We definitely need to reclaim that flag. I think I’ve been saying that my entire life. That flag belongs to me much more than it does to some RWA who hates the actual country, its people, and the experiment and liberty its supposed to stand for.
I even support burning the flag, and I think that flag belongs to liberals much more than it does to the right wing reactionaries known as conservatives and Republicans in this country.
Seems like the pedo-in-chief is rather upset about 2% of the country coming out, in person, to spend many hours showing they don’t like him.
Even a mush-brained dumbass like Taco has to know that for every person that showed up, there are many others that didn’t go for whatever reason - maybe they didn’t have a ride, or they are disabled, or they had conflicting obligations (work, family, etc), and not because they don’t also dislike him.
The only problem with this is that even back then, Donvict was not that skinny and he didn’t have that much hair.
Sombunall.
Worthy term to learn.
Every time you think the Confederates and their stupid god-emperor have hit rock-bottom, they find a new way to keep digging.
I know that this decision will upset many, and delight others, but in this political climate I must keep my family safe,” Douglass said […]
Oh, FUCK this guy. Pretending to be the victim here and invoking his family.
JFC.
Who cares what little stump says?
For what purpose?
Republican politicians first.
Of all the people I want to see the legal system directed at, Noem definitely ranks way up there. The amount of cosplay and trolling from that bitch, JFC.
It’s weird to describe what has always an ideological mess - and I’m talking about the state of conservatives and the Republican Party long, long, long before Taco was even a glimmer in their eye - as a “collapse”.
The dumbasses that think that solar is “woke” are just insufferable. Same goes for the asshats that think things like windmills are just for effete latte-sipping liberals. Did they think the windmills that farmers have been using for quite some time were put up there by “soy boys”?
Both of these things can help add to our energy independence. Both of these things add to us being more resilient in our infrastructure. You’d think nearly everyone could see that, from the left all the way to the most hard-core right wing doomsday prepper types…but in this day and age, the Confederate Party has to weaponize and politicize everything. No matter how much of a self-own it is.
I would agree. You could probably designate a chimp as CEO, make sure they are hidden away, and let the rest of the company operate as needed.
And he’s not doing Tesla as a full-time job. He’s also CEO, chairman, and CTO of SpaceX.
Isn’t he supposedly operating six companies? Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, The Boring Company, Neuralink, and X?
Every time I hear some apologist for the extremist position of executive pay that we are operating under, I now think of this guy. In at least his case, it’s clearly a part-time job for one or more of these companies.
Oddly, most companies frown on the average worker doing any moonlighting. They want you exclusively working for one company, at least for white-collar jobs. Doesn’t seem to apply to executives, since it’s fairly common for them to also sit on the boards of other companies, even if it’s not common for them to be operating six companies…
Thanks for the book recommends. I think I’ve heard Thom mention his book(s) before, including that one, when listening to his podcast, but I never heard of the other. Just tracked down the audiobook and started listening…
It annoys me, too, and probably because it’s been going on for 70+ years (multi-generational at this point) and gets zero push back. From people that sure as hell know better and are in a position to ask why Republicans cannot use the right name. Just question it. Embarrass them. Keep asking why adult leaders in their party are being so childish - do they even know the right name?
It’s one thing if it’s people online goofing or people on the street, whatever. I do it quite frequently and come up with nicknames for the opposition. But I’m not a politician and I’m not a talking head. I have no platform and no power and no prominence.
How an entire party can get away with it and have zero commentary on it in any meaningful way is really wild.
I’d rather most stops were more like his, if I’m to be honest. Meaning, treating the person as if they are a human (even if the guy does come off like an entitled douche). I have a feeling if it was him pulling over someone brown, it might look like some of the clips I’ve seen Meidas posting, where ICE is ripping open a car door and pulling people out of a car, getting them on the ground, etc. I have a feeling these guys were being more than deferential because of what his job was.
This guy was actually doing something dangerous in his case - driving under the influence. Granted, I don’t know the full context of those ICE videos I’ve seen short clips of, but it sure seems they are escalating things rather quickly and only because they are brown. Do these people really need to be hauled out of their car, wrestled to the ground, etc.?
I’d say it’s more our flag than it is theirs.
I really wish some mass effort would be to message liberals everywhere in America to hoist a flag somewhere on their property/apartment and on their car. Doesn’t have to be upside down, or some alt version of it. Don’t brand it with some Democratic candidate’s name. Just reclaim the normal American flag, flown/displayed normally and very prominently.
Make it a real movement - have it everywhere. I bet you anything if this were to continue, the RWA edgelords would further out themselves by having to fly some perverted version of the flag, or even just start flying Nazi-affiliated stuff outright, because they’d need to “own” the “normies”.
The way they do that right now is to fly OUR American flag on all their property/car. If we were to start reclaiming what is rightfully OURS, it would confuse the living shit out of all these gaslighting jackass trolls that are trying to set themselves apart from society.
