That illustration appears to meet the criteria for the editorial cartooning pulitzer and drat well better win

quote:

“This is not a drill,” a voice announced over the PA system. At the same moment, teachers received a text message warning of an active shooter on campus. Fearful students took shelter in classrooms. Many sobbed hysterically, others vomited or fainted, and some sent farewell notes to parents. A later announcement prompted a stampede in the cafeteria, as students fled the building and jumped over fences to escape. Parents flooded 911 with frantic calls.

Later it was revealed, to the fury of parents, teachers, and students, that in fact this was a drill

We owe that to automobile lobbyists and manufacturers that bought the train lines and dismantled them during the guilded age to force people to buy cars.

FYI, the "gilded age" refers to the late 19th century. It is a parody of "golden age," implying that the shiny appearance of wealth and progress was laid over a cheap substrate of corruption and social ill.

The guilded age would have been the high middle ages to the early modern period.

This is my problem with Sanders:

quote:

When asked by VPR’s Bob Kinzel if he’s worried that he might no longer best represent “the face of the new Democratic Party,” Sanders defended his campaign by invoking Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech — a pro-Black civil rights speech that was definitely not intended to give white men the confidence to run for president.

“We have got to look at candidates, you know, not by the color of their skin, not by their sexual orientation, or their gender, and not by their age,” he continued. “I mean, I think we have got to try to move us toward a non-discriminatory society which looks at people based on their abilities, based on what they stand for.”

He still does not understand that race, gender, and sexual orientation matter. They aren't secondary or subordinate to economics. He doesn't understand that a minority perspective is a positive attribute, not a neutral one.

He doesn't get that at this point, old white straight men need to sit the gently caress down and support or shut up.

I get that as an issue but it seems that standard only gets applied to Bernie Sanders. Biden literally gave Strom Thurmond's eulogy and got into politics to fight bussing, but the woke police have not made any arrests there. It feels tactical. Like how in 2016, suddenly republicans everywhere cared deeply about email security policies.
