Literally was coming here to find this. This is the party that's supposedly "against communism" yet here we are about to find out who the next Trofim Lysenko is going to be.

I'm sorry, but fuck Texas and it's "denied secession."

The American South plays victim every chance it can in its lost cause mythos and "look at how poor picked on we are" when they spent years pushing federal requirements like the Fugitive Slave Act on the non-slave states and got pissy when they couldn't overtake the numbers of slave states over non-slave states so they wanted to take their ball and go home, but the North wouldn't let them lea... no... wait... they fucking shot first. "War of northern aggression" indeed.

The mess we're in is the culture that created the civil war originally can't get over themselves and have mythologized themselves into the victims when they were the assholes causing the problem.

-Signed a southerner who is FUCKING sick of hearing how Texas never signed to rejoin the union every time he's near at least three Texans.

Live here and drove across the country, KC traffic is some of the nicer traffic compared to most major metros.

But part of what to understand with the shit police we have is helpful to explain that Kansas City is one of the only two metros that doesn't have control over its PD (the other is St. Louis, which Missouri just took back over this year). So in the city, the police are ran by a 5 person panel, 1 is the mayor, the other 4 are picked by the governor.

And since we've had nothing but right wing nutjobs for mayors for the past 3, they love to go after the "liberal cities" which means it's in their favor to be easy on the police in all forms, and what can the people in the city going to do about it? The answer is as long as the city doesn't have control over it, then fuck all.

I think what gets me is looking at it, the Sunoco is the only part that looks different than towns here in Missouri, just because we don't have those.

It's not just the advertising takeover, not just what's done to the planet, but the culture across a country this large has so homogenized that what culture is there?

I love how when I was hearing about them looking at this, I was getting responses from people "It requires congressional approval" over and over. This is my shocked face.

I'm going to say I 100% agree with you. The lunatic wants North Korean style marches and is angry that's not happening.

But I also want to say, what clips I've seen holy crap their marching was abysmal, like I've seen Civil Air Patrol flights with better marching. I'm not military so I can only talk so much, when listening to vets, their comments are along the lines of the people in the parade basically doing a shitty job because "Mandatory Fun Day" as apparently it's called.

Frankly I think that's funny myself.

Well, individually I'm there with you. What frightens me is they actually have the capability to organize.

Coming from the south, they have an impressive ability to organize (fucking hell, potluck happens and shits on) and by the end they'll be gathered together for a good rant of racist anger.

Dad talks about when he was a kid the KKK outright coming in full costume to give the tithe to show. The important part he said was that it wasn't that they were so threatening they could do it, it's because enough people there agreed with them to not throw them out.

Oh man, but the statement of Abbot vs Waltons.

She's not even one of the actual inner circle Waltons, a married in one, has no real share power to Walmart, just rich as fuck. But I can't stop laughing at the idea of Abbot getting confused and going after the likes of Alice and such as well.

Fuck, the only thing on the list I'm not is rich and I'm fucking scared of the Southern Baptists.
