  • Like I had to include that many different outlets in order to provide a full picture. FYI, APNews reported about this in late August. The fact that the NYT is telling you about it this week means that something very wrong occurred for two months while they didn’t.

    The rightwing having a 1000-page guide to their overthrow of the country is what I would call the most important event of this year on US soil.

    Do you want to only be told about the climate change rejection and not the other plans? That’s what’s fucked up.





  • No. American History X was pretty on the mark for the state of the US in 1999.

    Trump ‘telling it like it is’ and how he was going to make Mexico pay for the border wall were what brought all the racist scum out of the woodwork.

    Political correctness gets a lot of flak, but what it did was raise the bar. If you have to be careful to call one group of students ‘first years’ and not ‘freshmen’, then you know damn well calling different ethnic groups slurs is not acceptable. The PC movement drove the racists further into the closet, and then Trump was a big dinner bell to bring that shit back out again.






  • Well, there’s also the fact that after WWII, while the Allies were dividing the world up like a giant birthday cake, they created most of these problems: North Korea, Iraq-Kuwait, and plunking a new Jewish country down in the middle of Arabia.

    If the Allies had decided that Ohio is a new Jewish country, what would’ve been the fallout from that?

    As much as we seem a step removed from this issue, we made the problem.
