It's time for these flyweights to go: If there were such a thing as horrible people, they would be horrible people.
We don't believe in the concept of horrible people. If we did, that's who they'd be.
At this site, we prefer to regard them as people people. Still and all, it's long past time for these corporate flyweights to go.
It's time for these horrible flyweights to go. In a brief day away from the search, we'll examine that topic tomorrow.
Watching them makes you smarter. It's just that simple.
ReplyDeleteThat explains Somerby, then.
DeleteNice bite size summary of Bob’s ghastly hypocrisy. I can name call without name calling, how CLEVER I am!!
ReplyDeleteObviously, Bob doesn’t like the Times story suggesting Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he stole the documents. This makes Bob, given his previous writings on Trump’s accountability, look very, very dumb.
I’m waiting for somebody to go into detail about the payoff to the Nixon estate meaning, to Trump, he could just take whatever he wanted. He had that completely wrong and straightening it out is another reason Trump should be indicted.
Lock him up!
DeletePlease, do it quick.
DeleteI would imagine that all the horrible people, whover they are, will simply just go at the same time that the "evil" second amendment is repealed.
ReplyDeleteAre you suggesting that you prefer that the horrible people be shot by all those gun owners? What do you think the right means when it talks about "second ammendment solutions"?
Delete"At this site, we prefer to regard them as people people."
ReplyDeleteThis is because Somerby considers ALL people as horrible people. He has no high opinion of humanity, as he says over and over. Himself excepted, obviously, since there has to be someone with the judgment to assess the failings of others and recognize how horrible everyone is.
It is time for Somerby to go. He has nothing to say to anyone worth reading. Better would be for Somerby to explore with a shrink why he hates cable news hosts, children with improved reading scores, women, and the left. But why bother? If he just sits around under his pear tree, winter will come and he can drift off on an ice floe. But then the RNC or Russia or deep pocketed dark money Republicans would stop sending checks and his cat might starve. Time to get up and write another empty article about NAEP scores...
Except, if you are a horrible Republican you get to claim Disordered Status.

ReplyDeleteTrump's people (Steve Bannon et al.) are speculating that DeSantis may be on the autism spectrum, which has autism advocates worrying that a slew of myths and stereotypes will go mainstream, affecting people who have such a diagnosis. This is a mirror image of the approach Somerby has taken, labeling Trump a sociopath, Tucker Carlson a disturbed child, and freely applying the labels "crazy" and "mentally ill" to various people. Maybe if someone else explains why this is wrong to do, Somerby might listen:
ReplyDelete"Still, if ableism is eternal, the specifics of tossing around autism-spectrum diagnoses says something about our moment. Time was when the number of people who might witness, say, an uncomfortable candidate foray into a New Hampshire diner would be limited to the diner’s patrons and the few hangers-on in the press pool. Folks at home would maybe see the 10-second clip spliced into an evening news story. Nowadays, we can stream the whole thing in real-time. After a while it creates a kind of intimacy, allowing all sorts of folks watching from their laptops to venture forth with diagnoses for conditions ranging from the dermatological to the gerontological to the neurological — and then share them with the world.
The goofy speculation is no longer limited to the hacks in the media van.
Trump’s presidency famously saw an explosion of such distant diagnoses as detractors labeled the 45th president a sociopath or as suffering from a narcissistic personality disorder, to the displeasure of psychiatric professional associations. The difference, though, is that most people would agree those labels are bad and even disqualifying. There is no organized demographic of sociopaths or narcissists trying to push back against discrimination and stereotypes the way there now is in the autism community."

Ron DeSantis is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known in my life.
ReplyDeleteI’m beginning to suspect the “search” is turning up goose egg.
ReplyDeleteComcast, are u listening?
ReplyDeleteI catch Morning Joe sometimes because someone else in the house likes it. Everyone on the show is a privileged prep-school brat and corporate whore making motions that look like a real job somehow, filling airtime with blather and banter. It actually is interesting how Joe went from being a Gingrich Republican to a bleeding-heart liberal, "Think of the transgender kids!".
ReplyDeleteHey, why not switch over to the good people at Fox and Friends? Perhaps the lunatic degenerate the right put in charge of the West Will phone in for a tough grilling.
DeleteNothing worse than sticking up for transgender kids, unless it’s praising the progress in Mississippi’s reading scores. Now that was a bridge too far.
DeleteHi.

ReplyDeleteTrump and DeSantis are on my list of horrible people.
ReplyDeleteGive ‘em a decade or so.
DeleteYou’ll love them like they’re the Cheneys.
I guess that's because your leaders keep getting more horrible?
DeleteAnd you will hate them because they balked at enacting the “being a liberal is a capital crime” law.
DeleteAnonymouse10:19am, absolutely.
DeleteIf Mike Pence had a chance he’d be “More horrible than Trump.”
Dick Cheney is horrible. Liz is merely bad.
DeletePence doesn’t have a chance. He isn’t horrible enough for the MAGA primary voters.
DeleteAnonymouse 10:19am, I don’t hate tthe Cheneys or anonymices.
DeleteEven though you both argue that we must support your druthers or we are against America.
Anonymouse 10:28am, exactly. To be “More horrible than Trump” you merely have to win.
DeleteI don't know how you can be more horrible than Trump. Burn down the U.S. Capitol? But I am sure you would be thrilled to find out.
DeleteCecelia, please quote any anonmous commenter here who has said that those who don't agree with them are "against America."
DeleteThis is silly, even for you Cecelia. People on the left do not "love" the Cheneys. We tend to respect Liz Cheney for placing truth ahead of her career, telling the truth about 1/6 and for serving her country on the 1/6 Committee, but no one likes Dick Cheney any better now than back in the day.
DeleteAnonymouse12:27, Trump was the GOP nominee. Almost half the country voted on Trump and look at the insults anonymices have leveled against them just today.
DeleteLiberals (like me) don’t love Liz Chaney and certainly not Dick. We would give her credit for not seconding Tucker Carlson’s account of Jan 6 like many Republicans. That is, She’s not a venal fruitcake bent on denying basic reality. It’s your standards, Cecelia, that force us to credit such basic honesty and personal responsibility.
DeleteAccording to Republicans, Liz Cheney is a traitor. Basics such as honesty and personal responsibility are alien concepts to them.
DeleteAnonymouse 4:43pm, you give Cheney “credit” because she’s useful to you.
DeleteYou don’t give Tucker any credit because he is not useful to you.
That wouldn't seem so starkly disingenuous as to the treatment of contrarian politicians and political professionals if it wasn’t your take as well on everyone from a grocery clerk in a MAGA hat to Ron DeSantis.
Anonymouse 5:35pm, you and the coven are here daily in order to tar and feather a freaking blogger as being a bonafide traitor to the country because he doesn’t sing your tune line-by-line.
DeleteYou’d crucify a liberal version of Lynn Cheney.
So far, liberals have not crucified the Dems on the 1/6 Committee.
Deletethanks for proving my point, Cecelia. Telling the truth is a profile in courage with your party.
Deleteand as far as i can tell, the commentors here are refuting TDH with thoughtful commentary, nobody gives enough shits about TDH to want to tar and feather him
Anonymouse 6:00pm, why would they? They were useful.
DeleteAnonymouse 6:02pm, oh, we can tell that you don’t give a shit about Somerby and his blog.
DeleteAnonymouse 6:02pm, You’re only here daily writing fifteen paragraphs about him.
DeleteNot everyone using the nym anonymous is the same person. You’ve been told that before. Don’t you have anything better to do than troll here on a Sat night?
DeleteAnonymouse 6:32pm, thanks for proving my point by implying that this is your turf.
DeleteParanoid asshole.
DeleteAnonymouse 11:24pm, protest all you wish, on this blog you are the ubiquitous paranoid asshole.
DeleteCongratulations.
Vulgar insults lower the level of this blog.
DeleteCecelia lowers the level of this blog.
DeleteCecelia might not be a robot.
DeleteSomerby’s impotent calls for the firing of various pundits is routinely embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteIf a transgender person asked my advice, I’d say no gender-affirming care. But I’ve never been asked.
ReplyDeleteThat's because it is none of your business.
DeleteSo I don’t bother them.
