Reality Check Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The NFL won't be getting any more money from me... ...we have one national anthem... ...the rest of this crap is a continuation of the slow march to where absolutely nothing is sacred to anyone anymore... ...without a common culture to bind all citizens together within an agreed upon code of ethics, there is no country... ...perhaps that is the point of the exercise? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality Check Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Modern slavery still exists... ...do we still give non-western nations a free pass... ...why are we tearing our monuments, when our enemies are protecting the slave trade? Gee, I wonder how many of our products are made by actual slaves and for cheap prices? Is that the meaning of this distraction? Global corporations and banks no the score on this, and yet we are the bad guys in their eyes... ...curious how the modern left wants us to remain at war around the world... ...the left is in line with corporate propaganda... ...the left is in line with the commercial banks politics also... Notice how the left is always trying to tell you what to say and how you should feel about everything... ...one of these days, enough people will wake up to this communist infiltration of American society... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call it a hunch, but as things get worse before they get better, while the left puts the petal to the floor, more people will see it for what it is... ...organized and targeted subversion of the country unifying matrix of ethics and traditions. The USA sucks and has to change while the rest of the world is so perfect? BS! People escape the rest of the world to come here. This fight politically is for who controls the emission center of the US dollar, which is the Federal Reserve. Now that we are pinned to essentially 0% interest for the cost of government borrowing, the leftists want to seize control of the spigot and impose their worldview with unlimited funding at 0% interest. This election has implications that will reverberate for centuries to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Quote Trump has accelerated a decades-old trend toward parties redefining themselves by race and racial attitudes. Racial resentment is now the single most important factor driving Republicans and Republican-leaning movers, according to extensive research, most recently by Nicholas Valentino and Kirill Zhirkov at the University of Michigan — more than religion, culture, class or ideology. An ongoing study by University of North Carolina researchers finds that racial resentment even drives hostility toward mask-wearing and social distancing. Conversely, racial liberalism now drives Democrats of all colors more than any other factor. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/07/03/massive-repudiation-trumps-racist-politics-is-building/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be enslaved is to be a slave. And I doubt anyone who ever experienced it, or is currently experiencing it, felt or feels the least bit more dignified calling him/her enslaved or a slave. The condition is the condition despite academics engaging in linguistic gymnastics to make themselves feel more enlightened.

You can try and keep this false narrative of a topic alive if you get some perverted joy out of it but keep in mind that the USA is not the country that STARTED or even REVIVED slavery. It’s the country that ENDED it. That’s something worth celebrating if you ask me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
