what the fuck are they going to ultimately say the underground railroad was? What will they say it was helping who escape? THIS WHOLE THING IS STUPID!
"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."
might be a bit pretentious to quote 1984 but boy, try telling me the right wing reality distortion field doesn't exist.
Not pretentious at all. This is the exact thing Orwell was warning about. Never a better time to quote it.
That's legitimately why the republicans want to rename the Gulf of Mexico
What do you mean "rename"? It's always been the Gulf of America.
"That's what Jesus called it. That's what my daddy called it. And it's worked out just fine, since..."
we have always been allied with eurasia. we have always been at war with east asia
Ouch, this physically hurt haha
These are the same folks that say the civil war was fought for "states rights".
They have no problem with ignoring details.
Soon you'll only get "Did you mean 'the subway'?" search results with "underground railroad".
It was a fun place people could pretend to be trains! Choo chooo!!
The Enola Gay dropped one tiny atom on Japan
Hey man, get with the times, that name makes Hesgeth angy
Enola still sounds a bit woman-y. Maybe replace it with something manly like Donald.
The Enola Gay becomes the Elon Straight!
Or, to be the correct amount of condescending and dehumanizing, the “Elon Normal.”
This fucking guy 😹
what did I do?
You know damn well what you did, guy.
No way would they put up anything that suggested someone could be trains.
To be replaced by "Harold Whiteman", a dapper man of Nordic ancestry, who helped white slaves escape from white slavery with the help of the friendly neighborhood watch organization, the KKK!
what are you talking about, the underground railroad has always been the 4/5 subway line in NYC that connects the Trump Building in Wall Street with the Trump Tower in 5th Ave, right?
As if that fuck would ever take the train
