Reagan had the evil empire, and republicans have always claimed if you elect a democrat you are electing the next Chamberlin appeaser and our enemy will walk all over us.

I don't think people are calling her a racist, but it's reasonable to apologize for using out of date terms from the 1950's. I can hear your response forming in your mind now, what about the NAACP! Pretty much every headline or text in the articles I have read about this mentioned racial slur when ... |

Autistic people have various difficulties discussing their interests IRL but still have a need to do so. Wrong Planet the only place for them to do it sometimes. I do not think there is any less autism discussion but as noted above and in countless other threads the tone of the discussions and overa... |

Is this a major problem? absolutely. Describing it as a holocaust is hyperbole. There are not millions of disabled people bieng killed by a deliberate goverment decision to do so.
