For once, I agree with the Demented Fool

Glad you made a meme of it, Elvis! I could not believe he actually said that but it is clear in the video that he did. Joe is such an embarrassment...his supporters should have some shame but they DO NOT.

Thanks vBackman, much appreciated! Sometimes I think his supporters are as brain dead as he clearly is.

No no you see, they were talking about the auto industry

Nice try.

What are you referring to as dark humor?

I’m just pulling your leg, don’t worry. No ill will towards you

Well, all I was going to say, IF you were talking about your first post, was that I don't think it was dark. Feel free to have all the ill will, or if you're in the mood, good will towards me that you'd like.

Yeah it wasn’t, I’m not that good at sarcasm. and frankly, while we don’t agree on much, I can respect you since you seem like you care a lot about this country

I have a feeling we might agree on more than you think. But we definitely disagree on a lot. And there's nothing wrong with that.

Pardon the expression, but I agree! The media may try to separate just into little social bubbles, but respectful interaction with the other side shows us that we are not as different as we may expect

I haven't changed one bit. The exception being I voted for Trump 2x.

So apparently that's all it takes for neo-libs to try and cancel, dehumanize, verbally berate, physically intimidate me, etc. Not by you, of course.

But living in Taxifornia means I have to keep my head on a swivel. The woke are everywhere... we have to keep our heads until this woke crazy blows over. (have you seen Full Metal Jacket?) imgflip.com/i/6ed5gk

A lot of truth there, Elvis. BUT I have seen a ton more leftist hatred for America since you made that meme 2 years ago.

How obvious does it have to be when the idiots in charge open our borders and pocketbooks to newcomers with no regard to American citizens, our values and our traditions?

There is no gray here anymore. Pure EVIL coming from the left. I am not so easy to go along and get along because I can see the end result and that is, the annihilation of America.

"This woke craze" may not actually blow over. It has embedded itself and is a cancer to our country. It is extremely sad for me to see and to entertain any of their stupidity is in a great degree a way of trying to 'placate' them. You cannot please people who are emotional wrecks and quite simply out of their minds.

To be fair, this kind of thing does happen in both sides. One side makes a critique of the other (usually in bad faith, but sometimes there is valid criticism), then next thing you know it’s like someone made a declaration of war, and the extremists on both sides (I hesitate to use the terms “woke” and “anti-woke” given they’ve been reduced to pretty much “people I don’t like”, but you know what I mean by extremists) are up in arms, right up until the next thing happens and just like that, the previous thing never happened. And while it is generally good advice to move on from controversy, to merely forget past transgressions is unproductive, in my mind.

And yes, you shouldn’t be harassed for what you say, no one should. If someone believes what you’re saying is BS, then they have every right to call you out on such, just as you have every right to call out their BS. But threats and dehumanizing the other side is something I cannot condone, no matter who does it.
