This is the most Reagan-esque messaging I've heard since the man himself

It's time we return to trusting our fellow Americans instead of gov't.

I fear that bird has flown. We’ve opened Pandora’s box of government dependence and steadily increased the flow of opiates to the masses. Government benefits by individualizing us and dividing. I fear we’ll never be able to reel that back in.

Hyper-inflation will expose and force a lot.
 
His kids dont even go to public school, I find it odd how many people are showing up at school board meetings when it doesnt impact them.
Bad policy is bad policy. He’s there to help his community I guess. He is a funny dude. One of the few conservative podcasters I can stand. He still plays into the two party narrative though.

He pays taxes that get used to pay for public schools regardless of whether his kids attend or not. He lives in a community where the success or failure of schools can impact him in a number of ways. To me, that means he has a stake in the schools. As does every other member of the community.

In a general sense I agree with you, but on this specific issue I do not. If his kids arent forced to wear masks, then this doesnt affect them a bit.
 
You boneheads have been sheep for the last 80 years believing their bullshit rhetoric of American exceptionalism and freedom. You're the ones who ate up the propaganda and fear. They have you exactly where they want you. Bamboozled.
 
While the rest of the world moved on from post-WWII rhetoric, the American right-wing still uses it as their cornerstone.

Dude, we get it. You are miserable and hate living in America, hate everyone here, and hate everything about it. You hate everyone who enjoys living here. We get it. This is the most tired, played out narrative on this board.

Just move to fuking Denmark already so you can shove weird food in your mouth while badmouthing Americans and telling everyone you meet about how badly America sucks and how you hate everyone who still lives there.

First, they came for the Jews. And I said nothing because I wasn't a jew.......

He's not only a taxpayer that funds the schools, but he might send them there if they weren't so institutionalizing. Furthermore, he's clearly there to represent neighbors who cannot afford private or cannot home school.

Institutionalization in public education to not question the state is the scariest thing about America's youth. Frankly, I don't like the pledge being forced either.

Yes, we were against FDR and racism, as well as the bigoted policies of the Democratic party just 50-70 years ago, which is within your 80 years, it laughable. Seriously, to stereotype Republicans when you're actually talking decades of Democratic bigotry is funny... and sad.

I'm with others... leave, instead of condoning the anti-science, pro-big brother institutionalization of our youth. I don't like a lot of the GOP platform, but at least they are openly questioning the state... even when Trump was President.
 
There is no proof it's healthy to wear them. Even fauci said it's for show. The reason that prior to the vaccine the covid numbers came down the population lines in general and not mask enforcement.

Maskless obama can toss a super spreader party without them. The democrats can fly on a private jet without them and spread covid. Keep on falling in line like a good sheep while those making the rules do something else.
^^^ This is what is breeding rebellion.

You're only proving my point, zombie boy.

You've been force-fed American exceptionalism your entire life, and the only comeback you can muster is "well, just leave!!"

Your finger waiving, crying, and bitching about "badmouthing Americans" is just a byproduct of your own fear and insecurity. I didn't badmouth anyone, I just told you we aren't as wonderful as you've been forced to believe.

I expect no different from a middle-class white boy who did exactly what he was told, and never bothered to step outside of his safe, white, suburban, christian, confines.

WTF has Obama to do with masks in schools?
The last 2 Presidents had parties without masks (at least 1 required vaccines). If either of them or their guests gets Covid and dies, we can’t say is a big loss for the country

You literally want to turn the US into the Soviet, and spew things even Europeans will tell you aren't socialism and won't work.

That is literally your problem, and I say this as someone who is just as critical of the GOP. When Europeans see the DNC as the anti-freedom party, even when they also disagree with the GOP, that says something.

Progressives have become totalitarians who literally don't understand the first thing about Europeans and socialism.

We're becoming more like Venezuela, and that's why less and less Americana trust the government.

Okay, Joe McCarthy.

There is no better way to prove you're not mindless sheep than to parade out some 70 year old scary Commie rhetoric. Yup, yup.... keep telling us how the commies are coming to get us and throw us all into camps.

What is your point being posting this editorial? Frankly, I believe it continues to prove my point that outdated fears of communists have continued to shape right-wing policies well into the future. Even the author's final thought:
"But enough new information has come to light about the communists in the U.S. government that we may now say that point by point Joe McCarthy got it all wrong and yet was still closer to the truth than those who ridiculed him."
admits that Joe McCarthy was a disgraced goon of biblical proportions, yet we will still believe in him because we are scared of the results if we don't. Living in fear for more than 80 years, and the right-wing is still telling us the commies are coming. Thanks for the help.

85, UCFBS, and goodknightfl, all immediately went there. It is all they have. That's what happens when you've been bamboozled for more than 80 years.

In spite of the fact that nobody has ever tried to turn the United States into Cuba, China, Russia, or Venezuela, they still believe there is a scary boogeyman that is going to do it. They still believe the United States is the only place on earth where one can have "muh freedum."

It all stems from the same place, fear and insecurity that has been bred by being force-fed American exceptionalism.

Yes, because you're not even a good European, much less American, when you spew your ideals that are straight from the Soviet. You're not a socialist at all, and you fail to recognize American neo-liberalism and freedom, further pushing your totalitarian ideals.

American exceptionalism isn't about 'winning,' it's about letting people choose to maximize themselves and their future. That is now dead, because of people like yourself.

That's what happens when you've been bamboozled for more than 80 years.
And this is the most ignorant statement I've ever seen. 'Your team' is the one that has been far more bigots over most of those 80 years than the GOP.

I am NOT a Republican, but right now the GOP is at least fighting the totalitarian left more than they themselves are creating one.

Even Trump, despite so much I don't like about him, was against the controlling mandates of the scientifically ignorant as much as he himself was also scientifically ignorant.

I don't support Trump and the GOP, but I'm glad they are around or otherwise we'd be a total, authoritarian Soviet because of the current DNC direction.

And Biden is talking about total disarmament of the American populace, which will only INCREASE gun crimes as organized crime -- which has risen past $2T/year now -- will take over as they will be undeterred of unarmed subdivisions and rural America.

Yes, please leave! I don't want your kind here!

No, we WILL be hyper-inflation soon enough!
The GOP is just as responsible as the DNC for that.

But the GOP is NOT recommending we disarm the populace and outlaw militias, the only people who will be able to 'stand up' to the organized crime control if we DO have such, and OUTLAW legal ownership.

It all stems from the same place, fear and insecurity that has been bred by being force-fed American exceptionalism.
And you fail to understand what American exceptionalism is.

It's not that Americans are better.
It's that Americans have a right to self-determination.
They have the right not to be dictated their lives and livelihood.

It's why people used to come to America and invest in it.
Used to is the key word.

We are headed towards the authoritarian Soviet.
It's so bad that all of my pro-socialist European colleagues cannot stand the DNC now.

They don't consider them fellow liberals any more, and while they don't love the GOP, they too are glad the GOP exist to counter their totalitarianism.

Then a lot of my European friends are Communists as well, because they are even saying it about the American left! And they have NO love for the GOP!

Agree with most (not all). McCarthy was a fear monger. I'm just trying to point out the obvious ...

What is your point being posting this editorial? Frankly, I believe it continues to prove my point that outdated fears of communists have continued to shape right-wing policies well into the future.
No, it's about the fact that the Soviet destroyed itself ...
And now we're going to the Soviet ourselves, and it will destroy us too.

Progressives are selling 'socialism,' which is actually authoritative, centrally planned, Soviet style leadership ... especially the lack of scientific-foundation.
California is a perfect example of poor environmental policy pushed by lobbyists and utterly wasteful spending that is at odds with Europe.

It's going national here in the US, and it's going to get ugly.
That's what every European is trying to warn us Americans about, it's not socialism.

My Progressive US friends have banned and cut off every shared European liberal I know.

Oh he most certainly was a fear monger and created a public persona that was easy to bash. I just wanted to point out that, as more and more information comes out of the old Soviet republics, time is finding that McCarthy was right about the communists fighting their culture war through infiltration of our own institutions. They never stopped, either.
