It takes a village

… asks village for help

Village response: … sure! … but here is a 20 page document that details the conditions that need to be met before we help

It’s the escalating culture of public acceptance

• first you accept disagreement
• then accept disgust
• then accept name calling
• then accept lying about facts
• then accept pushing people
• then accept striking people
• then accept beating people
• then accept maiming people
• then accept killing people
  … I think we are at his level right now … but knowing human stupidity and our long history of this sort of thing … we’ll keep escalating the violence
• we’ll probably go on to murdering people
• go on to rounding up people for death
• go on to just killing whoever is left just to remove all witnesses and anyone that might come back to continue the fighting

Americans are only outraged by whoever tells them to be outraged about

Yeah … it’s best to grab what money you can now and run … because you won’t be able to later

They don’t want ‘everyone’ … they just want ‘white christian people of european descent’

When you are a brown person, the messaging from these asshats is always the same racist bullshit we’ve heard for hundreds of years

None … it’s always OK to punch a Nazi … and its also OK to punch a Nazi sympathizer

What is this high school?

American government sounds more and more like the varsity sports team of America High

*Political violence is quintessentially American Conservatism

A lot of that historical violence has been directed at minorities, social groups, marginalized groups, Indigenous people, LGBTQ+, union workers, blacks, Hispanics, women

If you want to narrow it all down … most of the American political violence, the majority of it over the past 200 years was driven by white Christian males who believe they are a ruling class and need to be on top overpowering everyone else for their own personal benefit … usually with the lame excuse that it is God’s will. And I honestly also don’t believe it has anything to do with God or Christianity or even religion … it’s just a small entitled group of people who just want all the power, all the money and all the control … you know the same jungle mentality of that one male monkey who wants all the bananas and all the females and be able to pound their chest and make everyone scared.

I’m Indigenous Canadian and this does not mean I want to jump over the political cliff and call for the end of all white Christian males … I’m just pointing out the history … and what I believe is that we can all coexist together without any one group dominating over another and everyone just living together equally - socially and economically.

It could be a child or someone with dwarfism holding an oversized banana … we need more info

that is either an enormous banana or the smallest cat I’ve ever seen

How about including mention of wanting to start a union or union activity with everyone in the group and how you are all wanting to join forces as ‘workers of the world uniting!’ … then read as much Karl Marx text as you can in 30 seconds.

Management would love to see those flags on their alerts from everyone in the office.

This is the equivalent of that obnoxious kid in the neighbourhood saying they’re taking their basketball home and no one can play basketball any more … then after he leaves, someone else brings another basketball anyway.

Nothing more American than to see Republicans freak out at the tiniest possibility that someone wants to actually help average Americans … and instead of ignoring them, they label him a radical socialist that is dangerous… dangerous to who? The rich!

Make … (cough, cough, cough) … America … (cough, HACK, ACK) …Great … (cough, hack, wheeze, cough, hack)… Again

The Chinese government sitting around the phone with the US on hold …“how long should we make them wait?”

“Give them another hour, it’s already been two” (another round of belly busting laugher)

America: … (pretending to make static sounds, muffling their voice like it’s a bad connection)… WHAT’S THAT??! … we’ve got a bad connection … did you say … BOMB THEM MORE? … (keeps pretending to make static sounds)

It’s the political version of ‘Weekend at Bernie’s’ … America killed democracy a long time ago and they’ve been parading around the dead body for years pretending that everything is OK.

As the years go by it’s getting harder and harder to get people to ignore the rotting stinking corpse they keep dressing up in American flags and uniforms.

Who says it survived the last war in the middle east?

American democracy is an oxymoron
