  • Also, gorsh, I wonder what Juneteenth and MLK Jr. day have in common that Republicans and only Republicans dislike so much?

    I find it simply hilarious that, even still, now that their mask has been completely removed, you still have conservatives and Republicans trying that age-old chestnut about how it is really the Democrats that are the racists, because Lincoln was a Republican, and because of the Dixiecrats. And trying to yadda yadda something about Robert Byrd, etc.

    All while they go apoplectic about “woke”, DEI, CRT and “political correctness”, etc…

    Of course, entirely ignoring everything that had happened in more recent times, like the Southern Strategy, and the Civil Rights movement, etc…there was some Republican idiot on the DP comment section that even kept rejecting the Southern Strategy as fake news for some contrived reason that only made sense in his head.

    It was always so goddamned pathetic, just like their attempt to tie socialism to Nazis merely because of the label, even if it’s easy to point out the fact that the Nazis targeted unions, Communists and socialists.

    But the fact that they are still trying this nonsense is beyond pathetic.












  • Oh, for sure. I grew up in a deeply red part of the country, and if you don’t already know, I assure you that there are many conservatives that think rape is, and should be, part of the “correctional” prison complex. That if you commit a crime, even something relatively minor, if you don’t go to get prison and get raped, well, then, they personally feel you cheated or that the system isn’t working quite properly. Because prison is supposed to be punishment, and obviously, that means rape, I guess. And other forms of violence.

    Again, that’s for male cishet prisoners. Unless you are “manly” enough to avoid it, I guess. Anyone else - they deserve it.

    I’m quite sure that for trans/intersex their thoughts are even more horrible.
