@atensnut Answering the phone was exciting when it was on the wall. It was almost always someone you wanted to talk to. Now it's almost always someone trying to get money, either soliciting products and services or colleting debt
@romanhelmetguy It used to be blue for the incumbent president's party and red for the challenger. In the 90s, as the Dems went more commie, they kept the color blue to distance themselves from the red scare
It's amazing that these decrepit neocon imbeciles have gotten every major issue wrong for 40 years and just absolutely insist on keeping their streak of unbroken wrongness alive at all costs. Yes, 27 million people immigrated here between 1880 and 1924. The difference is that they came here legally, there was no welfare state for them to leach off of, they were not flooding in from dysfunctional lawless third world hellholes, and they actually desired to assimilate into American culture. Oh and we had 250 million fewer people living in the country at the time. So in other words, it was nothing like our current situation. At all. Not remotely.
