[DonkeyCigars 143]

Wow, I guess I should have seen this turn of events coming. Signs and wonders; what's next? You guys gonna tell me JFK was actually a good president?

Fill in RR for George Washington, Thomas Jefferson-- heck any of the founding fathers then, right? Using your logic?

Relax, snowflake. Though I will point out that some historians have cast doubt on Crispus Atticks being the first person injured at the Boston Massacre, because some people don't never wanna give a brother no respect.

Is it racist to celebrate the 4th of July? Your questioning of the word "away" in my sentence seems to suggest you think that day is already here, in the present. A situation where others, like Beau Vine and Walden, think it's so absurd and irrational as to be laughed at, you are saying is actually a reality?

It is already here for some people. It has been for a long time. 

[RomaVicta 30,087]

Donkey Cigars,

When you name Reagan as among the great presidents, what achievement comes to mind? He happened to be president when the long-standing bi-partisan effort to win the Cold War came to fruition. 

What did he do? Best I can figure is that he made everybody feel good about being American with no self-reflection whatsoever.

Setting in motion the reversal of the nanny state that FDR ushered in, crippling the population's ability to be self-serving and independent, as well as enabling a more meritocratic philosophy of lower taxes and and a push for more individualism in the creation, growing/stewardship and management of wealth.

I find it highly ironic that "reversing the nanny state" created a more robust nanny state.  Good job, Ronald.

I still can't believe that Americans elected a failed businessman for President of the United States. Really makes you reconsider American exceptionalism.

See - decades of hearing this from Rush and other lying assholes has taught him the White GOP Reagan Catechism.

Sort of insulates him from facts or stats. Just make sweeping statements while in the company of people buying this same shit, and nod at each other in agreement right before hitting the Trump boat in front of you.

When America elected trump to be the president it was a serious eye opener how unexceptional it actually was and is. Need to overcome that.

And the ultimate end result would be a fascist state resulting from a January 6, 2021 insurrection, which luckily and thankfully failed. Hey but at least some people made some money in the stock market along the way as we watched Rome burn. I’d tell you to stop being so ignorant but your only purpose here is to troll so why bother.

i'm not saying it's racist...but it did just occur to me that i doubt most Native Americans celebrate it, at least not the same way/reason. or Thanksgiving for that matter. i mean... why would they? 🤔

Using the state to round people up, and to take over business seems pretty fascist to me.

And I’m sincerely sorry for the derail, but when you ask direct questions I try and be as forthcoming and direct as possible because at the end of the day if I’m discussing something I either have an intellectual curiosity and am asking questions or learning something or I have a position and point or view that I standby and will discuss or both.

Which brings me back to the humor of David Dennison implying celebrating the 4th of July is racist and then soft shoeing when realizing his people don’t agree and think it ridiculous and that, outside of the most woke Twitter, that position is still a bridge too far in 2021.

Nobody thinks July 4 is racist. Plenty of people think that republicans are dumbasses though and those Republican dumbasses think that people are cancel culturing July 4 because those republican dumbasses are in fact racist dipshits. 
 

I just spent July 4 in trump country and the n word was flying around like you wouldn’t believe. That and the Trump flags. 
 

You would have felt at home if you were not just a troll.

Your boy DD said it was racist to people though. And not sure what your personal inclination and proclivity to spend leisure time with avowed racists using the n word is, but it sounds like a personal problem and one you shouldn’t be projecting on to others who don’t spend their time with racists and at racists gatherings like you apparently do.

Yes you only troll here. The only difference now is for some reason you have switched from being a reasonable sounding troll to just being an asshole. Maybe you want to get crowd banned. Hell if I know your dumbass goals here.
