@Rainmaker1973 Richard Savoie is known for painting cityscapes of several Canadian cities. His sold works frequently feature Montreal, Quebec City, and Calgary. This is more than likely a Canadian city perhaps one the few mentioned above.

@McLorviin @DougC33085 @SeeRacists Yet here you are, replying to criticize everyone else for replying...Make it make sense

@KingOfKingsNo7 @RMB1324 @timruss2 @KingOfKingsNo7 you a coward … unblock me and we can take this off the internet… say it to my face punk!

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@KingOfKingsNo7 @RMB1324 @timruss2 When facts fail, you reach for bile. That reflex — not your politics — is why you sound MAGA-adjacent. I’m citing history; you’re auditioning for dinner with Marjorie Taylor Greene.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@KingOfKingsNo7 @RMB1324 @timruss2 When someone resorts to “STFU,” it’s a public admission that they’ve run out of facts, sources, and comprehension.

If you had a coherent counterargument, you’d make it. Instead, you’re flailing at tone because the substance beat you. You emotional? Need a hug?

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@ARSmith1111 @FEkfeldt @timruss2 The swastika was the official symbol of Nazi Germany — and directly tied to the Holocaust. Its meaning is inseparable from that documented use.
One of ours, all of yours—has zero historical record of Nazi use — no speeches, no propaganda, nothing. Reappropriation requires proof.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@micread23 @Bluto78 @timruss2 Being used in law enforcement doesn’t mean it originated there, and it absolutely doesn’t make it a Nazi quote. Those are three separate questions that keep getting collapsed into one.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@micread23 @Bluto78 @timruss2 It’s used informally at line-of-duty death funerals, memorials, union statements, and mutual-aid messaging to mean: if one officer is harmed, the entire community of officers responds and supports the family.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 That sentence is just gibberish. It strings together an insult and a claim without making a coherent point. You win! Good night!

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 I cited real historical origins — you offered a punchline.

And for the record, I’m not a Trump supporter or sympathizer.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 Let explain this to you like I would to a sixth grader.

I wasn’t making up new words. I was talking about where the idea comes from.

A long time ago, workers used phrases like that to mean “we help each other.” I was explaining that history.

That’s called giving background.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 Oh, of course. Your assertion alone settles centuries of documented history. Case closed.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 You’re inventing a straw-man version of what I said and then arguing against it. That isn’t integrity — it’s a comprehension problem.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 You’re not correcting a quote — you’re ignoring the point. When someone fixates on syllables instead of substance, that’s not rigor, that’s intellectual deafness. Bless your heart!

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 You asserted Nazi origin. I provided documented labor-movement history. When evidence didn’t validate your narrative, you pivoted to insinuation. That’s not debate — that’s intellectual evasion.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 You didn’t catch me changing a quote — you caught yourself making a claim you can’t source. Show me a real Nazi citation for that phrase or admit you’re just laundering outrage into fake history.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@tmorello There’s zero evidence this slogan has anything to do with Nazis. What it does show is Trump’s militarization of DHS — turning a civilian agency into a paramilitary intimidation machine. The slogan means ‘touch one of us and the state crushes you.’ That’s the real authoritarianism

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 I’d suggest returning to football commentary. It’s far more aligned with your level of analysis.

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 So the real question isn’t “Has someone defined it for me?”
It’s “Who uses this phrase, and what does it signal when they do?”

[David Van Gough @UtterDavidX]

@Buckmaster_FP @timruss2 You’re confusing dictionary definitions with social meaning. Many slogans have no neutral dictionary entry — their meaning comes from context and pattern of use (just like “Thin Blue Line” or “Back the Blue”).
