Slate Writer: Trump ‘Offers His Followers’ a ‘Fascist Bargain’
Did liberals’ reliance on so-called identity politics cost them the presidential election? It doesn’t matter, suggested Slate’s Michelle Goldberg in a Tuesday piece. Goldberg has no use for “the more illiberal aspects of social justice politics,” but thinks that in general Democrats stand for exactly what, and who, they should stand for. “There can be no going back on defending the tenuous gains…

Culture
After fashion designer Sophie Theallet declined to dress Melania Trump for ideological reasons, most media outlets failed to draw the perfectly obvious parallel. Why was this action acceptable if those of countless Christian bakers, florists and photographers were not?

'Supergirl' Villain Attacks 'Climate Change Deniers'
Culture
I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised at this. If I’m watching a science-fiction show, the first thing I should suspect is them peddling the greatest science-fiction of them all: global warming. Perhaps the CW’s Supergirl thinks I’ll swallow whatever they’re saying better than believing a man (or woman) can fly, but climate change remains just as nonsensical as if it were coming from Bill Nye the…

The Root Election Freak-Out: 'You Will Be Under Attack Everywhere'
Culture
Trump won. Liberal heads are exploding. And few have made a bigger, more hysterical and downright nonsensical bang than the noggin of Lawrence Ross at lefty black website The Root. “These are dangerous times.” Lawrence hyperventilated. America’s choice of “a racist, xenophobic, and misogynist man” was the fault of “white people.” You see, “Their love of white supremacy trumped their desire for a…

“Not everything is about you being gay, Kenny!” Oh, how happy I was to hear those words finally spoken on ABC’s The Real O’Neals, Tuesday. Unfortunately, even when the show takes its attention off how gay Kenny O’Neal (Noah Galvin) is, they can’t seem to shake off being anti-Catholic, anti-conservative, or anti-anything decent. This episode focuses on taking down the sanctity of marriage.
