"Diversity is our strength" does not only mean racial and ethnic diversity. It means diversity of life experience, diversity of sexual orientation, diversity of ability, diversity of income, diversity of romantic orientation, diversity of skill, diversity of opinion, among many manyothers things. #tolerance
When you see the name Monroe, do you pronounced it "munROW" or "MAHNrow"?
Most Americans still live under de jure segregation.
De jure segregation includes so much more than the blatant "whites only" by law type of residential zoning and redlining.
WW2 was terrible for politics and the state of American government, but dont even get my started on WW1!
It doesnt sound like you are the Progressive Era type of progressive at all (which is a good thing) because standardization and centralization of everything was pretty much the central pillar of this era of progressivism, hence all the actions taken by governments at every level during this time.
Progressives of this era may have nominally supported workers rights, but they also were also warhawks and ardent imperialists
If you don't think that diversity is our strength and think that standardization and centralization are preferable to diversity and freedom of choice, we are definitely going to have to agree to disagree 😅
In another post you said you were a progressive of the late 19th/early 20th century type, which conflicts directly with being a bitcoiner.
This is actually worse. After reading the history, I'd take a modern "progressive" over a late 19th century, early 20th century progressive any day, and that's saying something
Degraded us from what? The lukewarm, milquetoast politics of the "greatest" and boomer generations?
Strengthening political opinions aren't the problem. The party system is.
Happy Ostara everyone! It may still be cold where I live but the flowers are out and spring has sprung. Longer days are upon us ☀️ #pagan #spirituality #wheeloftheyear #grownostr
My apologies. I'm not following. You are going to have to be more specific
Been on my list for a while, finally reading it. Infuriating, but interesting. #history #bookstr
I'm not of the opinion that this is s direct signalling mechanism anymore. I can't speak for 20 years ago, but I think now unnatural hair colors are much more common because they are more widely accepted by society. Where, previously only punks and queers had unnatural hair colors, now, depending on the are, its almost mainstream. I think they only real connection to support for human rights is the correlation that socially conservative folks tend to be less likely to follow new fashion trends then socially liberal and left wing folks.

Its been over 2 years since the last time I shaved completely clean. And even then I grew it back out. I haven't gone more than a few days with no beard at all in probably 5 or 6 years
