It is, unfortunately, the exact America I grew up with in Klan Kountry, Mississippi. And we have the equivalent of our local Boss Hogg Sherriff running the country.

I am related to a Founder of this country who financed the American Revolution and signed all the founding documentts .-- it is my heritage. I will be true to my word, will you:? Why are you giving me a hard time? You don't even know me.

I think that a lot, but then I look around at the ppl that I grew up in small town America with that are now MAGA. Did FOX News groom them into the deranged cult they have become? Or were they always racist, misogynistic, non Christ like Christians, & i just didn't know them well enough to know it?

One of my early memories is the McCarthy crap on tv. Friends got hosed down and bashed during civil rights and anti-war protests. There were govt scandals. John Birch Soc. Rampant racism. Difference now is all the enablers plus guns. And the robber barons that our parents had dealt with.

Charlton Heston says My God I am back I’m home all the time. We finally did it you maniacs. You blew it up. Damn you god damn you all to hell😉

And you’re not even lying I can remember I was like six or above and went to the drive-in to watch this. I am Planet of the apes years old😉

Looking into the movie since...: bsky.app/profile/dsja...

If you can not tell that it is beef or pork etc. do not buy it. There are meat products on the market that are not any I have ever eaten and the "meat" smells like human sweat. I'm sure the fact can be for a number of reasons none of which would be a good thing.

This was Summer, 1968. The US was buried in VietNam, racists were in full roar, and two of the most dynamic leaders of the decade were murdered, probably by the same evil slime that killed JFK.

Yep. I wasn't sure if anyone would remember that ending scene of Planet of the Apes, You win! Expect your prize of a non-existent kewpie doll in about 1-2 business years.

Unfortunately it might be the America you grew up with, after all. Too many unresolved legacies, and now a fully fledged corrupt, undemocratic, racist oligarchy. This is what happens when your leader is a Kremlin puppet, and "good" people didn't take action when they had the chance.

🎯🫡 Computer technician eh? Wish I was. Environmental political strategist who just hits the wall. Failing to figure out or break through after three times is enough to send me back out, unsolved. Most recently on how to save discussions. I can just taste what a great leap forward it could be... 🇺🇸

That's great. I think one of my problems and it might be your point is that very little is intuitive to me. At the same time, I did learn certain rules. Kind of like the situation with the country right now. Knowing them and following them helps to a point but then for some reason they don't apply

Perhaps not by your notion of time. Unless you are older than 100 years, THIS was already IN MOTION. THIS is no small plan. I have watched the GOP morphing in this direction since the 1960’s. Frogs in the “slowly heating beaker” are we.

Thank the lack of public knowledge surrounding the importance of forensic psychology ~ & how psychopathic #predators have gained Elected Offices over the last several generations. Because ya know.. "psychology isn't a hard science."🙄😒 Guess is only matters when serial killers are hunting us.. 🤷🏼‍♀️😒

As an immigrant, I believe I have the right to speak on this. When I came to the US, it was full of opportunities. While democracy and freedom have always been strongly advocated, I am pleased to see that the standard of living has been steadily improving, rather than remaining as it is now

Not even close to it. Things weren't perfect but the degree to which we've fallen in our standing in the world, is insane.. Trump has to be working for the Russians, but the number of people in this country willing to follow him down the drain is something else again.
