Last night I watched Kerry spew off lie after lie about the situation in Aleppo in a press conference. I am having trouble finding the entire press conference video (it was on twitter last night) without spin.

The Most Consequential Debate In Human History
Submitted by joe shikspack on Mon, 09/12/2016 - 4:57pm... at least you'd think so for all the heated discussion it has spawned.
Sigh. Once there was a dream of a site where a community of smart, kind and decent people gathered to organize and make change.
I've been reading through the various threads from Sunday this morning debating whether the word "bitch" should be verboten on this site. One side of the debate is adamant that its use is hurtful and sexist. The other side of the debate is adamant that it is their "right" to use it, regardless of whether it offends people.
Both sides expect the site moderation to side with them and enforce their rights.

Report from TOP
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Sun, 04/03/2016 - 8:29amI just visited DK (aka TOP) just to see what is going on and posting a few comments. The daily diary count is diminished--no surprise there. I am happy to report that many Berniecrats have so far escaped the dreaded ban hammer, including Tom P, Liepar Destin, delphine, LoneStarMike and others. I dwell on this topic briefly because some of the ongoing diaries there are very openly proBernie, but now of course far outweighed by proHRC stuff.
Open Thread - Wed. March 30, 2016 - Self-Censorship Edition
Submitted by gulfgal98 on Wed, 03/30/2016 - 7:00amThe worst evil is - and that's the product of censorship - is the self-censorship, because that twists spines, that destroys my character because I have to think something else and say something else, I have to always control myself. - Milos Forman
