    I'm out of the 40's and got to watch it all. This is not the way it was supposed to go. We had a very good economy. On minimum wage I could live & pay my bills, Go to college after getting a world class education in public school. If things had been different I would have bought that house. No this was not available to all, civil right movement was doing fine on that account. Nixon brought politics by fear. Had it gone the way we wanted US would have been like the Nordic nations

      @VeroniqueB99 I agree wholeheartedly with the message, but will never find this image anything but tasteless and surely triggering for some

          @jade_smith @VeroniqueB99 Your comment is triggering. FFS those were 3000 people, just a US war Tuesday. People who get triggered by towers live with golden spoons unaware of the amount of corpses that litter their daily life. Get a grip man.

                Backstory worth knowing!

                - The cartoon was drawn by Marc Murphy for the Louisville Courier-Journal — where it was rejected. Minor detail: Drawn 7 years ago — on 4/25: https://www.threads.com/@professormarcmurphy/post/DI2VBlXN-7_/drawn-6-years-go-today-it-was-rejected-and-called-unfair-and-alarmist

                - Marc Murphy is not just a sharp-eyed, award-winning political cartoonist for the Courier-Journal. He is also a practicing attorney and Professor of Practice at the University of Louisville Louis D. Brandeis School of Law: https://profiles.louisville.edu/marc.murphy

                Enjoy his wit: https://www.threads.com/@professormarcmurphy

                  @VeroniqueB99 és una molt bona imatge que no mostra, però, una d'anterior més important i tot: la que ha fet possible a Trump volar amb aquest avió construit gràcies a aquestes normes legals i aquesta constitució. I, en aquest cas, podria ser que algunes persones no acabin de comprendre la totalitat i arribin a conclusions equivocades.

                        @skaphle let’s keep the discourse respectful and refrain ad hominem arguments, please. I appreciate the point you’re making, I just think using this *specific* event in a political cartoon has an actual, unintended impact, even I agree with its message. One can hold both thoughts at the same time

                                    I hate to say this but you all missed the timing. This started just after FDR passed away. The GOP tried the first shot with McCarthy then Nixon picked it up and added the christian right, then Reagan picked it up and added corporations to the list of GOP supporters. K-Street, through Bush till today. Trump is just the Cherry on top for the Right. They, all along, have wanted Control with no responsibility. So there I fixed it. Peace

                                      1/2 Here is what happened. After FDR the Right lost power, wealth lost it's control, Religion lost sway. Most everything we have was developed in the time between WWII & the 70's under very liberal guidence. Nixon Married Fundy Christian with the right, Reagan married into Corporations. There has not been anything new since then, all is just minor improvements. So here we are pushing superstition & stupid, Read the 1st chapter of Demon Haunted World.

                                        2/2 I didn't catch on till K-street watching major corps retiring fireing the older wiser folks & hiring kids at < half the pay. I was raised with science, it was all around us, Polio, mumps, measels, Rubella Vaccines, Surgical tecniques, heart, lungs . . And here we are following a complete moron & people follow, my god, where did all the flowers go. . . $1T for war & idiot wants 1/2 more, think of just how far we could have gotten on that money.
                                        peace
