Love you Driftglass (and BlueGal), but sometimes letting us melanated folks have a seat at your table is necessary too. <i>That is said with love.</i> (Note: NSFW language at the link)<br /><br />http://verysmartbrothas.com/the-10-worst-sentences-in-david-brookss-the-uses-of-patriotism-ranked-from-this-is-fucking-stupid-to-this-dude-is-on-crack/USMA MULEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17481283610394029975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-55371320949427681672016-09-16T17:43:33.955-05:002016-09-16T17:43:33.955-05:00"Generally after the title I have a good idea..."Generally after the title I have a good idea where it will all go horribly wrong."<br /><br />I'll usually assume the headline writer is gamely trying.

As many of us have said, DFB decries the louche debasement of Trump's AltRight fanboyz 'n grrlz, but duly noted how DFB easily positions himself to mightily suck up to white supremacist power, whilst ever punching down on - and what's almost worst, lecturing - the darkly-hued undeserving, ungrateful, worthless others.<br /><br />It's cringe-worthy being white these days.RUKiddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14057702539722165035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-13215582057600568032016-09-16T17:18:12.969-05:002016-09-16T17:18:12.969-05:00Adam Johnson at FAIR has a good one, too.
