The Democratic National Committee is hiring IT people for these positions:

The Daily Wire, a conservative blog, posted an e-mail purportedly from Madeleine Leader, the DNC's Data Services Manager, showing her announcing the openings and writing

I personally would prefer that you not forward to cisgender straight while males, since they're already in the majority.

The Daily Wire blogger posted a different screenshot of the e-mail on Twitter.

    Not really. Neither Johnson nor Stein had any charisma to speak of.

    I find it sad and troubling that charisma is a highly valued leadership quality. Some of the most evil people in history had great charisma. It would be amazing if our education system would teach and encourage children to look for and vote for good qualities and character. I can't help but wonder how much better we all would live, and how much more social progress would be made if we voted based on intelligence, honor, dedication, unity, fairness, honesty, etc.

    If schools taught those things, education would be forbidden.

    You're asking humans to be angels instead of the talking animals they are.

      I think he's asking humans to not be absolutely retarded, which is still too much to ask for.

      He's not wanting people to be angels, just that they be able to distinguish angels from devils.

        Alright, but we know who the devils are.

        What are you limp-wristed keyboard warriors going to do about it?

        Fucking Nothing. So it doesn't matter.
