Star Wars is a movie about the policy of an authoritarian government, and the actions of those that fall on both sides of that policy. It’s explicitly political. It was written to be so.

Found the landlord, guys
Yeah, most Americans are generally not into the “USA USA USA” cult-like behavior of it all. Most of us are just regular people working shitty jobs to pay for shitty places to live. And all the grandstanding and “Do something!” from your rant is extremely disingenuous to the people are fucking doing something. Just because you don’t hear about it doesn’t mean it’s not happening. And you’re kind of an asshole for generalizing a whole people like that.

There have been multiple former members of the White House staff and Cabinet you have come out with scathing tell-alls. Then there are the multiple communications leaks. Then outright just stating that they are going to do the thing.
I’m pretty sure we are well past the point of revealing his true end goals and ending him right there
Nonono, I meant to comment on the comment above you. My bad.
I can honestly take or leave Hemingway. I was never particularly a fan of his writing style.
That’s rad! I want to go there some day exclusively for the cats
The United States is (not very) slowly sliding into full blown fascism. Things are getting less progressive here, not more. If you think that the current elimantionist rhetoric centered around trans people won’t make its way to you and your husband, then you haven’t read a single word of history. Shit’s about to get a whole lot worse for folks.
Fun fact: Ernest Hemingway used to collect polydactyl cats and now, because of him, there is a abnormally sizable population of polydactyl cats on Key West, FL.
You’re allowed to have your opinion, but you are not protected from the consequences of your speech. That’s literally how free speech works. It’s just a dick move to come in for no reason whatsoever and rain on somebody’s parade. Like you read that comment and decided that you HAD to insult them. It’s free to not be an asshole. If people are saying absolutely brutal shit to you over your comment, then they are also being assholes.

I’m curious as to why you think it’s “lame as fuck”. Does it harm you? Does it harm them? Does it fucking harm anybody? Does it just seem like a quickly little weird thing that you don’t do but others might? The answer to one of those questions is, “Yes”.

Heck, the DEBT doesn’t even come from lending the money. Banks can basically create money to loan with out of thin air thanks to fractional reserve banking.
When you said that football guy kneeling wasn’t political, I started to seriously question what your motives are. He literally knelt, during the national anthem, in a political protest against police brutality. Politics isn’t capitol hill bullshit. I’m fairly certain that you don’t have a deep enough understanding about politics to come in here and be the arbiter of what is and isn’t political.
While I understand the sentiment of your statement, and I think it was well intentioned, I think you’re wrong
