We discuss the utter insanity of the Red Hen controversy. We talk about how the language of “civility” is often used to shut down peaceful protest. We note the hypocrisy of those on the right who want the right to refuse people service based on religion, but who are outraged when they are kicked out of restaurants. We then talk about the recent Supreme Court ruling on the Muslim ban and the resignation of Justice Kennedy and what this means for our future. After some doom and gloom we end on a positive note by discussing the primary win of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and what she means for the future of democratic politics.
