I miss the good ole days of 2021 when MAGA cared about due process after J6 protesters were being hunted down and held in prison without trial and when they cared about free speech. 4 years later and they seem to have forgotten all about that. The authoritarian measures they support that are being used against immigrants now will certainly be used against them when under a Dem admin.

its bad enough that far too many people are willing to give up their freedoms in order to ‘stick it to the other side’. But what I just cannot comprehend is that none of these people care one bit that their children, grandchildren, etc will never even know what its like to have any of these freedoms.

Zowe Smith Interview - COVID Surveillance, Palantir & The Transition To Total Information Awareness.

Oh yea, the first Iraq War and the Rodney King incident were all around that time as well so those affected me as well in these matters.

I think I actually had a good history teacher. Was in gifted/ap so got a whole different education. And to be honest, I really credit Public Enemy for some of my early realizations. Got into them in middle school and obvious one can pick some things in their lyrics. And most importantly, my mother taught from an early age to always question things and to not just believe things because an adult says it. So all I the hell I put her through growing up was her own making😂

I know many will disagree, but for me, there has never been a more exciting player to watch when ge was in his prime. Wasnt even a Sixers fan, but watched their games quite often just cuz of him

Great book🫡

I had come to this conclusion in 10th grade. Just got done learning about the 3 European 'isms' in history class then one day while doing the pledge in homeroom, it occurred to me this is the exact type of thing that I would expect to be mandatory in Italy or Germany. Never did it again. Also occurred to me that the Federal Reserve and New Deal sounded exactly like sonething a Communist nation would do. I guess it can be said I became an anarchist that day which I had known about from my involvement in the punk /hardcore scenes. Never looked back.
