    Republicans are already doing just that. You want a great example? Look at Florida and Texas.

  2. almost 2 years ago on Gary Varvel

    Not really. But you can keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. The reality is that you support tyranny and fascism. In truth, it is the Republicans who are doing that. Why? Because they can no longer win a fair election based on issues and haven’t since at least 1988. How do I know this? It comes from their speeches, ramblings, who they openly support, and policies. The vast majority in this country supports many of the policies advocated by the Democratic Party. Most of the populace in this country is progressive and advocates for some socialistic programs.

    You wouldn’t know the truth if it walked up tp you and slapped you in the face. Reality. You should really try it sometime.

    There are some really dumb people in this country, many of whom are posting here and are desperately trying to spin the draconian and tyrannical laws passed in Florida as well as believing that having the right to free speech means that you are absolved of the consequences. Moreover, they seem to think that it is okay to call people whatever the hell they want and if it offends them, so what, they have a right to say it. People call them out on it and they get all offended and claim that they are living under the curtain of tyranny and oppression. What many of these posters need to to do is live in a place like Stalinist Russia, Maoist China, or Nazi Germany only then would they learn what real oppression and tyranny is. (Spare me the argument that these were examples of socialism. These regimes were not socialist, nor were they communist, and certainly were not Marxist. Course you would know that if you even had a remote clue as to what these words actually meant and how they are all mutually exclusive and ideologically opposed to what was actually practiced in those countries above. Course you could pick up a book and read about these various political ideologies and how they are different. However, you won’t. Why? Because you find them boring, unimportant, and are too cognitively lazy to even bother, preferring to have others tell you what they are. Moreover, you are afraid of anything that threatens your echo chamber, of being wrong and terrified of the truth: that you were and still are being conned by the Republican Party and its various propaganda outlets. Lastly, you are also terrified of accepting responsibility for society and its upkeep. You are paranoid, ignorant, selfish, conceited, narrow-minded, gullible, racist, fascist, misogynistic, lazy, and clueless. It is a sorry state to live your life in. I only wish you were not so adamant abot pushing the rest of this country in the abyss of fascism a place that we will most likely never climb out of.

    Okay, answer me this question: Why should it cost me nearly two thousand dollars for one credit per semester?

  6. almost 2 years ago on Michael Ramirez

    If they do what you are proposing, college becomes the exclusivity of the political, social, and economic elite. Although it is becoming that way now with even obtaining financial aid out of the reach of a lot of people. People like you, me, and everyone else will become peons to them. What little is left of the middle class, would be obliterated. Here is a better solution: make college affordable to all once more. Lower the costs of tuition and you will have more people going to school. It is really that simple.

    Worked for the money? Lol. You don’t really and truly believe that do you?

    Actually, it has been scientifically proven. Other animal species have exhibited homosexual and transgendered behaviors. Course, you would know this if you read anything beyond what is in your echo chamber.

  9. about 2 years ago on Al Goodwyn Editorial Cartoons

    How thoughtfully hypocritical of you. You stand up and support a person, party, and ideology that is the direct anthesis of everything Christ stood for and taught.

  10. about 2 years ago on Steve Breen

    Truth. It is the truth. It does not simply go away simply because you refuse to recognize and acknowledge it. Racism and white superiority are what this country was founded upon. You really don’t think Jefferson was referring to everyone when he said “all men were created equal,” do you? Moreover, if you doubt my argument read Jefferson’s Notes on the Stats of Virginia. It is practically a blueprint for racism and racist ideologies. In addition, read about the Chinese Exclusion Act and the Quota System and how immigrants in this country have been treated since time immemorial. Heck, Jefferson and other planters thought that you couldn’t manumit slaves unless you shipped them back to Africa, many of whom, by the American Revolution were born here and therefore were not African. At least Patrick Henry was honest enough to admit that blacks also couldn’t be freed because there wealth and social standing was predicated on it. Grow up and look at reality before it sweeps you, me, and everyone else into the dustbin of history and rendering us as nothing more than a failed attempt at self-government, another failed republic wrecked on the shoals of greed, jealousy, ignorance, racism, false patriotism, white supremacy, white nationalism, and authoritarianism.
