"Our city is an anarchist shit hole! How can we cut down on crime?"
"Don't enforce the laws and just let Antifa dipshits run wild in our streets!"
"We already do that. What else ya got?"
"Umm...I know! Let's just make all the shit they're doing legal, so we can stop pretending we actually care about the rule of law?"
"Godamnit, they/them! That's brilliant!"

Obama definitely ain't woke: thehill.com/homenews/campaign/528266-obama-you-lose-people-with-snappy-slogans-like-defund-the-policeAs a popular meme says, "no lies detected." A good chunk (if not the majority) of progressives seem to operate mainly off of emotion, giving little thought to how stupid/detrimental their little hot takes and slogans are. Frankly, if their platforms and ideas are ever to succeed (that ain't happening anytime soon), then they'll definitely need some cooler heads in their wing to tell the brats (DemoBrats) when to STFU, sit down or go to bed, and let the adults talk.

Can't wait to see AOC throw some shade Obama's way, like she did to Manchin:

OMG: The story: jezebel.com/hey-obama-some-people-actually-do-want-to-defund-the-1845789054From it: Clear and coherent? Please. Talk to one hundred people saying "defund the police" and you'll get 95 different ideas on what that means. Anyway, one of the responses to the tweet: That's a little too on the nose, isn't it? ETA: Hysterically, most of the responses to that tweet are criticizing her for being white or are just pictures of her...to show that she's white. God, twitter is peopled by total fucking morons...

Jezebel (and pretty much all of the former Gawker rags) is basically regressive trash, so that's not surprising. Just another example of the logically bankrupt "you're either with us or against us" mentality of the far left.

I saw people on twitter saying that. I honestly thought it was a gag, so I didn't click through. How positively ignorant.

For those not aware, amen is a latin word meaning roughly "so be it" and isn't gendered at all. It's found in the Old Testament, so I'm thinking Hebrew. Or should I say she-brew? (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) Anyway, I bet there's a good chance that Cleaver was just making a bad pun and knows that amen isn't gendered, although admittedly, that wouldn't be quite as amusing.

Apparently he's desperately trying to spin it that way now (likely to save what's left of his face), but it came off to me like an incredibly clumsy and misguided attempt to do the progressive's "secret-yet-public handshake" of virtue signalling.

Could be both, I guess. But I'm hesitant to say he must not have known the meaning of the word, as Trump Jr. seemed to think. Mainly because it's an old joke that I've heard before.

Whatever his intent, can we agree it was a stupid thing to do, given the when and the where of the prayer? The "pun" wouldn't have bothered me at all, but that may not be true for everyone who was there; not all members of other religions and denominations are okay with "punning" during prayers.
ETA: Look what Cleaver said: I mean, it's his fault that the rest of the prayer isn't getting any attention, because it was a serious thing that he then screwed up by trying to be clever (according to him).
