I feel that all through history we have had recourse to phrases- “never again” “that’s not who we are” “we’re better than that.”. We have never been right about that. We always end up back here.
yes I posted something like this and deleted it; it had a grammatical issue that would've called all the milkshake pedants to the yard and I just don't have it in me to *not* take a flamethrower to my mentions today
I understand, and at the same time I'm hoping for some grammatical adept to write the excruciatingly correct version of "my milkshake brings all the pedants to the yard" that this implies.
None of them have any idea that the last guilded ended with the oligarchs realizing that it was reforms or pitchforks and torches. THOUGH, i kinda doubt Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan were as dumb as this lot.
Those guys had to actually make shit themselves when they started, before they grew into robber barons. This current lot was handed a shit ton of cash and then hit their heads on the moron hammer and fell onto the upward mobility escalator for below average rich white dudes.
