I think the biggest point we are missing is that Dan Lietha is the LEAST racist because the hero is a black dude.

And brace yourselves, today's Garrison rant is a doozy.



Ben Garrison posted:

We at GrrrGraphics wish everyone a happy 4th of July!

Our cartoon features President Donald J. Trump, General Michael Flynn and the Digital Soldiers of the Q Army

America remains the greatest Republic ever created. Yes, we face many problems, but racism is not one of them. There is no ‘systemic racism.’ That is a lie. There remains equal opportunity for all those willing to work hard to obtain success. The Bolsheviks will have none of this and are using race to divide and destroy our country. We must not let this happen. Black or white, we have nothing to be ashamed of. Slavery reparations were already paid long ago. It was called the Civil War. Over 600,000 Americans died and slavery was ended.

My heritage includes both the North and South. My mom was born in Massachusetts. I might be distantly related to the famous abolitionist, William Lloyd Garrison of Massachusetts, but I doubt it. My dad was born in Texas. My parents’ ancestors were on opposite sides. I can appreciate both the North and South. Of course slavery was evil, but the vast majority of southerners were not. Very few had slaves.

Despite what Nancy Pelosi has been spewing, the people of the South were not ’traitors.’ They did not want to overthrow the government of the North. What the South did was called ’secession.’ They wanted to disassociate themselves from the unfair tariffs and corruption meted out to them by the North. In those days the states had far more power along with the understanding that they could divorce themselves from the union when tyranny and unfair taxation became unbearable. So they did. Lincoln would have none of it and forced the southern states to return to the union by means of war. It remains our country’s deadliest conflict.

In the process, Lincoln established a strong central government and the states were rendered more subordinate. This arrangement has grown worse over the years and now the leviathan federal government routinely bullies the states and its citizens. The word ‘federal’ is now used with finality. It’s an argument ender. We have no say!

To expedite a national restoration, all southerners received full pardons. They were once again part of the Union. The South was allowed to erect statues of their great generals. Paintings of great leaders from the South hung in the halls of Congress. Pelosi recently ordered their removal. She said they were traitors. WRONG! They were not traitors, they wanted succession—and then they were pardoned! Pelosi is the real traitor for trying to destroy our history!

The fact that the South was defeated does not negate their heroism. l repeat, almost none of the soldiers fighting for the South owned slaves. They were fighting for freedom and liberty and they were just as honorable and heroic as soldiers from the north. All should be honored. Our history should be respected. The statues should remain—including and especially Andrew Jackson’s.

President Jackson was our first Democrat president. Jackson’s greatest accomplishment was throwing out the central bankers. A man of unparalleled courage, Jackson was vastly outnumbered during the War of 1812 and still handily defeated the British near New Orleans. By the way, many blacks heroically fought for Jackson during that battle.

African Americans fought in all our country’s wars from the very beginning and have been just as patriotic as other races. You don’t often hear from them because the lying mass media only promotes socialist voices. I do not want to see America totally destroyed and returned to Native Americans. I can’t return to Ireland, Britain, or Germany any more than an African American can return to, say, Ghana or the Upper Congo. Why would we? We are all fortunate to be where we are—the greatest Republic ever created on the face of the Earth. It would be a deadly shame to allow its destruction.

The Fourth of July is a holiday that all Americans should celebrate regardless of petty political differences. Unfortunately the violent globalist Bolsheviks don’t see it that way. They want to widen the division as they constantly chant ‘racist’ to justify their goal: The destruction of our great country. It starts with destroying our statues and history.

The violent BLM and Antifa are the real traitors—not the people from the old South.

Is this the first time Garrison's openly acknowledged Qanon? He's put "subtle" references to Q in his works loads of times before, but I don't remember him ever making it obvious or explicitly mentioning it in his rant.

Just for the record, police in New York essentially did their job (and they had to know they would be praised for it too) 19 years ago, and because of that, anything any police officer does is cool and good. Does that apply for other groups?

That would seriously mess up with the cycle of night and day because nights would be so much brighter than even a full moon night with such a giant reflector in the sky.

We'd probably not even know that stars exist because of the excess light during the night drowning them out.

Those masks do result in a reduction of oxygen intake, not because oxygen is too big to go through but because it largely blocks airflow (which is the entire point) so you get a pocket of stale air in front of your nose and mouth. It's not comparable to a balaclava or burka or whatever because it's not the same degree of filtration nor the same tight fitting on the face.

Obviously you shouldn't wear a mask 24/7, nor when there are no real reason to wear one. But in a crowded area, especially when not in the open air (such as, inside a shop for example)? Then yeah, wear the loving mask. It's definitely an annoyance but that and washing your hands regularly are how we can reduce the virulence of this disease. The sooner the pandemic is over, the sooner we can forget about the masks and go back to not washing our hands constantly like we have OCD.
Surgical and cloth masks of the kind being advocated for population-level control of COVID spread do not meaningfully affect oxygen intake. The lungs of any reasonably healthy person (i.e. not suffering from lung disease that impair oxygen transfer, like emphysema) are better than they need to be to get oxygen into the blood. When you put on a mask and breathe through it for hours through any normal activity your blood oxygen saturation will remain normal. They also don't significantly increase work of breathing. I've worn them while doing various grades of mental and physical work for up to seven hours at a stretch.

Nobody is being asked to wear them 24/7. You don't need to wear it in your own home or while sleeping, and if you're outside with nobody near by there's no real harm in taking a rest from the mask either.
