Can we stop all the hating on each other here?
Am I the only one that thinks there is a lot of hating that goes on here? I'm not talking about vigorous debate or strong feeling about subjects. I'm referring to the slander that goes on frequently. It gets old, doesn't it? Or am I just being to "sensitive"? Peace ya'll.

Hillary Clinton
From Sky News (I know this is from the UK, but I have no idea if they are liberal or conservative) really excellent report, they interviewed lots of people on both sides, seems like pretty even coverage, really sad that this was the best the left could offer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WywjHtIzNVU&t=1s

Honest question: Eddie Vedder has supported both Ralph Nader & Bernie Sanders
So why all the harsh feeling towards Progressives? We are only trying to make the world a better place, and care about our fellow humans over the corporations.

Small yet profound experience I had re: the importance of diversity in entertainment
So lately Hollywood has been making a push to make more diverse movies, and of course there has been a strong backlash towards this at times, some backlash being more valid than others. I have a friend that is a die hard Star Wars fan that thinks that they “spit in the fans’ faces by trying to push their feminazi agenda”…

Joe Rogan Show w/Jimmy Dore great show with lots of good political nuggets
It's hard to find Democrats who actually have the guts to be honest about their Party, this is a great show, about half the show is political. I can't be the only Democrat who can support a Bernie Sanders & not support & be critical of a Hillary Clinton, sadly we get treated like trash by many so called "Democrats", sorry…

I don't believe in God
I get it, I live in the bible belt. But when people ask me about God or heaven and hell and I tell them, they look at me like I just murdered their hunting dog. People seem to have a more receptive reaction to people that come out as gay rather than say you don't believe in god. The most common question I get asked…
