chasfh Posted October 1 Posted October 1 I am really, really looking froward to the new Ken Burns documentary series about the American Revolution. I am definitely not looking forward to the Trump people using it as a cudgel in their stupid ****ing culture war, whinging endlessly about how woke the series is because the it has the gall and the audacity to highlight any contributions at all from women, people of color, and First Nations people. The MAGA elitists might even use the program as an excuse to put PBS into the guillotine once and for all. It looks amazing, though. Quote

There are no photographs, no living witnesses to put on screen, and a lot of what would be interesting letters and correspondence had been destroyed. Martha Washington burned all of her letters to and from George, for example. That said, we had a chance to see a preview a couple of weeks ago. What we saw was great. The National Park Service, Virginia 250 Committee, and the PBS station in Norfolk had the showing on the battlefield in Yorktown. They showed about an hours worth of footage, a lot of what we saw was tailored for the event so there was a lot of Yorktown footage. You can see Burns and company's fingerprints on this, it didn't seem to show any political leaning imo. But there are folks who tend to find Colonial Williamsburg a bit too woke for their tastes Quote
CMRivdogs Posted October 1 Posted October 1 It’s a small thing in the general scheme but a gubernatorial candidate cannot do this and expect to get elected Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 1 Posted October 1 I'm not up on my UVA vs VATech sports lingo, but I would imagine what she just said would be like speaking at MSU and trying to get the room to chant Go Blue! along with you. Quote

Pretty much. admiringly it was a side remark possibly a slip. But one does not mix up rivals like that. Besides Tech played Saturday, UVa had the Friday night stampede Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 7 Posted October 7 (edited) Why are the most homophobic and pro family values people always the ones that get outed as gay or bisexual or get caught having a threesome? We get lectured and legally regulated on what is acceptable morality and life values by people like Mr. Schriver, only to have them get caught doing what they are lecturing and legally regulating the rest of us not to do.

Psychological phenomena is called something like the "Breastplate of Righteousness" Its a self-delusion in some cases, and in others its just "that is what happens on the DL and the rest of it is for show". A good point of reference is the guy who wrote the book about his time in the GOP Stuart Stevens, who talked about how many of his fellow GOP operatives were gay. Quote
CMRivdogs Posted October 9 Posted October 9 Not surprising. These types always seem to over promise and under perform. Especially when there is little accountability Quote

Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Christ, even Tucker Carlson sorta gets it. Even he is beginning to recognize how bad and oppressive this administration is getting under Trump. Quote

We are so thankful for Kamala.... Quote
