    Reading up on American history was pretty simple. We the good guys. Everyone else bad.
    Immigrants bad until they become citizens then the next batch of immigrants bad.

    Bad history that soothes wing nuts is bad, but bad history that soothes liberals is good.

    Strong Animal Farm energy here guys.

    I mean, I’m the guy that pimped Nixonland until it became a cliche. But that book’s greatness is partly in its nuance, but more so IMO for how it ties disparate facets of that period together. So I’m all about understanding today as a result of the past.

    But this parody of wingnut history

    is equally stupid if it’s ironic as it is if it’s sincere.

    Yeah, here we go attacking me for a parody. But is it ?
    Ask the Irish. Ask the Italians. Tell me that books on American history. Well for example try the Adams bio. He should have been up for belated sainthood after that one.
    Your MO when you attack is a lot like Trump. Insults and projection.

    It’s a parody of wing nut history, which only talks about the good things and none of the bad things.

    Where can I place my bet on who/when they drop the n word? They're just dying to say it and only a matter of time.

    He was giving a thumbnail sketch of the sort of triumphalist, Whiggish American histories that previous generations were raised on.

    I don’t think much of Howard Zinn, but he wasn’t imagining that sort of narrative from the civics textbooks of his youth.

    You need to explain point by point where they went wrong, since it's your assertion that they are wrong.

    The mods are working to clean up the forum and keep nasty posts like Dave's at a minimum. It might be time to let someone in a position of authority know what he's been up to.

    Back in school I learned that if A=B and B=C, then A=C; not if A=B and B=C, then A cannot = C because they are totally different letters.

    Use the military against the enemy within
    The enemy within are far left Americans (no doubt including professors, given JD has said college professors are the enemy)
    The enemy within are Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff

    JD and his orange Nazi leader are clearly ok with using the military against Americans.

    The funny thing is they aren't even talking about the real far left. Just liberals and center Democrats.

    They'll nab up the far left too, no doubt. But how they describe folk is wild.

    He just wants to arrest the BLM protestors who "wrecked" the Lib'rul cities that Cons slag and don't live in. Or something. He now speaks Trump fluently.

    Fascism never runs out of enemies, that's for sure.

    How did Anakin say it? You're either with me or the terrorists?

    Wait, that was Bush the Dumber. Hey, you think George was trying to say something?

    My fav comment today after Vance stated that there are people on both side who say he’s the wrong pick.

    “Both sides” are NOT saying it was the wrong pick! R’s are. The D’s wonder what they did for god to bless them with a Sarah Palin with testicles candidate”
