Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

Just curious about leftist ideology,
You all want "equality" and you all want "diversity".
Equality=everyone is the same
Diversity=everyone is different
This does not make sense. Help a brother out.

Doug- no words about the late lamented Gretsch owned and loved by Malcolm Young? Or do I have the wrong guitar fancier?
For the record I know nada about guitars and couldn't tell one from another, especially if wingnuts lives depended on it. Bwahahahahahahahahahaha! Stoopid fucking wingnuts.
Well Mike, you can start your guitar collection by buying the Malcolm Young Gretsch for only $10,000. Or you could get one for your buddy the X man.
The tears of the poor are so delicious- my precious
RCP polling average for Alabama Senate race:
Doug Jones is now neck-and-neck with Roy "Underage Is The Right Age" Moore.
Moore's lead has completely vanished.
Might buy it for new great grandgirlie, but she is only 3 months old. If I can scrape up 10 grand its yours, okay?
Couple days before Franken was accused of whatever, two wingnuts, Roger Stone and a booger from info whores predicted Franken would have his own sexual harassment charges soon.
It is also being reported that Tweeden was doing her share of unwanted touching during the shows. There is a video of the show so you can watch if you want. I am not posting it.
If you see one from dead Breitbart or O'Keefe don't bother with it as it will be heavily edited.
"This does not make sense. Help a brother out."
Sure thing. Diversity is when there are people with a lot of different backgrounds participating, and equality is when they are all treated the same by the government and the society at large.
And Mike, no I don't know anything about Malcolm's guitar, but I wasn't surprised by his passing due to an interview I read with him years ago where the interviewer asked if he minded living in Angus' shadow playing rhythm to his lead. Malcolm answered that no, he wouldn't want to be the lead guitarist as it would interfere with his drinking.

In addition to serving as the captain of the good ship AC/DC, he was also its chief architect and mechanic, tinkering with riffs and songs as tirelessly as he tinkered with his 1963 Gretsch Jet Firebird, which underwent countless modifications as he strove to unleash the ultimate guitar tone. "
From Rolling Stone article today.
Not to get sappy, but Mel Tillis has left the building today.

- WRONG! WRONG!! WRONG!!!

- Look at a dictionary and read the CONSTITUTION, for pete-fricking-sakes!!! Since I know those are considered anathema, here are the excerpts, with the key points already highlighted, salient to the correction of your ERROR:
First, since Google is evidently too difficult to use:
e·qual·i·ty
əˈkwälədē/
noun: equality
"the state of being equal, especially in status, rights, and opportunities."
synonyms: fairness, equal rights, equal opportunities, equity, egalitarianism; impartiality, evenhandedness;
justice
"we promote equality for women"
Mathematics
"a symbolic expression of the fact that two quantities are equal; an equation.
- Stop conflating mathematical quantities with citizens' Constitutional civil rights
Speaking of the Constitution, The most relevant
Article V (Article 5 - Mode of Amendment)
"The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided [...] that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate."
Article XIV
"1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Article XV (Equal right to vote)
"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged {...} "
- STOP conflating things which are unrelated, and stop fabricating relatedness where none exists =:-p
"Ralph Shortey, former Oklahoma state senator and a county campaign coordinator for President Donald Trump’s campaign last year, will plead guilty to a child sex trafficking offense for soliciting sex from a 17-year-old boy in March.
In exchange for his guilty plea, government prosecutors have agreed to drop three counts of child pornography against him."
Buggering children is a Republican family value.
And a doctrine of the Catholic church.

Deal😂
@Doug in Oakland
- Well sure! After all, the Bible is dead-silent when it comes to condemning sexual abuse of children, regardless of whether the child has an "outsie" or an "insie" - Leviticus only says that a man should not lie with another man, however, Genesis in forms us that, at the age of 16, a male is "not yet a man".
-
- As far as I've been able to find, about all it says is that, if a man rapes a girl, he has to marry her. And back then in the Old Testament days, polygamy was the rule, so...

- Welcome to "Biblical Law" =:-P

@White old fart and Dougster...
You never came close answering my question. Don't copy and paste like most of the content here. Answer from your heart, how do you feel about it?

You never came close answering my question.
- Given that so many questions are asked by people using "anonymous" as an "identifier", expecting people to read your mind as to which question you asked is silly.
- I *did* answer a question regarding the difference between equality, and being identical. If someone is incapable of comprehending the information, that's in no way the same thing ((a.k.a. 'identical')) as the difference not being addressed and explained.
- Additionally, if that's the question "you" ((anonymous number umpety-ump)) had asked, then your demand that actual/real meanings be ignored in favor of "feeeeeeelings"is inane, trivial, weak-minded, insipid, and not worth my time, especially given that the very fact I answered it, together with the way in which I answered it, should make my "feelings", irrelevant though they be to the facts, completely obvious to anyone who has a bit more sense than Gawd gave a rutabaga.

Woo-oo-oo! Woo-o-o-o-o-o-!See Baron, Daddy can make it sound like the train that'll take us to Leavenworth.
