    I'm still trying to find the trucks driving around downtown in circles with a dozen Biden flags on them. And the antifa flags.

    Or the houses decked out in life-sized cutouts of Biden and photoshops of Biden as Rambo.

    I'm sure we'll see that kind of "enthusiasm" aaaannnnnyyyyy dddddaaaaayyyyyyyy now.

    I posted Kool & The Gang's "Celebration" on my (new) Twitter account. Does that qualify?

    Are you celebrating "Yay Biden" or "Yay not Trump"?

    Both, though the "Yay Biden" part is mainly in response to his actions since being inaugurated.

    Wait...are you telling me that your respect for a president is linked to his policy...and not just because he "trolls the libs"?

    That seems very unpatriotic :P

    Yeah, I know. I'm an expat so I guess I should move back to recharge my 'MURICA sensibilities before I become dangerously level-headed.

    You inspired me to check my Twitter account, I have not touched in years. I’m apparently so woke... I retweeted Bernie Sanders in 2014...

    Both for me as well.

    TBF though . . . it's a bit more "Yay not Trump." However, given his EO actions so far, I'm optimistic.

    Less bad to be sold to the americans compared to the other destinations. America wasn't the oldest or even largest buyer of slaves at the time though it was rather more... I hate to use the word humane for it as it doesn't fit... less cruel? Options.

    It's why I am always baffled by the utter ignorance of americans when it comes to world history you would think they authored every misery and triumph of the world while being one of the youngest nations.

    I mean, I'm pretty fucking comfortable not equivocating on the issue, myself. Slavery is slavery, it's all horrid, and there is no "less cruel" option. It was all barbaric, inhuman, and monstrous.

    Which sidesteps the related problem of the fact that the South went to war literally to preserve the institution, but that's getting off topic for this thread.

    Yes, we know. Americans are ignorant of US history. Americans are also ignorant of world history. Neither of which is here or there when we're talking about functional Klansmen trying to rewrite US history.

    Which again, is why I'm glad folks that seem to think like you aren't in the government and aren't working on our education policies.

    Do you honestly think any of this matters in the slightest? "American slaves had it better[citation needed], so we shouldn't do anything about the centuries-long impact the practice had on race relations in the United States!" couldn't be a more pathetic line to take.

    I wouldn't be too sure about that...

    These are the 8 people arrested earlier yesterday after a crowd attacked the Democratic Party of Oregon headquarters in Portland.
    These are the people incited by dumdum radical media influencers like Jimmy Dore and Kyle Kulinski.

    What’s wrong this picture?

    Yeah it's pretty fucking gross for someone to be like "well, American Slavers were the Good Slavers"

    It’s precisely the kind of nonsense narrative that needs removing from the school system.

    Republicans can’t simultaneously praise themselves as the party of Lincoln and also say “slavery wasn’t that bad” when Lincoln called it, and I quote, a “moral, social, and political evil.”

    Weird watching the American president talk, without coming up with weird ideas like cleaning your internals with bleach.

    It's gonna take some time, to get used to good arguments, and logic thinking behind the POTUS actions. I guess we always have Boris Johnson to provide the entertainment.

    Name one thing the repubs have not been major hypocrites about.

    To think they cannot go full hypocrite on yet another thing is not going to get you anywhere.
