We do. We just don't harp about it or make it a part of our public persona. We don't advertise it on our cars, clothing, or houses. And honestly? That's for the best. A Democrat with a weapon is absolutely going to be seen as an enemy of the state in a short time. Best we continue to stay low.

I think there are a lot of people who honestly mean well. Have been in the past, and likely still are. But what we have right now, to take a cue from Komodo up above with his Captain American post, this is like real-world Captain America: Winter Soldier, where it looks like overnight we've suddenly become a fascist nation. Sad reality though is, like that movie, things have been going on for decades that led us to this point.

I'm not optimistic about our near future. Shit looks grim. But, I'm optimistic that we can eventually fight our way out of it, and hopefully correct things after whatever needs to be done, is done. Got to have some hope, otherwise there's no point in holding on at all.

It's a shame, there was a scene cut where Captain America walks by a building showing graffiti art of his helmet with the word 'fascist' in red on it, causing him to sigh and toss it off. I don't think he wore it again until Endgame, where they incorporated it into the time travel suit.

Wish that scene should've been kept in, and had a bit more focus on Steve Rodgers questioning if he truly was working for organizations that believed what he did. A crisis of faith moment for him instead of a quick 3-second pass with a joke from Hawkeye.

Ah, I see our glorious leaders are reaching the "FO" phase of "FAFO".

No gang ties, no criminal history, not even from that country.

We are the baddies.

Zelenskyy would be best off opening a golf course there. Then maybe Trump would visit, as long as he is promised that he would win the very first (and only) Ukranian Open.

If he wanted to increase the chances of a visit from "maybe" to "assuredly", he would have a full buffet catered by McDonald's.

The good news is, for us prepper types, is that proteins are looking to have a good, if short, crash in prices in the coming weeks or couple months as export orders dry up. They'll drop just to break even on the immediate costs, then go back up again as farms scale back their operations to accommodate the decreased demand, raising costs back up again, except at that point, it'll likely be higher as there's no real "buffer" of producing more for exports and there's an overall smaller count of source animals.

Now's a good time to get a chest freezer (or a second one) and get it ready to stock up.

He praised the Republican party for their "antitrust stance"?

Is he in the same timeline as I am?

Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!

Oh, you don't like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY
