They should do a Matrix remake but reveal at the end that it's the story of the failure of one of the previous Matrixes they mention in Matrix 2

That one at least will not inspire existential panic because no one would mistake utopiatrix for this

What's the deal with Ar-kansas? Is it like an alternate version of Kansas? Better or worse?

Campaign signs should have no legal protections of any kind. It should be legal to steal them, deface them, or run them over with your car.

Campaign signs should be religious icons and you should get in-game bonuses for praying to them.

Fun Blue Law, it's technically illegal to call Arkansas - Ar-Kansas, instead of Are-can-saw in the state of Arkansas.

The South is gerrymandered and voter-suppressed to poo poo, and is far from the Trumpy Monolith people pretend it is. When other people stop smugly looking down their noses at the backward South and start helping build progressive coalitions, the South will quit being Trumpy.

Beautiful country though, I agree.

I am sorry I broke up your weird hate boner for an area of the country that you understand poorly by talking about facts like 'GoP state governments have been baking voter suppression into their gameplan for the past 40 years which depresses Democratic turnout and make places look more red than they are'. :( That must have been hard for you to have to listen to a thing that goes against your preconceived notion of a place and its people.

why don't you take a drive through it and have a look at all the signs

the thread was talking about campaign signs and I mentioned I saw a shitload of Trump campaign signs in southern AR

if you want to argue about this poo poo, go bother someone else. I fuckin live in the south, I know what it's like

I was actually arguing with Jastiger's rereg up there when you kramer'd your way back into the conversation. I live in the South and have family in southern Arkansas, I'm aware of the signs. You don't seem to be aware of much about the region outside of a quick drive, so if you want to let it go that'd be fine with me, but this kind of 'oh the stupid redneck south' rhetoric is one of the reasons some larger national progressive movements ignore the South, which allows the GoP to further cement their control. You're abandoning ideological allies and oppressed people so that you can feel smug that your guy is politely racist while their guy is a little less politely racist.

Who do you think votes in the south and why

Who do you think puts signs in their yard and why

What do you think this means about the politics and demographics

Also where the gently caress do you think gay bashing is commonplace, cuz I'm literally a gay 5'5'' jew from the south and that's a horrible misinterpretation of how and why things are the way they are there

You can't see the real world unless you're hung over, and you can't be hung over unless you drink.

What I'm saying is you shouldn't drink.
