People say it that way where I live but don't spell it that way unless they mean a nice word for bullshit.

But if poor white Americans die they don't make more poor white Americans to support fascism and die in war.

You're probably right though.

Agreed 💯. I wasn't talking about her specifically, just the way words have changed meaning over time, specifically in the US.

I misread the title as South Africa so at first I was like what the fuck are you even talking about.

Actual answer: slavery, the civil war, then segregation, then Jim Crow, then redlining, and through all of it slave labor through prisons that disproportionately hold black people. All these things create generational poverty as well. Now it is seen in the attacks on woke and DEI. The United States is profoundly racist.

Pistol grip pump from Soldier of the Fortune, or of course the super shotty from Doom.

I just got a classic FPS tattoo from my friend I used to play these games with. I got something from the original Doom. I've always wanted a mushroom tattoo though and I think it will be the mushroom powerup from Rise of the Triad.

The split screen multiplayer where one person would be a monkey while the others hunted it was so much fun. I can see the cerebral bore squirting monkey brains so clearly in my mind.

I loved the kar98k even more. My friend and I would one v one on small maps only using this weapon. So much fun. And the single player sniper missions with it were great.

Baloney spelled that way specifically means bullshit in US english.

In the traditional meaning of the words, all Republicans and Democrats are conservative liberals. Does that seem like an oxymoron? It's not, we've just twisted the word liberal to mean not conservative in the US. Progressive is a much better word for people who are against the conservative agenda.

These people don't understand long term thinking. Cutting Medicaid will stop the poorest Americans from getting preventative care. This will massively increase the cost to the country when they have to go to the emergency room to try to save their life later on. Our taxes will pay those exorbitant bills.

I read that for every dollar in funding, the IRS brings in five dollars. But it's long term, so it's impossible for these fuckers to comprehend.

When that shit popped off last time there were restaurants putting signs outside saying "We proudly serve freedom fries" where I live in a deep red state. Made it easy to pick who to boycott.
