Again, ~~I don't know~~ I am pretending not to know about Trump.

This is so thinly veiled, it's just sad.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

We know Trump will support whoever gives him the most money.

Biden and Harris have policy they have actually put time and thought into that support genocide.

That’s the difference.

If you are taking this as support for Trump I can’t help you son, get your head out of your ass maybe?

But to be clear, a vote for Harris is a vote for genocide. You could say both sides, but with a vote for Trump having your head in your ass is most likely the least of your problems

I’m urging our kids to vote for Kamala while also explaining why I am leaving president blank this year

Aren't dancing bears a Russian thing?

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Dancing bear is actually a symbol rooted in the heart of Americana.

Why? Are you Russian?

A few of the most prolific musicians in the world, some of whom still play together. All born in the US as far as I’m aware.

Show us how dancing bears are rooted in the heart of Americana. We all know you can't.

Oh, but look what they are in reality:

In Russia and Siberia, cubs were for centuries captured for being used as dancing bears accompanying tavern musicians (skomorokhi), as depicted in the Travels of Adam Olearius.

The Russian Bear (Russian: Русский медведь, romanized: Russkiy medved') is a widespread symbol (generally of a Eurasian brown bear) for Russia, used in cartoons, articles, and dramatic plays since as early as the 16th century, and relating alike to the Russian Empire, the Russian Provisional Government and Russian Republic, the Soviet Union, and the present-day Russian Federation.

Totally the root of Americana. Absolutely...

Lol

You've got to be joking. I'm guessing your script doesn't go too far off "bring up one band and ignore the centuries of culture".

That's alright. Maybe you'll find a better cheap job.
