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.
Someone isn't getting a MAGA hat in their stocking next week.
I'm sure you've got plenty to spare.
Attack the baddies
Yes
just saw a poll where AOC beats Vance heads-up in 2028.
New presidential plaques just dropped
Trump to jail any day now!
agreed. but I do think a woman of color could wipe the floor with Vance. I just don't think a woman of color who is so clearly a complete sell out could do it.
a woman of color would have to energize the masses to win. and people won't get behind her if she is a sellout to the corporate class
I would like to see a woman of color physically wipe a floor with jd vance.
Like Blueface said, mop the floor and hide the wet sign to catch em trippin.
i think usha does that regularly already
obv way too lazy to do any looking into trump's gold card program.... but I'm guessing it's like a green card, but you just pay a bunch of money and get fast tracked, easy entry into usa
easily affordable for terrorists/freedom fighters
Ken burns is such a ****ing POS! I can't even try to watch his doco on the revolution.
I just heard him in an interview say how much he admires ABRAHAM ****IGN GENOCIDAL LINCOLN!!!
My mom and I just watched that entire 12 hour thing. She loved it, most of it.
She's hard left but not quite as far gone as you, filthy.

we've always had a program like that
anyone who invests 500k+ in the usa gets an automatic green card - the world abroad is full of hotel lobby pop up conventions where the firms which specialize in facilitating those investments and filling the green card application paperwork for the clients pitch their services

His thing on jazz was amazing. I have probably watched it five times. He relies too heavily on Wynton Marsalis' narrative, but aside from that it's almost perfect.
That's his thing. He always chooses the most conservative (in an intellectual, not political sense) narratives for his little picture shows. You can look at him as a Court Historian. Like Doris Kearns Goodwin.
We need more Howard Zinns.
There are things I admire about my personal myth of Abraham Lincoln. He was miserable, had a miserable wife, a miserable son, a miserable union, had frequent migraine headaches, and was so ugly he had to grow a beard, which a lot of us can identify with. Yet he continued on and did his best.
Lincoln is the American Jesus, he was crucified in Ford theatre for America's sins. He's one of the most mythologized people in history, which means he's a screen on which people project their fear and desire.
Or something like that.
This is the thread where we post Todd in the Shadows videos that make fun of Taylor Swift, right?
I'm still recovering over Filthy's break up with Taylor Swift. :(
You either die a teenage pop country singer/songwriter or live long enough to become an overproduced overexposed pop spectacle.
