“Virtue signaling” are words I usually hear out of the mouths of people who are mad they’re not allowed to say the n-word. Even if used ironically it comes off about as funny as wearing a MAGA hat ironically.
So we made a thoroughfare
For Freedom and her train
Sixty miles in latitude
Three hundred to the main
Treason fled before us
For resistance was in vain
While we were marching through Georgia
Baseball - the all-American pariah!
(I’m a sucker for irony)
It’s a street fight. You pick up the rock or the bottle that’s at hand.
It has been said the GA DOT’s motto is “Finishing what Sherman began.”
This call from T rumpp to boycott baseball is no different than calling on his supporters to boycott being an American.
Go ahead. Make my day. It’s not like the stadiums will be full anyway.
How about just telling his 74 million admirers to boycott all elections from now on? They obviously don’t care about anything but fascism, so why waste their time if he’s not going to be on the ballot? Can’t wait to see how they all freak out once he’s indicted.
It’s the logical conclusion:
Black is white.
Up is down.
Baseball is un-American.
We have reached the Republican Singularity.
So is Dotard T rumpp.
Oh NO! Not the Non Athletic Sport Centered Around Rednecks!
The Event Horizon was the Citizens United and the reification of Corporations as Supercitizens, with powers and abilities far beyond those of ordinary mortals…
I’ll trade your my Woke card for one Cancel Culture and Birthism. Who are these people? They talk a language that was on the Dead Sea scrolls.
I hope Trump is successful in persuading his supporters to boycott baseball. Just think how nice it will be at the ballpark without a cadre of boorish ignoramuses in the stands spoiling the experience.
As you mention it, I love this phrase “not allowed to say the n-word”. It’s fascinating, because of course they are free to use the n-word as much as they please. But it doesn’t please them that they can’t say it without debasing themselves and suffering social disapprobation, or in their terms, cancellation. It’s one of the fundamental bedrock grievances of the Republican base. Cancel culture is among other things a dogwhistle for it.
Judging by the hair and the glare, he’s pissed that they got him out of bed to take this picture.
I’ve never seen the words to Marching Through Georgia (or heard the song) because it does not get sung in the south. But damn those are some good lyrics. I like it. hahahahaha
The statement rebuking baseball … was first reported by The Hill
Wish they hadn’t.
The few times I’ve forced myself to watch excerpts of his blatherings I’ve learned more with the sound off.
Dear Knuckle-draggers,
Do, please, follow the advice of your Orangutan King and remove yourselves from society in protest.
Love,
Humanity
