I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflectionsā¦
Heās a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The āReflection Poolā wasnāt designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. Itās designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
Itās designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
Heās a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isnāt becoming great, itās becoming vulgar.

The Christianity being put on display by Erika Kirk, Franklin Graham, William Wolfe, etc., is not the Christianity of Jesus.
Itās White cultural power dressed up as faith.
Donāt let them fool you.
YES OR NO: SHOULD PEOPLE STOP CALLING INDIGENOUS PEOPLES āIMMIGRANTSā ON THEIR OWN LAND?
Before the ships arrivedā¦
before the bordersā¦
before the coloniesā¦
before the United States even existedā¦
Native American nations were already here.
Thousands of years of history.
Thousands of communities.
Languages.
Trade routes.
Governments.
Ceremonies.
Cultures connected deeply to the land long before maps were drawn by European powers.
Thatās why images like this spark such intense conversations online.
Because the phrase āillegal immigrantsā completely changes when history enters the room.
For many Indigenous people, this isnāt about hate toward ordinary families searching for survival.
Itās about historical truth.
The first peoples of this land did not cross an ocean to claim it.
They did not arrive with foreign flags and declare millions of acres ādiscovered.ā
They were already home.
And yet, for generations, Native Americans were often pushed out of their own territories, forced onto reservations, denied citizenship, punished for speaking their languages, and pressured to abandon their traditions.
Some children were even taken from their families and sent to boarding schools where their culture was treated like something shameful.
That history still lives in memory today.
And maybe thatās why so many Native voices online are saying:
āLearn the full story before judging ours.ā
The image is provocative.
But it forces people to ask uncomfortable questions.
Who gets called ācivilizedā in history books?
Who gets called āsavagesā?
Who writes the narrative?
Who benefits from forgetting?
Many Americans grow up learning about Pilgrims and coloniesā¦
but far fewer learn about the hundreds of Indigenous nations that already existed across North America.
Entire societies with laws, diplomacy, agriculture, astronomy, architecture, and spiritual traditions were here long before the founding of America.
That truth matters.
Not to divide people.
But to understand the real history of the land beneath our feet.
Because acknowledging Indigenous history does not erase anyone elseās story.
It simply means Native voices deserve to be part of the conversation too.
And maybe the reason posts like this go viral is because people are tired of sanitized history.
People want honesty.
Even when itās uncomfortable.
The conversation is bigger than politics.
Itās about memory.
Identity.
Land.
And whether Indigenous peoples are finally being heard after centuries of being talked over.
So hereās the question again:
SHOULD PEOPLE STOP CALLING INDIGENOUS PEOPLES āIMMIGRANTSā ON THEIR OWN LAND?
YES or NO?
@TheSanJoaSavage@TheDemocrats Your grandfather fought for American values and democracy.
We used to be proud that weāre a country of immigrants. Donāt drag your bigotry into this.
@BrilynHollyhand āToday, weāre told our masculinity, flag, and country are offensive.ā
Grow the fuck up.
No one is telling you this because itās bullshit.
Out of 16.4 million Americans who served in WWII, only about 40,000 are still alive.
Theyāre dying at a rate of ~100 per day.
These are the heroes who saved the world from tyranny.
Find one. Thank one. Listen to their stories.
While you still can.
Watching D-Day in Saving Private Ryan really impacted me.
The soldiers are true heroes and Iām in awe of their bravery. We must honor those soldiers. What they did is extraordinary.
God bless them.
Serious question for all my gay friends, is Trump crushing on me or what? Posting pictures of me drawing his portrait in the middle of the night? Whereās Hunter? Lord knows he has my #. Seems like Iām in his dreams⦠even his little dreams during his many naps.
Mr. Trump - focus on Jaxson Dart he is more your type.
@Never_Democrats@jasonllevin I donāt need MSNOW to know the POTUS shouldnāt spend his nights on twitter threatening other countries and posting Ai pics of him as Jesus.
What has Trump done to make housing more affordable? Healthcare - he killed subsidies and prescription prices.
Hereās how muchā¦
