You're right, it was 2015, but as a simple layman I was aware of Russian meddling by the time this dinner happened. So if Jill and the Green party weren't aware of how bad this would look, and how worthless an olive branch to Putin would be, then at the very least they're too incompetent to be worth a vote. Unfortunately I did not know about this gaffe by the time of the election and even voted for Stein in that election, which I still regret.

To draw votes away from the Democratic party nominee at the behest of her Russian donors. NBC News Link about the infamous dinner.

Great campaign image for them: "Do you want want to vote for fat Homelander or hot fey lady? The choice is obvious"

I made my wife look at it, then I had to go back because she noticed even more insanity. It just kept getting worse every time we went through the pictures.

This is the first time I've seen a "it just keeps getting worse" post and actually agreed. I went in n just expecting terrible siding, then the inside of the house, then the chairs, then the lights, then more chairs, the carpet, the exposed wiring, why are there chairs there?, it just kept escalating. Thank you for this.

I didn't even learn about the Haymarket bombing until I was thirty. It's like Armistice day became memorial day and no one is ever told that it was originally a day to reflect on the horrors of war and now it's all just olive drab hero worship. We are intentionally under educated in the US

Apparently this flag has been used recently by Drumpf's supporters, specifically those that think the election was stolen, and it was seen flying outside Alito's summer home.

Because the idea that there are vegans and vegetarians is an implied accusation of guilt to people that eat meat and animal products that are the direct result of animal suffering. Some people that don't eat animal products might be militant or preachy, but I've never met one. In fact I have only ever met the inverse, people that constantly berate people for being vegan or vegetarian. Having been one myself, I can say that for me and people I know it is the same reason religious people hate atheists; their existence implies that people that eat meat are wrong and therefore bad people. Studies have confirmed this. Here is an article from the BBC that goes over some of the studies.

Stop. Please. We can only get so erect.
