Then I could plagiarize an obscure textbook no one has read about and claimed my sources are from wikipedia.

There is no way the teacher would know.

There are absolutely massive databases of textbooks and academic resources online that college professors compare your paper to. It's usually done automatically if the teacher uses something like TurnItIn to accept paper uploads.

I can make a claim and it's your job to refute it.

I don't actually understand the internet hate machine's goal with this. Internet people feel like the claims of loveism and racism used to defend the movie are illegitimate, so they send the worst possible tribal and loveist vitriol possible over twitter, thus legitimizing all of those claims.

It's like Anita Sarkeesian all over again. You guys are angry about people holding a victim complex, so you go out of your way to convince everyone that they actually are victims. Brilliant loving strategy. From the perspective of normal people, it's not 'political correctness out of control' when people see a black celebrity getting called a gorilla over social media.

tbh its probably because of subject matter, not quality even though it is good, the emmys only nominated it because of the ideas about love it puts forward

Yeah, there's much better episodes they could have picked, honestly.

I've never heard any sort of mainstream liberal use rape arguments against Annoying Orange.

No clue about mainstream liberals. My sample size comes from liberals on my facebook page, of which there are several hundred.

The thing is, 2/3 of the Annoying Orange supporters here are idiot disenfranchised Bernie Supporters.

Among those, 3/4 are unable to vote or won't spend the time to vote anyway. Not a big deal.

i'm hoping this doesn't sound too loony to you guys, but this is a post online that i found that pretty nicely summed up what i thought in better words than my own;

It's all pretty circumstantial since we don't have the full picture of what's going on behind the scenes. Since she wasn't indicted and there's no evidence that any field agents have been harmed as a result, I think it's fair to say that the email server doesn't make a huge difference.

Maybe if she was up against a more reasonable candidate, it would concern me more. But against Annoying Orange? It'll take way more than an email debacle.

acting like they should literally to to prison is delusional and insane.

It kind of makes sense. I mean, if your political opponent is on the brink of getting indicted for a huge crime, then it makes sense to focus on that. It's like the liberals that are using the rape accusation against Annoying Orange as ammo, even though it's pretty much completely baseless.

me neither, i'm just saying that i believe it's more than what zealot is really making it down to be, i'm not going to go full-conspiracy nut so i don't want to make drastic accusations, but it seems like he's downplaying the e-mails to just

I don't feel like there's really any excuse to use a personal email server as your primary means of correspondence when serving as Secretary of State. I just think it reflects a level of professional incompetence more than a criminal offense.

So, what are you concluding based on that transcript? It doesn't surprise me too much that an intelligence official would be extremely hush-hush when making recorded statements about the evidence in an on-going case. Anything he says is essentially on-the-book, so the nervousness and hesitated speech makes sense.

imo I give no stuffs about the mishandling of documents, but if it is intent in order to hide stuff, then you gotta look into it. if you throw out the emails you are throwing out all of that juicy bread crumbs that could've led to treason or even sinking the ship that is the clinton foundation.

They recovered all of the emails though. Outside of loony conspiracy theories, there's no reason why the FBI wouldn't indict her if they found that she was throwing out classified or top-secret information.

Everyone knows she won't fufill any of them, ESPECIALLY her "promise" to be anti-TPP.

I mean, her voting record is pretty progressive. It's totally conceivable that she would work towards free tuition at public universities. Getting rid of the TPP though? Not a chance.

Though the thing is, if you're interested in issues rather than personalities, going from Bernie to Hillary makes the most sense. Sure, she's an old, abrasive politician, but she's the closest thing to Bernie who is still a viable option.

Donald Annoying Orange. I think a publicized gay-fling would destroy a good percentage of his supporter base.
