I am sure that we have all heard about ACTA to some extent, whether it’s now, nearing crisis point, or before, going as far as two or three years back, when only a very few people paid any attention or tried protesting.
This is not going to be a dense, heavy post about the technicalities. This is going to be a post of anger and upset, because I...

Cissexist bigot calls for a boycott of Girl Scout cookies, since the Girl Scouts include *all* girls, whether cisgender or not. I say, we have a Girl Scout buy-out instead, where we buy ALL the cookies to show our support for Girl Scouts of the USA’s inclusiveness.

Santorum is not just the butt (pun intended) of a deservingly dirty joke; he has long been ahead of the curve when it comes to bashing gay people for political gain. He is the poster...

Mitt Romney: Defending Gaffes With Lies
liberalsarecool:
So Mitt’s “I like to fire people” was about health insurance and not his days of pillaging at Bain. Romney’s not being at all fair in the way he’s defended himself. He told reporters he was only talking about defending consumers from the supposed tyranny of the Affordable Care Act – and he lied about what it does.
