SECESSION IS FUTILE

I swear I heard on APM Marketplace the other day that the board of directors had been urging the sell off of Red Lobster for quite awhile. I suppose that's too free market for freep to deal with.

Edit: it was losing money, but it didn't have poo poo do do with Obama, it was because more and more restaurants that are faster and cheaper with actually decent quality keep entering a crowded marketplace and one board member said that Red Lobster had kind of an image problem as "a restaurant your grandmother went to."

Yeah it's about an alternate universe where Hitler got into art school and became a moderately successful pulp fantasy author. The whole thing is a brilliant satire of of modern fantasy's blatant racist undertones with annotations from a guy who hilariously tries to whitewash the obvious themes. You owe it to yourself to read it at your earliest opportunity

I would then have ruined it by taking it a step farther with a sequel: "2 Fascist, 2 Fuhrerous" that doesn't even have Hitler in it at all. Hitler would instead be lead in an unrelated story with a title that fans would have to refer as "Triple Swastika"

Those little attached row apartments are what you and I pay for every time we draw a paycheck.

These animals live in them rent free, get food stamps, EITC, WICs, many on TANF and utility assistance; the phones they record these tribal squabbles with are Obamaphones.

Those teenagers are the 3 and 4 children their mommas use to get those $6000 yearly EITC checks.

When they aren’t fighting, they’re out stealing, robbing, raping and selling drugs - you didn’t think that expensive pimp car came in mail with your welfare checks to them, did you. This is what Obama wants to turn America’s wealth, treasure and future to. A bunch of slugs that can’t even speak English.

"Obamaphones" are a product of a Reagan-era program to provide the impoverished with phones.

Under Bush I believe they changed it to cell phones (because it's more convenient and not more expensive). Because Obama is now President it becomes objectionable, so Obamaphones.

However, this means that mods and admins at Freep are completely okay with linking to white supremacist websites for the purposes of posting news they're taking at face value.

Just the linking to it isn't the problem. It's the fact that the threads seem pretty alright with the content there. This thread links to crazy poo poo all the time, but if anyone here posted links to Chimpout without the qualifier of "look at this appallingly racist poo poo!" then there would be consequences.

People on Freep get the zot for championing Romney too early in the primary, but posting links to white supremacist websites and agreeing with them is apparently A-Okay.

I think a reason why it might have suddenly become objectionable is because phones have gotten more advanced (and cheaper) since Bush was President. Freepers and their kind might have been somewhat okay with a bare-bones flip phone for the poor (though they would still complain) but now that smartphones are cheap (and in some cases free) it's a sign that the poor is "living in luxury" on their tax dollars since why should THEY get a free phone that can surf the internet and check email and play music? It should just be able to make phone calls and that's it!

It's the same reason why they say food stamps should only be able to buy bags of beans and rice.

The one thought constantly pulsing through the lizard brains of :freep: is that the Dumbocraps and lieberals are stealin' money from hard workin' salt of the earth family values We The People Real Muricans(i.e white people) and giving it all to lazy, shiftless, uppity, urban feral welfare queens(i.e. black people).

It is absolutely central to their racial and economic and social beliefs and it is totally unmoored from and untouchable by reality. It's why they defend government assistance to whites while instantly descending into a spittle-flecked rage at the idea of government assistance to blacks, even if it's the exact same program.
