Really hard to blame Lifehacker, considering the damage done to legal precedent and other tomfoolery.
Oh, to be sufficiently privileged to be able to ignore the macroeconomic and political trends.
My grandparents taught me that politics aint about people. They learned that in the Depression. It's about existing power structures, deciding winners and losers. Demographically the GOP as a power player is living on borrowed time and doing everything it can to consolidate power and rebrand itself, in large part because its major three tents in its coalition (poverty-stricken disaffected [sometimes called eat-the-rich], business conservative, evangelical Christian) are not natural allies (as well as the latter two decreasing dramatically in both numbers and support). May the party of malcontent fail and more community-focused coalitions take the reins.
