It and Animal Farm is also used by nazis as this big dig against socialism. Never mind the fact that Orwell himself went to Spain and joined the Marxist militia to he could fight the fascists. Making him an original ultra leftist violent anti fascist.

A lady just died of measles in France because she wasn't vaccinated properly. Good job France having people die of measles in tyool 2018, all because of a massive government gently caress up after a vaccine scare years back. At least they made it compulsory for newborns now.

You are a gentleman and a scholar.

“We’re not seeking to alienate folks who have different perspectives on tax reform or infrastructure spending,” Aaron said in her recent Facebook post. “But when it comes to speaking out against systems of oppression and injustice, we see it as our moral responsibility to use our position of privilege and power, along with the tools of our trade and the platforms available to us, to engage visibly and actively in the fight for justice. Our roadside sign messages are one small way we do this.”

Her post went viral, spreading rapidly online among both right- and left-leaning groups, who then descended on the farm’s Facebook page to give either one- or five-star reviews that had nothing to do with kettle corn or apple-cider doughnuts.

For Aaron, though, the blowback presented an opportunity. To change people’s minds, even by just a degree or two, required communication that was respectful but honest. And here was a chance to talk to people who disagreed with her — lots of them.

“Resist white supremacy is not an inclusive message,” complained Patty Weston Meizlish. “When you single out a group of people you exclude them. This is a sad message.”

“Yes, generally speaking, we are comfortable excluding white supremacists,” responded Aaron, who studied psychology at Smith College in Massachusetts. “If you know some who would be interested in dialoguing with us, please have them contact us!”

Shannon Lee Sibley contended that she also supported fighting hate groups but wouldn’t spend her money at the farm because it would never post a “Blue Lives matter” sign in support of police.

“You’re right, Shannon — we do not support ‘Blue Lives Matter.’ . . . police lives are already and by default valued in our society,” she wrote. “Black lives are not, so we believe that a declaration that Black Lives Matter is necessary and important.”

“So black supremacy is okay then?” asked Lisa Lewis. “This is not a message of love, this is a message out to divide people even more. I would never ever visit your farm because you try to force your views on your customers. That is WRONG no matter what you say.”

“Lisa, when we talk about white supremacy, we’re referring to a systemic racism that is much deeper and more pervasive than any individual or group could be,” Aaron replied. “Black people do not have the institutional power in our society to benefit from so-called ‘black supremacy.’ It just doesn’t work like that.”

You have to love the self own.

“Maybe we should change ‘rise and resist’ to ‘resist white supremacy’...,” Lily Cox-Richard texted her. “That way, if someone takes a picture of one of our signs to post and says they are ‘saddened’ or ‘disappointed,’ they will be explicitly revealing themselves as the racist that they are.”

The only part of his "outlandish" statement that's 100% wrong is saying that we evolved from monkeys, rather than the harder-to-understand-for-a-dumbass "Monkeys and humans evolved from a common ancestor that no longer exists and are cousins, not direct ancestors."

Last I heard that was the theory, yeah. He's just saying it in a stupid way to make it sound stupid so he can make facebook posts about owning idiots who can't respond.
