Given the left's history of unrestrained fascism....

In your own home, on your own front porch, watching the gestapo sweep
the otherwise peaceful and empty neighborhood streets when:

https://x.com/Bubblebathgirl/status/1823207131769643490

Gov. Tim Walz had his police use paintball guns to shoot Minnesota
residents if they broke curfew by being on their porches during CoViD

"Get in the house!

Light 'em up!"

That right there is as bad as Cruella Whitmer's fascism, and even a step
farther to complete Orwelian destruction of rights.

No. I accurately described the book, and I accurately described Vance, the
fascist, gushing over it.

that everyone should do at least 2-3 years in the uniformed services of
their country.

Skeeter must be high? I've heard of laughing at yourself, but he really
does it best.

Einstein should have been a corporal. We don't need E=mc^2. Or even
better, put Einstein on a chain gang in a jail making a quarter an hour.
Guy needs to build some muscle. Make the guy a perpetrator of stolen
valor because he told us what God does. Only the military can fubar
relativity improperly. You get people like Adam Sandler and Martin
Lawrence too dumb to be in public, yet they probably served they are so
goddamn stupid. The first thing you learn in the military is to prey on
the weak. You don't learn anything else. Pauly Shore taught me a bunch
of other tips like eating farts. This is when the guy goes to his
sleeping friend and farts in his face. It's enormously liberating and
certainly better to be an aggressor or else sleep on the top bunk. The
military will shape us all up. Christ wasn't in the military but he
wore a crown of thorns. Same difference. That suffering made him
stronger for when he got off the cross and is why he was able to double
jump into the sky. Don Henley sings, "That little punk never had to
serve" Because his grandson was walking on the fence and that's what
skeeter is always crying about sitting on a fence etcetera. In the
military you take on strong opinions... bred by someone else.

Well, that was easy.
