Definitely. Things politicians say make a lot more sense when you realize that code speak.

It kind of always has been this way. “The people,” “Americans,” “White people,” etc have always been defined arbitrarily, and always in American history have referred to wealthy landowners who adhered to a puritan work ethic and a supposed “Anglo-Saxon” culture.

I don’t think “over educated” is the right word. I lean toward “poorly educated regarding history and the other humanities.”

”…ending Biden’s dumb war on things that work.”

This is real language used in official White House communications.

It is the language of a second grader.

I’m loving the interest rate.

Yeah, I like your idea better. It just feels further out of reach, so in the meantime, I’ll have to be satisfied with mocking.

He’s a narcissistic idiot and a baby. He deserves to be mocked mercilessly.

No! America just wants all the food (and spices) from brown countries!!!1!! Brown people are obviously bad, though!

/s, but not really. Steal the culture and “good ideas,” hurt the people who created those things. All pretty par for the course.

Sounds to me like the US government has been thoroughly infiltrated by corporations only interested in their own profit. How dare other countries not pay billions to American corporations??

But we knew this already.

Sounds like real, genuine community. Like a block party.

Fascism will be destroyed by tight communities, so this is a win.

I wish the US had a vaccine record. The only record I have of my childhood vaccines are on some 30 year old pieces of paper in a folder somewhere in my house. A national record would make me feel safer about the possibility of a house fire and losing these papers.

I like the covid vaccine record. Somehow, those have followed me digitally between towns without me having to produce the card. More of that please.

His frustration and Israel’s losses are both a goddamned delight.

When will people learn that he is not a doctor???

This shit makes me SO MAD. Real people are being treated like nonhumans, like their lives don’t matter. I could easily be one of those women, just dead. Dead for no goddamned reason.

I was looking for this comment. ALL fines should run as a percentage of annual income or profits. This includes traffic tickets and other fines.

I want to hear everyone supporting this horrific move actually try to justify it. TELL IT TO MY FACE, YOU COWARDS.

Protest without the ultimate threat of force behind it is a parade.

I’ve never heard it worded this way, before, but it sums up something that has been bothering me about modern protests: they are parades.

Even with the /s, did you feel the need to shower after making that comment? Because god that’s awful.

I want off this ride.

Young millennial, actually.

It’s my generation’s joke that social security wouldn’t be available for us to retire on, but seeing it actively dismantled fills me with an indescribable rage.
