The Hypocrisy of Calling Liberals Oversensitive
(01/09/17 10:35pm)
Let’s talk about Liberals — capital L — in the way people like Tomi Lahren and Bill O’Reilly refer to them. Perhaps the most common critique of Liberals is how overly sensitive they are, clamoring for political correctness and safe spaces. We’re familiar with Brown University’s backlash for having a ‘safe space’ full of coloring books and bubbles after a campus debate on rape culture, and conversely, the uproar following the University of Chicago’s decision to release an email saying they were not in favor of trigger warnings and safe spaces. But we’re not here to debate the validity of these safe spaces. We’re going to analyze the claim that conservatives keep going back to — that Liberals are awful because they are oversensitive — and refute it with one, big counterpoint: our current President- elect, Donald Trump.

Emails and their election impact
(11/01/16 11:00pm)
There’s more than enough chatter going on in the country about Hillary Clinton’s emails. Like Bernie Sanders said months ago, nobody wants to hear about these damn emails anymore. Even with the FBI re-opening the case in the wake of ex-congressman Anthony Weiner’s premature evacuation, voters seem to be over Clinton’s email fiasco. As FBI Director James B. Comey said, we agree that Clinton’s handling of the emails was irresponsible, but it was by no means illegal. Like Clinton, we’re confident her political enemies will, once again, be disappointed when the newest batch of emails really contains nothing controversial.
