Only in America would we force the second most powerful person in the world to argue with a mental patient in front of the entire world for 2 hours

@Heath33318404 @A233381 @wayotworld If the story is true and a young black man put his hands on a white man’s wife and mom (allegedly) would you expect a different result from the white man?

@LibsSuckaBigOne I see a bunch of small business owners competing in (quite literally) an open and free market.

@Bulldog78932701 @tyler_cov Yeah, I think the L’s might want to have something to say about this—but they have to clean the litter box first. 🙃

@ostopezdo @zachinabottle @InsomniacFurre @Quasar_Felsjr @The_Memeries @MAC_Arms @FrankFrankerso8 Ah, great! So since Marx was never a political figure, nor held any power, and all he ever did was write, you’re going to stop throwing around his name as if he actually did things other that write and instead focus on the actions of others (with accurate descriptors)?

[Jordan Cleveland @Swisstorian]

@ostopezdo @zachinabottle @InsomniacFurre @Quasar_Felsjr @The_Memeries @MAC_Arms @FrankFrankerso8 Quite literally the opposite of what Marx said.

@Lyondegreat7676 @wolfofx @historyinmemes Because they’re cheap.

@Moth3693 @PoliticaGabriel @DrLoupis Ah, yes. The famous Greek Gay Wars. How could I forget!

[Jordan Cleveland @Swisstorian]

@Moth3693 @PoliticaGabriel @DrLoupis How could we forget the Great Gay Wars of the previous centuries?

@punisheddog88 @JorgenRobinson @wolfhatfacts @BushidoSoulWon @Dani7749 Yo Spain is in Europe. 98% of Mexicans have Spanish ancestors.

@SirBylHolte Hear me out: they’re both too old. I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but maybe (MAYBE) electing geriatric old fucks *is* the problem.

@nintendobenzo @Eodyne1 @elonmusk The Spanish Inquisition

@DavidHarrisvil1 @dr_tgpeterson It’s just such a shocking statement, so absurd, that there’s no way in 2024 it could be true; but at the same time it is so “on brand” for 2024 it’s entirely believable and it’s only February first. Im very familiar with mod. history h-net. I simply assumed fewer astronauts

[Jordan Cleveland @Swisstorian]

@DavidHarrisvil1 @dr_tgpeterson Wait! Is this true?

[David Harrisville @DavidHarrisvil1]

@dr_tgpeterson Indeed. The last time I checked there were more astronaut jobs in the US than tenure-track jobs in my field (modern Europe).

@JoshuaPenduck @pschofie79 Just a side note: “Only a starred first” sounds like it’s not a big deal. But like it was a starred first from Cambridge.

[Jordan Cleveland @Swisstorian]

@JoshuaPenduck @pschofie79 2/ I think he only had a starred first but no less a professor and historian than one with a PhD.

[Jordan Cleveland @Swisstorian]

@Bibliiohraf @pschofie79 Not me grad/adjunct smoking on campus in every weird nook and cranny generously accepting every judgmental stare—an approach learned from my undergraduate advisor who every time used the “smoke free campus” sign to put out his cig (mind you, he was tenured and that was 2010).
