Time to get rid of the Monarchy?

You sure love playing these semantic games, don't you?

It's not a semantic game. You said the capital city was in Washington. That is factually incorrect. I was correcting you.

Did you ever meet Layne Staley or Jerry Cantrell?

You, sir, have expressed Sentiments which I find to be utterly Absurd, Bizarre, and Unlikely. I question your Judgment and Measure of Wisdom.

See, now was that really so difficult?

Actually all queue-related jokes need to wait until the end of the Official Period of Royal Mourning. If you would please delete your post

What leftist 20 years ago was putting "preferred pronouns" in their email signature?
What leftist 20 years ago was advocating for drag queens in elementary schools?
What leftist 20 years ago advocated that every single rich country had to become a multicultural immigration nation?

too much Fox news on your screens.

Pronouns and gender are the Millennials next step in the long long struggle in the US for equality. I've watched it go from integration in the 50s-60s, anti war, through feminism, gay rights, Ms vs Mrs, gay marriage, Stewardess vs flight attendant, gay acceptance, etc. Now the fight is over gender and it will take a while. The internet has made the struggle both easier and harder, but in all cases more widespread. Pronouns are just an extension of the radical changes in language that have been ongoing for decades. 20 years ago, email signatures were hardly a thing. Now they are just another form of advertising.

The whole drag queens in school is a 2022 issue that the right likes to keep front and center in the news as if it is significant. It is red meat to folks like you who fear change and loss of significance in the modern world. LBGT people have been teaching kids for hundreds of years in the US (and elsewhere). This year the GOP has turned it into a political issue to stir folks like you into action before this year's election and in anticipation of 2024. Fear mongering that you seem to accept as some kind of new reality. One news story is just cherry picking things to try and make it some global change. The story is not about drag Queens; it is about using such a story to twist the public into embracing false a understanding of reality to gain votes.

The modern left is adapting to the new realities of a global world and the fact that unrest and war creates refugees and population movements. Climate change will create even more. Their push for improved equality across nations is the flip side of conservative, white Christianity's desire to turn back the clock to the mid 20th C when they were all powerful. Everyone wants their team to be the winner.

BTW, the Oath Keepers and 3 percenters militia groups that advocate violence and white supremacy both got started after Obama was elected president as a pathway to return the US to the path of oppressing non white people.

Would you rather live in His Majesty King Charles III's United Kingdom, or in the USA, a declining, decaying state.

Is this about the blacks being allowed outdoors after sundown?

But, sir, do think about the Consequences of such a Course of Action upon your Postcount!

I've actually never watched Fox News.

Essentially, many on the left have rejected religion, but they have a new surrogate religion, "equality". I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to say here, but just suffice it to say, I don't agree with the idea that a biological male can ever be a woman, or vice versa, and I don't think that all life choices need to be embraced. It's one thing to say "it's illegal to kill someone for unconventional choices in gender expression" (which I agree with), but it's completely another thing to say "everyone has to play along with gender ideology" (which I vehemently disagree with). And I don't want to get in trouble for my views, so I'm just going to leave it at that.

Pronouns are just an extension of the radical changes in language that have been ongoing for decades. 20 years ago, email signatures were hardly a thing. Now they are just another form of advertising.

But I don't like radical changes. The world was mostly okay 100 years ago. Yes, there is some nice new technology I wouldn't want to forsake, and I'm glad that women can vote now (although all of the feminist stuff after that, I would rather do without). I never saw what was so bad about words like "stewardess", nor would I marry a woman who refused to take my surname. And while I am opposed to frivolous wars, fighting against communism is never not worth it.

I have nothing against LGB teachers, or even LGB teachers displaying pictures of their families, talking about their spouses, etc...I don't think that kink/fetish stuff belongs in schools though, and drag is a fetish practice.

I am reaching, but I fall and the stars are black and cold, as I stare into the void of a mass-migration world.

BTW, the Oath Keepers and 3 percenters militia groups that advocate violence and white supremacy both got started after Obama was elected president as a pathway to return the US to the path of oppressing non white people.

Surely, there is some happy medium in between "The US becomes an ethnostate" and "the US accepts loads of refugees and becomes a minority-majority state that officially espouses multiculturalism and inclusion". The way white minorities are treated in countries they once controlled is rarely pleasant. I mean, look at South Africa, where politicians (like Malema) constantly incite hatred against whites, sing songs about killing whites (and a kangaroo court declared it's not hate speech), constantly try to seize white land without compensation, etc...and that's the best case scenario. What happened to the whites of Algeria? Of the erstwhile Rhodesia? Heck, what happened to the Indians of Kenya? The Eurasians of Vietnam?

Jerking off to Verwoerd won't bring him back

Sometimes we really do out do ourselves :/

there's still time for the US to elect him president

I despise Marx, his ideology, and his followers.

I would think despising the traditions of yet one more dead European man might be a bit overkill. He's interesting enough to read. Philosophers are supposed to make interesting brain-goo. By and large, that makes him having had been a decent enough one. Save the bile for people trying to produce fresh nightmares of quietly rotting flesh instead of reviling well-meaning mouldering bones?

 

[Uncle Paul]

No, no it's not.

Dr. Verwoerd's system was flawed, and unworkable in the long run. I'm glad it ended when it did. That said, he didn't deserve to be murdered, but neither did Mandela deserve to be imprisoned for so long.

BoJo gave up his US citizenship (sensible man), and thus, cannot become the leader of the US.

And the T?

Read between the lines.

His "teachings" brought nothing but misery and suffering to the world.

We can only wish that South Africa should follow the footsteps of Algeria or Vietnam, but alas, some things cannot be more than dreams.

Between "segregation is okay if it's private sector" and this you've already said more than enough.

But what of XYY, XXY, X0 people, for example?

Because, so far he's 100% in agreement with the Islamic Republic of Iran here.
