-running political vulnerabilities, his reputation for awkwardness or aloofness on the campaign trail, by suggesting that he “invoke a personal anecdote story about family, kids, Casey, showing emotion.”</p>

Darryl R Scott<p>It's going to be interesting to see if America has the collective will to go against historical and cultural precedent and put a rich white man in jail.</p>
