Anyone wants to start an online movement to rename Pittsburgh?
The only city in the US named after an UK PM, Pitt the Elder aka Earl of Chatham - I guess if we package it nicely we can get both woke imbeciles and the “Freeeeeedom” crowd on board…
Not to mention that the city still deviously promotes the Earl’s colors of black and gold on its sports teams’ jerseys.
CANCEL PITTSBURGH!
Madison has been a messed up city for awhile.
I grew up less than an hour east of there and my brother went to Wisconsin and still lives in a suburb.
The majority of WI is opposed to the loud millennials in the capital.
Thems fighting words! No steel for you Nancyboy!
Wait, we don’t really do that any more.
No Google…
Damn, there are way to many search engines.
Fuck it. Pedutoville. 
Where a bicycle built for two is just waiting for you!
I think this is a good point, but it basically comes down to the definition of true revolution. The US did completely change who was in power. We just didn’t necessarily throw out all of the systems and legal precedents that came from the English system.
That said, the American Revolution is definitely an example of the upper middle class wanting a bigger share of the pie and throwing off the upper or nobility class. The Declaration of Independence was written and signed mostly by rich landowners and lawyers, upset about taxes on their tea and playing cards. Not people struggling in poverty.
It was still white men.

Well, things are escalating… No history of being racist, but evokes the feeling of racism.
'…yet it admits that the phrase first appeared in 1926 – more than 60 years after slavery was abolished in the U.S. Further, the term wasn’t widely used until after World War II. CNN acknowledges that even though “it’s unclear whether the term is rooted in American slavery on plantations, it evokes that history.” ’
‘The outlet does the same thing for the Masters Tournament, a golf tournament for “masters” – meaning, the best players in the sport. The name originated in 1934, long after slavery was abolished, and was adopted in 1939.’
I’ve seen this for a little while now (couple months or so) here and there…doesn’t matter where I see it, it’s fuckin’ retarded
Going forward I’ll be referring to my degree as a non PhD graduate degree. I hope that helps.
Then how could it still be…
But somehow it…
And it took almost 100 years for someone to realize that.
I have a solution for these non-etymological knowing millennials, just use:
I lol’d … it was an incredulous lol but still … Ecstacy of Gold is a damn masterpiece and they go with that … lol
You have got to be shitting me. I want sanity back. Let’s go back to 2015.
It literally takes 10 seconds to Wiki that! Fuck…Just one more reason to go back 5 years. And we’d still have Bowie, Prince, Glenn Frey, Leonard Cohen, Leon Russel, Charlie Daniels (today! RIP), Greg Lake, Keith Emerson, Tom Petty, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Chris Cornell, Gregg Allman, Aretha Franklin, Prodigy, Dick Dale, Matt “Guitar” Murphy, Lemmy…
Lol. Pretty sure Pence was on a fundraiser that said something alone the lines of I convinced my father (meaning Trump) that was taken probably from one of the kids who are getting rich off the Presidency and doing all sorts of jobs they aren’t qualified to do.
Fuck it send the space force.
Preferably out of a cannon.
…into a brick wall 5 ft away
A vote for Joe Biden will ensure, at the very least, tacit approval of the continuation of this kind of nonsense.
When you’re dealing with people already distrustful of academia, scientific authority, etc., don’t politicize a virus that doesn’t give a crap about the righteousness of your cause. My goodness, the virus has (and will continue) taken for more black lives in a year than cops will.
Health experts interviewed by the NYT admitted that condemning one protest and supporting another based on the grievance of the protesters at least appears hypocritical, if not evidence of a blatant double-standard.
“Instinctively, many of us in public health feel a strong desire to act against accumulated generations of racial injustice,” Brown University Epidemiology Professor Mark Lurie said. “But we have to be honest: A few weeks before, we were criticizing protesters for arguing to open up the economy and saying that was dangerous behavior … I am still grappling with that.”
Nicholas A. Christakis, professor of social and natural science at Yale, warned against officials and health experts making moral distinctions between the anti-lockdown and BLM protests. He pointed to other activities that health experts forbid during the pandemic, such as visiting loved ones in the hospital, which caused significant emotional stress.
Guess it depends on who is visiting Mt. Rushmore.
I’ve come to despise the “Orange man bad” crowd as much as the bad orange man himself.
Rich outspoken black man freely bemoans our white supremacist country…
Makes even more money…
Rofl. People fall for this stuff?
