And the few that do won't go very far beyond that and say the problem is "crony capitalism," "not true capitalism" or go straight to JQ-ing.

Other dogshit takes I sometimes come across: "they aren't really native anyway because they also came here and stole this land at one point" and "they were killing each other long before we got here so what we did was okay."

You know, because migration and settling that happen on their own, and even inter-tribal warfare, are totally the same as industrialized, state-sanctioned colonization and genocide.

Why is the one in the middle holding a Trump-Vance 24 sign? Someone give them the memo that the election is over.

Grandmotherly woman cries as she is brutalized by a US government thug.

That's all I get from that image. Even the chuds' own fucking AI tells on them.

Chuds can finally knock off their bullshit about migrants "being a burden" on taxpayers or whatever, we all knew that was an excuse. They obviously have no problem with the gov't spending millions, possibly billions, of their tax dollars on a facility that's solely dedicated holding migrants.

Not Texas, but Pennsylvania. Your point still stands though.

But the propaganda machine (run by the same people who are aligned with Trump and Elon) will put the blame for shit inevitably going wrong on trans people/black people/Muslims/Jews/immigrants/socialists/antifa/whomever the right wants their voters to be scared of.

Americans in general are too cucked to doubt the people they worship.

And it looks even worse from ground level. Looks like the Exxon station is gone. How the fuck does a gas station close in the US?

When you operate on the assumption that "socialism is when the government does stuff", it snowballs from there.

I have a family member who legit believes agencies like NSA and CIA are communist.

If they ever get to Superbowl 509, the Roman numerals for it would be DIX.

Euphemy, in contrast, "good speech", includes ways religious people modified these invocations against God to avoid blasphemy. Damn > darn ; God > gosh; sacré dieu (fr) > sacré bleu.

I learned not long ago that phrases like "Jeepers Creepers!" or "Jiminy Crickets!" were euphemisms for "Jesus Christ!"

I don't know why it took me so many years to realize that.

The radio edit of Everlast's "What It's Like" is butchered to hell. "He pulled out his xxx xxx talked some xxx and wound up xxx."

A local radio show I used to listen to at work about 10 years would say "god damn" all the time. Back then I thought it was a sign of progress because nobody seemed to care, when maybe in the late 90s/early 00s, people would have thrown a fit hearing that.

I listened to the same show a few weeks ago, and now they censor "god damn" among other cuss words they used to allow.

 
 
 

More often than not, the plots are a variation of "woman in the big city gives up her job, leaves her (admittedly bougie and shitty) boyfriend, and moves back to the small town she grew up in where she hooks up with her old boyfriend who, in spite of his working class salt-of-the-earth appearance, has money."
