Proud to be ignorant! I don’t think Lincoln knew that “you can fool some of the people all of the time” would not only be contagious but also hereditary!!
I have no quarrel with science. I do, however, with social engineering.

If, by propaganda, you mean truths that you find frightening or inconvenient, then, yes, I plead guilty.

No. By propaganda we mean you are in the thrall of lunatics and shiny objects, dazzled by confirmation bias and shamelessness.

I’ll go with my definition. Based on my experiences here, it is a much better fit.

For decades, whenever I heard republicans lamenting life back in "the good old days", I subconsciously assumed they had a blind spot about how bad things were for women, but especially minorities, and especially Blacks.
I don't think that anymore.
It turns out, racism/bigotry isn't at all a "bug" for them, it's who that are.
Silly me. I need to learn to stop projecting my admirable virtues onto people who not only don't deserve them, but who see them as a weakness, in me.

Thank God we have morally superior individuals such as yourself to not only point out our deficiencies, but to work so hard to balance things out, not to mention posting about it 95 times a day. Where would our world be without people like you?

THIS!
THIS is the sort of CRT shit that could make racists feel bad about themselves!
Good to know that Greg Abbott and Mama Bears Descending are doing the lord's work and protecting children and their racist parent's feelings!

Sarah Sanders is orders of magnitude the most horrible excuse for a human being. That’s saying a lot, in a world with DeSantis, Trumps, McConnell, Clarence Thomas, MTG, Boebert and Ted Cruz.

Fascist parents raise their children with fascist values, beliefs & policy preferences. Fascists try to keep a tight control over their children so that their fascism won't be contradicted or challenged. Schools challenge fascism, which is why the fascists want to abolish them.
@ItsDocumented uncovered leaked videos and recordings that expose the Alliance Defending Freedom’s plot to wipe out public schools in America.
Their goal is to take down the entire system of education — and replace it with religious schools.
Here’s how they plan to do it.

So, Wisconsin republicans think farmers should to have to pay more in taxes so there can be more private, government-funded schools, that ban books? Got it!
Video of feckless republican silence lasting 35 seconds, in service to the Christo-Fascist oligarchy.
It's impossible not to see the similarity to Trump's 2017 tax cuts, which will add nearly $2 Trillion to the national debt.
The bill was a typical republican give-away to the wealthy, banks, and other corporations, for whom the tax cuts are permanent. You read that right, the law cut corporate tax rates permanently but individual tax rates temporarily, because individual tax provisions expire after 2025. It also permanently removed the individual mandate—a key provision of the Affordable Care Act—which was
likely to raise insurance premiums and significantly reduce the number of people with coverage.
Fewer people with medical insurance?
Meh, let them eat cake...
