Steve Benson for June 05, 2023

Would someone please explain to this foreigner how a country that’s always talking about being all about personal freedom and liberty can pass laws that specifically target one of your minorities to inhibit and outlaw their behavior?

I would have used a hyena or a vulture instead of a lion. just an observation.

Notice that the bigmouth on the right (also “on the right”) has apparently already consumed its full helping of Q?

Steve, why do you defame the beautiful and noble lion here?

Now, if this was Trump’s big mouth…

Every June 6th I watch ‘The Longest Day’. If I had my way, it would be a requirement in schools to do so as part of any Civics course.

NeoconMan, the answer is that we cannot. We cannot explain how the GOP is restricting rights and freedoms, taking away rights and freedom, stacking the SCOTUS, and suppressing voter rights, while accusing the Democrats of doing those things and getting 35% of the population to believe it. The parallels between the U.S. today and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s, Hitler’s rise to power, are frightening. And the more Republicans that get elected, the closer we come to Nazi Germany.

Whatever happened to live and let live?

Before casting the next stone, I wish anti-LGBTQ+ folks would ask themselves how someone else’s being LGBTQ+ has ever hurt them.

See American history: 1619 to present. See European history: 40,000 B.C. to present.

Because it’s perverse and harmful to children

Democrats are reverting to type – founding a neo- Old South. California is the new South Carolina. Add, Oregon, Washington state and Hawaii to complete the set. New York state and the New England states are the new border states like Delaware, Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland were. The old south possessed a small extremely wealthy class, a tiny middle class, involuntary servitude and large numbers of whites and free blacks in poverty. The cotton plantation owners and cotton trade factors such as Lehman Brothers, made up the wealthy class. The small middle class included doctors, lawyers, larger shop owners and a few others that catered to the wealthy. Involuntary servitude labor depressed the wages of most others. Now, oligarch donors understand that hiring cheap labor is more cost effective than involuntary servitude . Involuntary servitude workers only work enough to keep from being punished and must be cared for. Peons are cheaper. California’s oligarch class are mostly in IT, show business and a few industries. Lawyers and doctors, who cater to the aforementioned, form the upper middle class. The wealthy oligarchs use imported labor to depress IT wages at one end and unskilled labor to keep their mansions and well-manicured lawns – mimicking involuntary servitude of old. Which depresses the wages of a dwindling middle class. Add, rising taxes and the middle class becomes poor or leaves the state. Instead of the old KKK, Democrats employ thoroughly corrupt BLM and AntiFa aka the Black Bloc for more violent exercises

What are they proud of………malfunctioning?

Here your answer: REPUBLICANS
