To Maine? Try: the whole world. All you have to do to see things that way is assume everything would be perfect without white people, assume that white people have not acquired anything legitimately, and believe that some white people need to stop white supremacists because only white people have the ability to stop white people(…because other people are incapable of doing things…but not in a bad way; just a noble savage way).
That sounds racist…but it’s actually anti-racist or something.
It gets interesting about six minutes in. Apparently, none of the languages spoken by black Africans have a word for maintenance. Because they don’t have the concept.
That’s why you don’t hear a peep about open calls for racial extermination in South Africa from their elected politicians.
They believe the white Afrikaners ought to be dispossessed and exterminated.
You know, to stop racism.
Dazed and confused was the only “stoner comedy” I liked
If you can call it that… it’s about a bunch of high school students in the late 70s on their last day of school
There is pot smoking (when I was in HS almost everyone smoked pot at least once) but it’s hardly the main focus of the story like cheech and Chong
I should also add that pot has changed since I was in HS which wasn’t even that long ago. 7 years ago it wasn’t uncommon for me to have to pick out seeds/stems from something that was probably 5-10% thc tops
I was in Colorado earlier this year and found the legalization of pot has created ultra potent weed that is nothing like what I took in high school. It’s like the entire market there caters to the top 1% of pot smokers who can tolerate that kind of product and there is little in between fkr everyone else
It sounds like you need a good connection for schwag weed imported from Mexico in densely-compacted bricks.
That’s okay. Afrikaners have the racist K-instead-of-C just like the Klan.
Some of the legal weed sold in the U.S. is brought from Mexico and many of the “Legal” grow ops in the U.S. are run by cartels.
I don’t smoke anymore
I understand what people are getting at now when they say “this isn’t your fathers stuff… this is a whole new beast”
In Australia that “Schwag” is called bush here
As in some guy goes into the bush to plant his crop, leaves it there for 3-5 months and comes back to harvest
I’m not a doctor but I’d put money down that stuff isn’t as harmful as the stuff sold in stores
I think pot should be legal… but not in the “there’s a weed dispensary on every second block right next to schools etc”
But in the “grow your own bush weed and make clubs like in Spain where peoole can imbibe strictly in private”
Public consumption would result in penalties
They will soon all be starving - Zimbabwe 2.0.
Warlords aren’t the best at resource management or distribution. There are a lot of better choices.
Racis’
It’s the same playbook they are running here, and the same playbook Socialists everywhere have run, including National Socialists. Promote a race-based and/or class-based historical narrative to justify the taking of other people’s stuff.
It always leads to this crap.
“Kill the Boer, the farmer.”
And have been for generations.
Trump makes a compelling case against birthright citizenship, which is before the Supreme Court today.
Someone needs to tell him about all of the Irish who were pouring into the US at that time.
One of the fun things about being a capitalist dissident in the midst of a socialist revolution is all of the unexpected secret friends you make. I’ve had politicians, well-known (for Maine) reporters, and prominent people in the community reach out to me privately to thank me for my essays and express their fear at even so much as “liking” any of what I write.
The bad part about that is that it is good evidence for how effective the ideological enforcement campaign has been in Maine. If the choice is between making your opinion known and keeping your job, people tend to do whatever is necessary to continue their form of sustenance. The threat is VERY real in Maine.
To be clear, my public writing is a bit tighter than my screeds on T-Nation over the years. It has no profanity and very few tasteless jokes.
I’m thinking about getting a #resistance tattoo that would match my growing tapestry of Tulsi and 2 Jar forever sentiments I have drawn all over my body.
Dude is a Knickerbocker, I’m sure he knows all about Irish immigrants.
What happened at the time to the offspring of slaves? Like, what was their social status?
How does this compare to the offspring of free people (irish, german, etc)?
It’s a question of birthright citizenship. Were the children of Irish immigrants, born here, citizens at birth? Was that wrong?
Right. And with birthright citizenship, you are born a free citizen and entitled to all of the protections of the constitution.
As a slave, and without codified birthright citizenship- the children born of slaves were also slaves, with no freedom or protections of the constitution.
