A few blooms from the fireworks show in Mount Angel, Oregon.
Always the dogwhistle..
NOTHING anymore is social programs, social benefit, societal good.
OMG it's a SOCIALIST!!
Yeah, he's muslim too - Eeeek!
People actually do see through this shit - and some even keep the receipts..
This is a premier example why we need to stop using those terms altogether.
Yes, history is cyclic, but we ought to give more credit to the zeitgeist we face today.
Never in our history have we seen such an efficient conglomeration of religion, supremecy, and hate groups working in unison.
They deserve new, fresh words. Something catchy to yell, as we throw molotovs at them..
Right? Duly reported...
Patriotism is a MacGuffin -
It's a feeling.
Now, you may think I'm attempting to invalidate it, but far from it. From the revolutionary war up to present - what is a 'Patriot' has been poorly defined, and left to subjective interpretation.
Forget the gaslighting Republicans have been under since the Tea-Party. Let's go back, say thirty years, to the Family Values Coalition. Or perhaps another thirty years back to McCarthyism and the HUAC. Or even further back to Strom Thurman trying to legitimize the KKK. (or else we could just recognize that the family lines in control of the narrative now, are the slave-owner families of the South.)
-Make no doubt - They think they are 'Patriots'.
People will become bellicose about what a true 'patriot' is - I tell you, don't give two flying-f*cks..
Did Thomas Paine, and Paul Revere know the impact of their actions on those days? Of course not.
And that is the way it will be with this new history. It tends to be defined by the victors, by the way. Might wanna get off your ass...
Well, I was going to mention the typo - But that was before all the IMDB links..
Da Fuq?
All I can say, is the neoliberal efforts towards gun control not only didn't work - it's backfired in a way that's about to make a slave nation out of all of us.
I have nothing to celebrate as an American. I seek..
The charismatic leader, with a plan, with command and control, and more importantly - clear guidelines for the cessation of hostilities. Sure would be nice if the rest of you caught up..
Well lets see, you are coming out of one of the biggest tanks ever for the gaming movie franchise. The online mentions are far more jokes about your IP than any kind of nostalgia.
Sure, go exclusive! And make sure you code 60% of your next project with AI - the gamers will love it!
And what? Tell them to get a spine? Oust the corporate sycophants? Restore the New Deal? Prosecute the traitors?
This is what they are.
yawn
Why yes, the first openly gay ghost in comics...
