Tucker Carlson said something racist/stupid???
wasn't one of the guys known for decoding these qanon "codes" caught on a livestream actually making up and posting those codes on whatever 4chan or 8chan where they are supposedly posted?
George Floyd’s brothers speech today was pretty good. He called for accountability for police actions, etc.
Hopefully it doesn’t fall on deaf ears.

‘I stopped believing in God when I found out it was just dog backwards.’
They went politicial? Sellouts
Dog bless.
In Nadsat God is 'Bog'. Makes you think.
Private aviation. Crop sprayers, firefighters, oil rig helicopters are all highly dangerous areas of flying.
Airliners are far safer but still they crash worldwide at a rate of about one a month, though most are small aircraft in dodgy parts of the world.
Someone compares not realizing RATM is political to not realizing Animal Farm is political, but there are a lot of people out there who think Animal Farm and 1984 are criticisms of socialism and defences of capitalism.
Moor Lane (Old Mitchells offices)Which property is that, Suits?In Lancaster?
Yup, mind bending. The far-right also uses quotes from 1984 and Animal Farm in their fight against "PC gone too far!", which is funny because Orwell hanged out with marxists and anarchists who actually shot nazis, instead of arguing with them on Twitter.
So apparently Christopher Columbus was a genocidal maniac? I did not know that.

Is this sarcasm or genuine surprise?
Very good.
He was a literal antifa social justice warrior.
Sarcasm. I remember reading horrifying stuff about how he treated the indigenous population in some instances. Same goes for lots of other shady individuals whose statues are still adoring many town squares up to this day.
"Gone with the Wind" pulled by HBO Max.
White House staff apparently heard "Frankly my dear I don't give a damn" from the oval office!

Temporarily pulled, it will be back with some context.
Many on the right (going by Twitter) are doubling down. The music is actually about rejecting the global elite.
Is there proof of this or are they just presuming because he is Victorian that he must be?
Ah cool. What's the refurb into if you don't mind me asking?
Confession time - I have never watched Gone With The Wind.
Heard Paw Patrol was cancelled. I am outraged!

From his wiki page...
Tim Jeal, who wrote the biography Baden-Powell, argued that Baden-Powell's distrust of communism led to his implicit support, through naïveté, of fascism. Baden-Powell admired Benito Mussolini early[when?] in the Italian fascist leader's career. In 1939 Baden-Powell noted in his diary: "Lay up all day. Read Mein Kampf. A wonderful book, with good ideas on education, health, propaganda, organisation etc. – and ideals which Hitler does not practise himself."[11]:550
Plenty. His behavior in Africa was appalling. These days he would have been shot instantly. But racists were cool those days. All for the Empire and up yours and that sort of thing you know.
Watching a bunch of white (bitter) conservative Poolites losing their sh*t is quite entertaining,mind.
Any links? I would luv it. Simply luv it.
The actress that played the nanny was the first black woman to win an Oscar. Surely that alone makes it an important film for black history?
I’ve heard that there is a possibility that only fools and horses and Dads army may get pulled in the UK too.
Ok the world has now lost it:
Defund the Pawlice
Will there be any statues left?
Genuine question.
Genuine question.
The article seems to be based on a straw man. She admits as much by opening it telling us people made jokes on twitter in response to a tweet from Paw Patrol.
She using that along with a quote from a producer of Monk to construct the article.
No one is really coming for Paw Patrol
This is going purely based on TV tropes, but isn’t NASCAR hugely popular among those confederate flag waving redneck types? Glad to see this.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the origin of this is reductio ad absurdum by right wing trolls looking to ridicule the movement and turn those sympathetic neutrals into critics.
Honestly it’s truly hilarious watching them meltdown over an artist/sport/institution when they realize “wait, you aren’t an outright racist dickhead like myself?”
Twitter and reddit have been full of this sort of tears and I’m really enjoying it.
