Friends with benefits Good day Wonkette Worker Bees, Wanderers and Prisoners With Internet Privileges. Have you been wondering what your favorite #brands have been up to recently? Well, you've come to the right place. We've been keeping tabs on all of your favorite corporate persons and are ready to bring you any breaking news on all the big names. It doesn't matter if it's The Cute One (Coca-Cola), The Shy One (Koch Industries), The Cool One (Uber), The Sporty One (Monsanto), or The Greasy One (Shell Oil, or is it Walmart? maybe JPMorgan Chase. We're still working out the kinks). Anyway, if you're ready to get down with the latest in corporate shenanigans and the people who love to spin them, here we go.
Seems like there's a gunz 'n ammo store within a quarter mile of every Wal-Mart. I'm happy to take this over nothing, but seriously fat lot of good this will do. Need booze.
After reading/researching some of the shit Amazon's Libertarian in Chief has been down with doing to Amazon's workforce, consumers, and sellers alike (equal opportunity scamming and general fuckshittery all around - the Libertarian Way), we closed our accounts permanently. My boycott list at this point is taller than I am. While nothing I do on an individual level will bankrupt Libertarian/Christofascist/Bottomfeeding corporate asshats, I simply refuse to participate. Perhaps eventually I'll throw my laptop out the window and start growing my own food in the basement under a lamp:) In any case, I won't consciously be contributing to other people's misery. It fucking matters.
As it happens, the left's Libertarian cohort had much to do with removing certain Colorado Democratic lawmakers from office for their gun control votes (we eventually restored those seats the next election cycle)... so I'd say that people on my side of the political spectrum have been contributing massively to the "guns everywhere" climate backed by Libertarians because they can't pull their heads out and stop running cover for these supposed "civil libertarians"... which they decidedly are not: http://thepoliticalspectato...
At this point, when we say not voting has consequences, we literally mean life and death consequences:

Coalition to Stop Gun Violence: "Insurrectionism Timeline"
"On June 26, 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court embraced the National Rifle Association’s contention that the Second Amendment provides individuals with the right to take violent action against our government should it become “tyrannical.” The following timeline catalogs incidents of insurrectionist violence (or the promotion of such violence) that have occurred since that decision was issued.

Oh, and let's not forget "progressive" champion, Glenn Greenwald, touring college campuses in the company of Koch-funded white supremacists: LISTEN: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Some of us are complicit, so when I hear/read the belly-aching... all I can think is: this is on every single lefty who ever parroted these people on any issue. Unfortunately. Our side is supposed to be the intelligent, compassionate side. Pfft.
All our Netroots anti-Obama talking points are belong to Koch:) 2009: Libertarian Party Press Release: "Obama = Bush": http://www.lp.org/news/pres...

BTW, the Kochs (and other Libertarian billionaires) have been funding the Christian Right for decades: Lee Fang: "The Koch Brothers’ Fake Libertarianism: War, Forced Pregnancies, and Homophobia"http://www.vice.com/read/th...
And yet, idiot Lee Fang is now sitting right next to Libertarian Glenn Greenwald over at the Libertarian-funded "Intercept" thoroughly clueless as to who is writing his paycheck:) Little does he know that there's noting fake about it. This is what the Libertarian is and has always been.
The question is: are we prepared to admit that we've been duped by the far right [Glenn Greenwald] or do we intend to go down with that ship? Greenwald is not now, nore has he ever been, on "the left": http://glenngreenwald.blogs...
I'm adding that to my list of reasons to stop drinking. No more a booze-addled Boehner will I be!I'll probably just sleep more. Depression does that to people.
What a sick fuck...seriously, what did Jerad do just stroll up to that Mills lady and be like, "Hello, I'm Jerad Fogel and I like 'em young, in fact I just got back from fucking a 9 year old in Thailand....what's your name?"
They're the 'cool one' because they're techie and sound futuristic and are definitely cool in the same way as a the one eyed man is king in the land of the blind compared to the other names mentioned. But yeah agreed, Uber can fuck itself with a rusty industrial mining drill....

Maybe somebody should ask Walmart why the Waltons (along with the Kochs) are funding the 'Tea Party': http://blog.cesinaction.org...

I haven't stepped foot inside a Walmart in ages. Nor will I ever again.
With the AR-15 you didn't buy at WalMart?
Oh please -- we don't need a pipeline for Keystone Xtra Light, regardless of what the GeeOhPee says.
Silver hammer, Max.
Who cares what their stated rationale was? It was just a little bit of corporate brand management jujutsu.

I suppose they could order stuff from Amazon instead. Oh hell, wait...
And what's more American than that?
I think the worst Fleetwood Mac tribute band was Tumors.
