Lindsey Halligan, the White House official leading a review of the Smithsonian Institution, said you “can’t really talk about slavery honestly unless you talk about hope and progress” during a Newsmax appearance on Wednesday.
Right. Because nobody who ever fought fascism and tyranny ever had jobs, families, dreams, or anything to lose. Your national heroes were all just Disney characters who never had to risk anything because their victory was guaranteed and there were, of course, no potential consequences for getting it wrong.
You seem to be a bit mentally unhinged. If you have the energy, go fight the fight. I tried in my younger years and can’t keep up the fight. It’s up to the newer generation.
My country’s fine for now, thanks. Go sit on the sofa and rest. You’ve done enough, clearly- pat yourself on the back and just be as complacent as you can be.
Thanks! I think I have too.
Never has a comment sounded so painfully white. You represent “the opposition” perfectly. I’ll hold onto this comment.
