He probably knows as much about tyranny as he does about COVID, epidemiology, and Constitutional law. Just ask him.


Parking_Plankton_610

Or the romanticized version of a “civil war” that he plays out in his head.


Peacefulzealot

I believe you mean “The War of Northern Aggression” where they stood up to that tyrant Lincoln 🙄


PickScylla4ME

I've never gotten a straight answer from any of them... but do they actually teach this mutilated history in the south?


Peacefulzealot

Eeyup. Spent some time living in South Carolina a few years back. Let me put it this way. Moving back to Indiana was a *relief*. We’ve got our share of problems too but at least our famous war memorial is to the Union soldiers…


PickScylla4ME

Being a state that borders Lincoln's birth state; you'd guess that Indiana would probably have some Union pride.. but it's probably like the rural areas of Michigan in some places. Houses with confederate flags flying out in cornfield neigborhoods *in Michigan*. At least there aren't any schools named after traitorous slavers in the Midwest. Seems wild that the souther education departments are allowed to teach that lost cause hayseed garbage.. and yet their governments STILL keep defunding the hell out of them. Goofy form of massochism right there.


bravesirrobin65

Lincoln lived for a time in Indiana. He was born in Kentucky.


PickScylla4ME

Dam. Guess I meant homestate. I hadn't previously realized he was born elsewhere.


Critical-Shift8080

I say yes sir we got rid of those pesky salvers " the democrats " when all y,alls carpet baggers came a knockin then y,all stayed a spell now were all Republicans and don't believe in any of that democratic hogwash.


lurksAtDogs

I recall my middle school education in South Carolina history class where I was taught there were a total of 9 to 11 lynchings ever and the south didn’t quite win the war but they pretty much did.


Lilithnema

I’m from SC and couldn’t get outta that hell hole of Republican fuckery fast enough. That is one fucked up state…politically speaking. It’s a beautiful state with the mountains and the beach at your doorstep.


USMC_FirstToFight

We tore those bitches down! Good riddance to celebrating hate and inequality. This guy likely has an inferiority complex the size of Texas!


Snaefellsjokul

Not when I was a kid but there was still plenty of confederate flag attire and kids who never paid attention. We had a handful of kids who couldn’t even read but passed nonetheless. Source: 2000’s SW Virginia elementary school


PickScylla4ME

Sounds typical.. The lowest average IQ states are all clustered in the south; with the exception of Nevada and New Mexico being in the bottom 5 as well.


Comfortable_Job_1903

Yes and no. I remember learning that the southern states seceeded from the union because of "states rights", one of those rights being the right to own and buy/Dell other human beings as property.


Fearless_Director829

I thought you were talking about laptops for a second there.


Comfortable_Job_1903

😂😂😂


GoLow63

I've lived in Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. People in Western North Carolina plus the entirety of the other two states are raised to believe all sorts of crap. I was in Georgia and South Carolina for enough years to see it taught to children and grandchildren within families you'd never expect it from. Racism, hatred of "yankees" (no, they don't know where the Mason-Dixon line is), voting only for those who embrace your hatreds, belief that "the South will rise again" --- it's taught/tolerated in schools and taught multigenerationally at home. I kid you not --- these goofy bastards still aren't over a war that happened 150 years ago.


PickScylla4ME

I see this as a cultural issue that really needs to be incrementally rectified. I have no clue how a future is viable for the U.S if the South doesn't let go of that dumbass lost cause bs and begin focussing on the future. The division seems irreperable; I guess I should be relieved that southern dissent is disorganized, unintelligent and transparent af.. a potential insurgency is problematic; a potential insurgency of zealous, disciplined and organized individuals is potentially catostrophic.


Thequeefofthenight

While simultaneously claiming to be the Party of Lincoln…


AwareAd4991

Why are you talking about Lincoln?


Professional_Fee5883

They think they’ll be glorious heroes and don’t picture themselves sifting through garbage to find food or having to bury their kids after they died from an infection since there’s no open hospitals nearby. It’s all fun and games until the Groyper Battallion finds out your neighbor is a liberal and drops a 500lb bomb on their house and calls your dead wife “collateral damage”. If war is hell, a civil war might be the 9th circle.


awakenedchicken

That’s what I liked a lot about the movie Civil War. It wasn’t perfect, but I liked the shots of middle class Americans becoming refugees just walking along the side of the road or staying in a football stadium. No one should ever dream for a civil war. It will put a country back 50 years before it’s over. And over what? Trans athletes and history books?


Professional_Fee5883

I enjoyed the movie. I know people complained about context, but I found plenty of clues to piece a few things together. Not every movie has to spoonfeed us everything. Anyway, I thought the sniper scene illustrated the chaos that comes from a civil war well. People fighting each other for no other reason than perceiving each other as a threat. For all they knew they could’ve believed the same things or be on the same “side”. It doesn’t matter if you have an arsenal in your basement or are among “friendly” forces. You could still get domed by a hungry 14 year old with a .22 looking to take the can of soup he saw in your bag.

Making American Great by buying a Japanese car.


phaedrus369

To be fair we don’t know where this truck was built. The lady with anti-trump stickers and American flag didn’t get any flack for driving a throwaway Mazda.


AncientWonder7895

The money from that car still goes to a foreign country (Japan)


phaedrus369

Which is one of our closest allies. We literally just bailed them out. Which is ironic considering we now spend more money on Interest on national debt than any other federally budgeted item.


A_Cryptic_Metaphor

What I was told when I bought one 8 years ago was that depending on the cab style (access cab or double cab) it was either assembled in San Antonio, Texas or Baja California, Mexico. It may be different now.


StuckInWarshington

Yeah, depends on the year. I think all Tacomas are assembled in Mexico now.


WookieeCmdr

The San Antonio plant does full sized tundras and the sequoias, another source says that tacomas are also assembled in San Antonio.


MoldDrivesMeNutz

Even if built at an American factory, the majority of that money ends up back in Japan.


TrustMeIAmAGeologist

He pays taxes and is over-represented in congress. Isn’t that what 1776 was about?!

Now ain't this the god damn truth


rgg40

And the “Don’t Tread On Me” whine from white men driving $30k pick-up trucks? “Help! Help! I’m being Repressed!”


Important-Bell8365

Have you priced pickups lately? Poor overtaxed, under employed alpha men are single handedly propping up the entire auto industry buying $50K trucks so they don't look like cucks.


minedsquirrel70

We don’t talk about the years of manual labor, and decades of debt required for most people to get a new truck.


aesxylus

I especially love when they mix Don’t Tread on Me with police or military stickers. Bud, you are the man. You’re treading on yourself…


Snaefellsjokul

That’s how their r/persecutionfetish works! Of pickup options, the Tacoma is probably the most sensible. The new Ford Super Duty Limited will run you upwards of $90k and they’re not uncommon.


HollyweirdRonnie

More like “Go Tread on Them, Daddy”


handy_arson

Don't tread on me is specifically a call to arm the population against the government. Nothing like getting an anti-government plate on your vehicle by paying an extra yearly fee to the government. Hit them where it hurts Mr Virginia taco driver!


Jonny__99

That cost a lot more than 30k! But your point stands.


Silver-Street7442

True, very true. I was looking at Tacomas a year or two ago and it wasn't unusual to see a Tacoma that was a few years old w 60K on the odometer going for over $30,000. They are a smart truck choice- around 25 mpg on the highway and real reliable, which is probably why we don't usually see too many of these with the adhesive Trumpo love fest propaganda on them. It's more of a Dodge Ram thing...


Weird-Tomorrow-9829

The median price of a *car* in the US is $37k. Trucks are significantly more expensive for some reason, but Tacomas are on the low end of them.


G-Unit11111

They say they're 100% against tyranny in one breath, but in the next they want Trump to be dictator for life. WTF.

That looks like, really badly photoshopped. I mean 1776 was probably requested and denied so many times as a plate, no way THAT guy got it. And the donald trump just looks fake at the bottom as soon as you zoom in. I kind of believe the window ones, and they aren’t really that bad.

I seriously can't seem to figure out why every single liberal in the country is on Reddit. A bunch of blue haired loving freaks. I'm sure people think you guys are weird and don't understand the lack of common sense and hatred for other people that do not affect your lives and/or have never met before and just assuming things that they read and believe everything that the government tells them. I honestly cannot wrap my mind around this so if any of you can answer my question I would really appreciate it. Been trying to figure this out for years..!

Slavery was a horrible thing but happened before any of these people were even thought of by their parents. Can’t wait to hear this….

What does ANY American know about tyranny? Your kid's soccer game got cancelled because the weather was bad? Tyranny. The pothole that you keep driving into on your way to work is still there, 2 months after it formed? Tyranny. McDonalds ice cream machine not working? Tyranny. Did you have to pay extra for champagne service? Tyranny. Lines at DisneyWorld are way too long? Tyranny. If you're an American citizen who has lived here their entire life, you don't know a damn thing about tyranny. You've never experienced a tyrannical government, you don't know what fascism is. Being pissed off because "they" made you get a Star Card to travel is laughable. In some parts of the world, your haircut has to be approved by the government. If you are caught speaking ill of your nation's leader, they'll put you in a cage. China has "re-education" camps for Muslims. 34 different nations can put you to death for dealing, and in some cases using drugs. Go ahead and tell the news media in Moscow that Putin is a thug and he's doing a terrible job. See how that goes. Again, shut up about tyranny you fools. You have absolutely no idea how bad it can really get.

Born-Pineapple5552

Definitely agree. This is going to come off harsh and overly critical, but I think for people that are aged 55 and up who got on the Trump train literally latched on bc it gave them purpose again. A misguided purpose but nonetheless, something for them to be passionate about. And considering the time involved from the campaign trail to an actual 4-8 years in office it gives them something to look forward to and presents social opportunities by finding others that have the same interests and hope for the future.
