pwned all those blue state librulz …. In Georgia
Not sure how they expected to fight a Boogeyman and it not be a complete waste of every cent used... I guess in the case of "woke" they're actually fighting against respect and decency though. Weird thing to try to remove.
Left-wing voters: [Conservative politician] will do [bad thing]
Right-wing voters: [Conservative politician] will not do [bad thing], quit fear-mongering
...
Conservative politician (newly-elected): As part of our agenda, we will do [bad thing]
Left-wing voters: See! They will do [bad thing]!
Right-wing voters: No, they will not actually do [bad thing], it's just banter
...
Conservative politician (having done [bad thing]): I am pleased to announce we have just done [bad thing]
Left-wing voters: See! They just did [bad thing]!
Right-wing voters: [Bad thing] is good, actually
...
(2 years after [bad thing] was done)
Right-wing voters: It's [other party]'s fault that [bad thing] happened, I need to vote for [conservative politician] so that they can fix [problem caused by bad thing].
Correct.
Now. Who can tell us why media literacy is practically unheard of?
That's why they want to make education private, and kill public schools. Just like after the Hiatian slave rebellion, they know denying people education works.
Nothing new under the sun.
This hurts to read because it is so accurate.
It hurts me to read because it's cyclical.
49% (at least) always defend the party in power, no matter what they do.
Thomas county GA voted 61% trump in 2024
Imagine the surprise among Thomasville’s City Fathers when they learned that nearly $20 million in federal grantsfora new health clinic, upgrades to the city’s wastewater system and other community work were deemed too “woke” to merit Washington’s help.
The leopards are feasting!
Looks like face is back on the menu, kittycats!
What's the slogan these brainwashed morons love to chant? Fuck around, find out?
Something about bootstraps and work will set you free?
even the non-pokemon fans can say it with me now: "IT HURT ITSELF IN ITS CONFUSION"
Instead, that $20,000,000 will go into some billionaire's pocket as a tax cut.
I really hate this country.
We burning it all down yet? I'm just waiting.
