Damn those wayfair employees are cruel. No furniture for you! Poor migrant kids 

Met a few Wayfair employees at an AI conference over the past few days - absurdly fascinating company from a data perspective, and very kind (and brilliant) people. I don't understand the cause for protest though - had Wayfair not delivered this furniture, it'd have been sourced elsewhere. Or, considering the Trump administration, maybe they just wouldn't have equipped the place with furniture at all. 

That's a pretty poor argument. The Nazis would have just taken their business elsewhere.

If it was a company I worked for I wouldn't want any part of that travesty either. Plus it brings more attention to this issue, which can only be a good thing.

So your company doesn’t do anything you don’t agree with? 

I own my company, so no. But if I worked for a company that did business with a government or another company involved in separating kids from their parents and holding them in squalor you bet I would speak up. You wouldn't?

Especially when that company is so directly involved in profiting from the misery.

I don’t think selling furniture to a border shelter/camp is really all that bad.  I guess I’m confused, complain about the conditions and boycott the conditions improving? 

To each their own, but it seems pretty stupid to me. 

If you think of furniture as a necessity for them to operate, then selling furniture to them can be seen as contributing to enabling the system when you had a choice of not doing so.

So if they don’t sell them furniture than no one shows up at the border??? Who knew. Problem solved. Don’t need a wall just need no furniture!

Yes, and I think it might cure cancer too.

And if it doesn't do those things, everyone should throw in the towel and do nothing at all about anything. That's the spirit, why try and change anything.

Yup cause shipping a bed means you aren’t trying to change anything. Mkay.

That’s the spirit walk out in your job that would have provided migrants a bed! Nicely done! 

Agreed- silliness.  Cry about the conditions but when there’s comfort to be given to them, boycott it!

Says the guy who laughs about a drowned migrant family. Keep the bar high.

Lmao where’s the beating a dead horse emoji or banging your head on a wall
emoji when you need it?!  I’m not laughing at the horror of the victims, I’m laughing at the Don playing through!
jeeezus

I don't think you know how political cartoons work. Or at least this one in particular, you just didn't get it. 

It’s subjective.  I took it the way I took it.  It’s a cartoon.  Get a sense of humor.  The dude had a bubble over his head asking if he could play through.  That’s funny to me and I laughed when I saw it.  The same way I laughed when I read that Trump said he was “going to save the free world” the other day before he boarded Air Force 1.  It’s hilarious because it’s ridiculous. Sorry you were offended, I wasn’t meaning to be a dick, I thought it was funny.

I get it, you took it the way you took it. I'm not offended in the least.

But I'm 100% sure the artist did not intend on making the cartoon funny. 

It reminds me of this one...



or this one which Canadians will remember.



They aren't always meant to be funny.

I know. Holy fuck.  Let’s just move on, so this thread doesn’t get closed and your political cartoon lesson interrupted.

At least you didn’t dispute that you’re a blind Baffoon supporter 

I won’t dispute that I support him.  Why should I? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I don’t like how he does president but I like what he’s doing as prez 

lol yep blind 

I wouldn’t insult you based on your vote or your beliefs, I’m comfortable
knowing people have free will.  Sorry to see you don’t understand different strokes for different folks.

How many more women would have to come forward with credible assault allegations before you would drop your support of him?

“If one person in your life accused you of pooping in their kitchen sink, I could be persuaded to believe that that is a lie. But if over the course of the 73 years of your life, 22 separate people came forward with detailed accounts of times you had pooped in their kitchen sinks, I’m going to start to think you’re a sink pooper."

-Colbert

It’s not how many, it’s more like evidence, to
me.  It’s a tough situation, but with 2 years of crying wolf about everything from toilet paper and his comb over to his Cheeto face it kinda falls on deaf ears and it’s harder to take seriously.  I certainly think it’s possible given his history but in an age where people are paid to start fights dressed as trump supporters and paid to say all kinds of things, I’ll wait for the rape kit and dna samples before I jump to any conclusion- on allegations against either side. 

Find me one woman who decided to keep her soiled underwear after she was raped as a souvenir (I'm sorry for even writing that, it feels so distasteful). If you're willing to ignore mountains of circumstantial evidence and only admit it into your thought process if you see irrefutable proof of rape, and assume innocence until that point, then you have absolutely jumped to a conclusion, which is at odds with basic common sense. 

Um that’s gross.  And cool, who needs evidence anyway?! Evidence shmevidence! It’s  so dumb anyway with all those silly science things.  Kinda weird how science and facts as you guys always chant isn’t necessary when it doesn’t suit your case.

It's not asking rape victims to do a rape kit right after a rape that is the problem. That absolutely should be done, and authorities should sensitively try to convince all rape victims to do that. The issue is that so many rape victims are not even able to report within the period of time when a rape kit could be done. There are all kinds of really good reasons why women don't report rapes - the majority of victims do not. RoleModelsInBlood31 apparently would like the majority of rapists to get off scott free, and it's all the rape victims' faults. He couldn't care less, I suppose, about a ton of rapists running free despite plenty of believable reasons not to. He completely ignores all the well-researched reasons why demanding hard cold DNA evidence and whatnot 100% of the time doesn't work for sex crimes. He doesn't fucking care why it doesn't, which necessarily means he doesn't actually care about rape victims - he will default to them being liars if there isn't scientific proof of the crimes committed against them.

Unpainted Arizona!

hopefully no one has to boycott apples or the such 

This is very chadwickian., and amid the clusterfuckery of some comments related to their or others' expectations of women who've been RAPED, gave me a smile.

(and thank you to those who get it)
