Once he was shot, he became much more left-leaning
I needed that explanation like I need a hole in the neck.
Hey, I just want to recognize that this guy hasn't said anything racist in months. Good job buddy, keep it up!
A reformed professional asshole
Of all his quotes, I like this one best:
“Akhh-kkkhhhhh, aggkkgghhhh, gllghlllkh!”
He did lean left in the end.
Hard to say, he was leaning left but he was also wearing a red shirt last I saw of him. I guess he made his own path. Instead of going left or right, he went 6 feet down.
He was a pain in the neck.
”Trans rights are human rights."
He said that, right?
Imagine being pissed off about a second holiday in the summer.
imagine being pissed off about race
I run very slowly, so foot races piss me off!
if you type, you’re a typist
if you race, you’re a…

We have two summer holidays and one "based on race" because the one "based on race" recognizes the time Union soldiers arrived on the Texan shores and forcibly freed a group of people subjugated based on their race--it just didn't happen to fall on July 4th.
The two holidays recognize two completely different things it doesn't matter when in the damn year it occurred.
It's only "based on race" because slavery was based on race. It's the end of slavery, not "Black people day."
That's like saying July 4th is "all about the British."
Technically...Juneteenth isn't in the summer...
Oh, you're playing with fire trying to be pedantic like this. You're using the astronomical definition which starts on the solstice (some astronomical definitions treat the solstice as the center of the season, but starting at the solstice is the predominant one). Multiple countries use the meteorological definition which includes every day within three months (June, July, August in the Northern Hemisphere). The US has no overarching legal definition, but for example, US maritime law gives a batshit definition of summer as "April 1 to October 31" and winter as all the rest. And culturally in the US, summer tends to start at Memorial Day (e.g. this is when outdoor public pools usually start opening).
There's no "technically" here, or if there is, you're just as right as you are wrong. If anything, given a cultural holiday, it's arguably most "correct" to assess it using the cultural definition.
Yeah, it's 1-3 days before it and now that's how I'll remember when summer starts
We can't have summer until we remember the injustice of slavery and the freeing of a quarter million slaves in one of the last bastions of that deplorable practice
Oh no, it's still happening. It's how BYD cars are made.
It's still how most things are made. Stateside, the prison system is the only slavery left but worldwide, there are many examples still going strong. It's nowhere near as prevalent as it was though
Why are you still giving space to his views? I definitely don’t agree with his worldview but he hated enough alive, maybe his viewpoint should stop being perpetuated.
It's important to remind everyone that he was a piece of shit. Republicans are whitewashing his history.
Funfact about dead people. They are fucking dead. The only reason to bring them up is because you agree with them. Full fucking stop no fucking argument.
If they are a piece of shit leave them to rot and forget about them. They are FUCKING DEAD.
Apply that same principle to people like Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Adolf Eichmann. The reason normal people get worried about people in power today is because they were taught about the crimes and twisted ideologies that started WWII and the Holocaust. Burying it and pretending they never existed will give people like that the opportunity to rise again, such as our recently tracheotomised center of attention in this post.
Are they though?
At the very least, no one is doing it here. I'd rather have a rebuttal comment if/when a post that tries to do that, rather than seeing these posts
Who is this?
Dead fascist. More to come.
Some dead, inconsequential dude with really bad takes about pretty much everything.
Rush Limbaugh clone #208
This guy is such a pain in the neck
