The sign doesn’t bother me nearly as much as his smug, “look how clever I am” grin. He needs a good smack in his greasy little head.
She'll always have the legacy that she was too mentally incompetent to know when it's time to retire and let the next generation take over. Worked herself to death and for what exactly
Her and RBG really fucked up badly. But they don't have to be here to see the fallout.
It's like to know what Ruth Baker Ginsberg did wrong except die early. She was sharp up to her very last day.
Don't paint all old people with the same ignorant brush. Try and grow some empathy while you can still use it.
She was 87. Yeah, she was sharp as a tack, no doubt. But 87 isn't dying early. It sure isn't dying early when you account for the fact that she was diagnosed with colon cancer back in 99, pancreatic cancer in 09, and had surgery in 2014 because of the cancer.
This has nothing to do with empathy or painting old people with any brush. This has to do with the health of the nation. She could have retired during the Obama years when she was already well past the average age of death and her body was failing to enjoy a few years of retirement.
I didn't say everyone over 65 needs to be pushed out to sea on an ice floe. If you're feeling like any of my words are an attack on old people maybe examine why. Because it's showing more about you than about me.
She should have retired between November 2014 and January 2015 after the GOP won the Senate elections but the Dems still had a few more weeks of control.
But they were afraid of the optics. Unlike the GOP, the Dems have a sense of shame.

You sure? I just pulled it from Wikipedia. They could be wrong and I make no secret of the fact that I'm wrong pretty often.

We were discussing RBG and the guy's claim that she "died too early", not Feinstein.
Nope, 87.

Yes, but OP was referring to RBG, not Feinstein.
She had the opportunity to retire and let someone younger take her seat. She didnt.
Clarify how they're wrong if you want to label them ignorant, please.
EDIT: Of course they won't…
Yeah no. She's an idiot, fienstien is an idiot too. Most old people are.
Sharp as a rusty spoon, you mean? Staying on knowing that by doing so she was handing her seat to conservatives, ruining her reputation by allowing them to shit on every career accomplishment she had?
Real sharp. Friends like her, who needs enemies?
If I had known the amount of hate I'd get from "my side" if I "overstayed" my welcome I'd also cling to my post out of "fuck you too"
One party holds on their members until their corpse rots in jail, and the other abandons them the minute it smells of fart…
Politics are fun!
It's almost as if one side plays unfairly to the status quo and has more power, and the other side has to actively fight for and defend progress and doesn't want to take steps backward.
So you would abandon your morals if asked to give up power to prevent that power being used against your accomplishments?
Sounds like you get along swimmingly with rgb. Power over progress was her motto too.
He’s out of line, but he’s not wrong.
He said what a lot of us are thinking.
Then say it somewhere where her family is not. Tacky AF.
She fucked up countless families. I have no sympathy for hers.
Then bring it up at somewhere other than her funeral. You are a fucking asshole.
Fuck that. The lesson isn't being learned.
If you are so fortunate as to exceed the median life expectancy, it is time for you to step aside and leave the important decisions to those who still have a future.
You're an idiot and not worth listening to then
Huh. Well, I hadn't considered a political career, but since you think I'm qualified…
If you don't want your life to be a political issue, don't go into politics.
That is the dumbest logic ever. Everyone has a family that should be able to mourn that has absolutely nothing to do with their career choices. No one related to anyone ever has a choice about what career people chose. A funeral is not only about the person. It's about the family and friends around them.
You are stupid. Stop trying to justify it and sound smart. You don't. You sound selfish and short sighted and not worth listening to about anything political or otherwise because you are too inept to realize the consequences in a grander scale.
Go cry to someone that gives a shit.
AWW, THE RICH PERSON DIED AND PEOPLE ARE MAKING FUN OF THEM.
Is that better?
We need more fucking assholes because the pussies are allowing the destruction of democracy
You are stupid and not worth listening to
And yet here you are
Funny, thats what everyone else was saying about you just now
Her family is in the parking lot?
You must be part of Westborough pedo church
Is he even out of line?
Oh. He's out of line. This should be a "come into my office on Monday so we can discuss the thing I saw on the internet and your future at this company" conversation that will haunt him over and over.
Thats when you call your boss a nosy cunt and ask em why they care.
"come into my office on Monday so we can discuss the thing I saw on the internet and your future at this company"
LOL. And then the employee reacts how, exactly? "Oh noes, I hope you don't fire me, I'd hate working for more money at a company not run by someone so oversensitive"
More like "oh no, I hope you do fire me for my right to protest, thats a very easy lawsuit"
I think they were stating the level of out of line, not the actual consequence.
Haunt? Only in your egotistical dreams, bud. You'd be doing the guy a favor not working for you.
Yeah, fuck the right to protest!
He's not out of line. Many of these politician people don't respect us in life so we absolutely don't ever have to respect them in death.
Protesting funerals is specifically legal, shitty but legal. I'm personally fine with it as long as they're not actively heckling funeral goers.
Yeah, definetely not the time - but he's right
You know what's really fucking trashy? Forcing a senile woman to sit in Congress when she has no idea what's going on.
If that kind of working class solidarity is "trashy" then you can call me the trash man. fuck feinstein fuck Mitch McConnell fuck any politician who holds on to power selfishly at the expense of the rest of us.
aGeIsM
He's right though. Fuck these assholes and their lust for power.
Fuck all those old sacks of ass.
He is right.
Dude is on point.
Imagine being a stan for Feinstein or any of the other politicians that have spent their lives sitting on their hands and making hollow remarks for massive paychecks.
It was a relief when nature forced her to retire. And she was my senator.
I never support protesting funerals, so I’m not exactly a fan of this guy, but he’s not wrong.
You know what's trashy? Arguing with children about climate change.
Also I dunno, don't fly a Confederate flag in a proud union state and then try to prosecute the hero who repeatedly climbed the flag pole, tore it off and burned it.
