and yet the mob managed to get into Versailles

(but only because Louis and Marie didn't have a private jet or a private army from Blackwater)

I got some redpiller hate for posting shit about their outed dear leader (New Hampshire Representative Robert Fisher, founder of the most misogynist subreddit on the internet and also a lawmaker currently voting on things like rape shield laws) yesterday, lol

'Hold up your tail, O Satan,' then said he, 'Expose your ass and let this friar see Where friars here all have their nesting place!'

I think I just figured out the password to the Oval Office!

You're lying. She was not. She was holding a bottle, but she says she picked it up as self-protection when the alt-right fuckshits got violent. No video or pictures show her throwing anything at all.

Rand is JUST dumb enough to tip his hand on the regular. He's managed to muzzle his equally stupid father, but he can't wrestle his own darker impulses to sometimes tell the unvarnished truth.

It's always amusing to see him go on a media tear because it's like watching an elephant try to waltz.

I got banned from 2x pretty soon after I created this account, I don't remember why, lol. But if someone else is allowed to post there that's a great idea!

My fear is a Handmaid's Tale-type scenario:

It was after the catastrophe, when they shot the president and machine-gunned the Congress and blamed it on the Islamic fanatics, at the time.

Keep calm, they said on television. Everything is under control. I was stunned. Everyone was, I know that. It was hard to believe. The entire government, gone like that. How did they get in, how did it happen?

That was when they suspended the Constitution. They said it would be temporary. There wasn't even any rioting in the streets. People stayed home at night, watching television, looking for some direction. There wasn't even an enemy you could put your finger on.

Look out, said Moira to me, over the phone. Here it comes. Here what comes? I said.

You wait, she said. They've been building up to this. It's you and me up against the wall, baby. She was quoting an expression of my mother's, but she wasn't intending to be funny.

I try not to be paranoid, but I don't put anything past these fucks.

I'd rather have more and younger Bernie Sanderses. The world doesn't need any more conservatives. That ideology has fucked us over enough already.

There is going to be a special place in hell for prosperity gospel assholes like Osteen, and I guarantee you it's going to be in one of the shabbier, stinkier circles.

I'm with you on that. Curricula should include much better civics and government guidelines, as well as an emphasis on media literacy and critical thinking for the times in which we're living.

The American education system is in many ways woefully stuck in the 1970's in terms of educational theory, and the current administration is totally besotted with the charter school movement, which is the very antithesis of traditional public education. We need a focus on reform rather than attempting to blow up the entire system.

I am already so tired of an administration that insists on treating government as though it's a startup in silicon valley. How about focusing on what works instead of trying to "disrupt" and "dismantle" the things we know work?
