POG Politics Thread Version 3
Come on in! Since Dustin is taking his ball and going home, it's time to start a new politics thread.
I realize it's not a corgi, I got caught up in the poetry of it.
Too bad he already served two terms.
Politics is show business for ugly people.
-Paul Begala, noted advisor to Bill Clinton
Mark is a true Republican, whenever pedophilia is mentioned, they cannot help but to whip out old Slick Willy. But don't nobody gaf about a Clinton. It's people out here would die for Obama (and Trump) but a Clinton don't mean diddly squat to a mule with blinders.
So who's going to a "No Kings" protest?
Filthy, if you get arrested, give me a shout-out towards the cameras!
Har har har
my protesting days are behind me.
I did it get into it a little bit with a rich old white man about the protests. sometimes i really need to just stfu and let things go
I've never been to a protest. My friend was in Time Magazine for tearing down the KKK cross*.
I did attend this event though at Serpent Mound.
*Cincinnati used to have a KKK cross in Fountain Square downtown every Christmas. Idk if they still do it.
Quick did you know:
Stonehenge was built in 1958.
at first I was shocked about the KKK cross, but then thinking about it more, it's standard for USA to have monuments to really awful people/things... I mean Mt Rushmore is arguably worse than any KKK cross. i'd argue much worse, but open to being wrong
Just remembered a protest I went to in the 90s.
Weed legalization. Weed is now legal here. I have a 100% effectiveness rate.
No TACO's around here.
Counter protest?
Everybody got their riot gear ready for tomorrow's big event?
Going to travel down to Indiana and take over a small town. I've got a big "KEEP ICE OUT OF PERU" sign, a cooler full of Fosters (it's Australian for beer) and three bags of marshmallows in the freezer getting ready to throw at Nazis.
I'm going to be fighting traffic at my daughters college graduation.
There will be no protesting in my neck of the woods. During George Floyd, twelve white people got together in a park to discuss racial equity and the government freaked out and put on a 6:30PM curfew. Not kidding.
Update: Just added a "YASSS QUEENS" sign to the kit. The patriarchy is going to be so ****ed.
Pussy hat?
Looks like I was wrong, they got them No Kings things all over the place up here. I guess if you're not protesting on behalf of minorities it's a green light!
Around here at least the NO KINGS people are mostly boomers.
They're going to be cover for the real ones.
I'm hoping to shelter in place:
for the riots
for the 3 nuclear wars
for global warming
for the next pandemic
for people trying to talk to me
