They don't care. They think everyone being hurt by this is a parasite. Seeing those ppl suffer is like porn to them. They literally get off on it.

So Biden could have just fired DeJoy.

Mandela effect, I guess. Lol now I want to ask random ppl if they think Tank Man was run over.

Well, I assume Trump won't have them shot or sent to a gulag, at least not yet, but you know what I mean.

That's crazy! I just pulled it up and it was exactly how I remember it. Two guys kinda led him away - couldn't tell if they were friends or foe, but he def wasn't run over. It was on the news so much! How could ppl be that wrong?

Not among ppl old enough to remember it. That footage ran practically on a loop for weeks. College kids had tank man posters on their walls. They might have moved on to the next thing, as ppl do, but I'm pretty sure they'd remember if you brought it up.

Or at least I don't know anyone who thought that.

It's not true that he was run over by the tank, or that everyone thinks he was.

Something we'd hear a lot more about if the rockets were manned.

Wasn't there severe flooding in W TN too? Was it not bad enough for a disaster declaration, or is our governor just being slow to ask again?

I feel like that situation is about to get a lot worse.

So should cops determine immigration status before they read someone their Miranda rights?

It's insane though. My kids know Kent St. They learned about it in school, know the story behind iconic picture. That this other story was just...pushed aside!

I don't have a NYT subscription anymore, but a torture killing in a field sounds like a hate crime to me?

I think about this every time I see someone on "our team" wanting to throw trans ppl under the bus.

And every Thanksgiving kids should hear about King Philip's War. And the Pequot massacre too. I had ONE teacher who talked about it. And I went to school in CT.

Every Columbus Day, we should talk about how Columbus was recalled to Spain bc the atrocities he committed offended the sensibilities of the ppl who were running the Spanish Inquisition.

This! I've known about Kent St. literally as long as I can remember. Didn't hear about Jackson St until a few yrs ago.

Sometimes democracy gets gunned down in the streets in broad daylight.
