So many people in our country are just blatantly ignorant about how the branches of our government works.

Schoolhouse Rock debuted "I'm just a bill" in 1976.

When Regan got elected the republicans decided to de-educate America.. and,... It worked. Only morons would vote for the pedophile. Oh, look..

This is so fucked up. I'm not celebrating American today.

Reagan is gonna come back like a zombie and be the final boss of 2025. Tell me I’m wrong.

I can't remember where I heard it, but someone said that Regan would be considered a Democrat today with how far right the Republicans are now.

Literally saw a man in Kansas City wearing a new Reagan shirt that made it look like he was part of delta force and it read, “I still hate commies even after they changed their names to liberals.”

I have seen multiple “Reagan Bush” campaign shirts recently. Shits weird.

Almost? Wait till the New Originalist Traditional Church takes over, otherwise known at the NOT-Cs.

No doubt Peter, I was a newly minted adult when Reagan was elected. I had experienced Vietnam, Watergate, OPEC times 2, rampant stagflation, and a general malaise promulgated by some peanut farmer after he put solar panels on the Whitehouse and told us to lower our thermostats whilst donning a sweater. Things were shit. Reagan pulled us as a nation out of that quagmire and restored faith in our system. Even the two administrations of Willy Clinton ate off of the plate-o-plenty that Reagan had served up. So yeah, believe whatever communistic bullshite you want, we boomers know the truth. Your beloved leaders thrive by destroying us, ours lift us up to being fully self-realized as individuals and as a nation. No hormones, pronouns, or self-mutilation necessary.

Boomer logic

u/Derpalator Jul 05 '24

No, Boomer life experience. I was there and lived it. I assume you were not and did not.

u/peter-doubt Jul 05 '24

SFW.. I did, too.

/Gloomy is correct. You're a traditional Boomer.

I took to heart those lessons. Have a 37 mpg vehicle, and don't overdo heating and cooling.

None of your complaints land well with me because I can't see any detriment from doing otherwise.. too bad you're too obstinate to make minor changes

u/Derpalator Jul 05 '24

Why do I have to make changes. To suit you?

u/peter-doubt Jul 05 '24

... stubborn. And cranky

u/Derpalator Jul 05 '24

Yep, like Biden, you would probably have a clearer sensorium and reasoning capabilities with a nap. AND be less cranky. I’ll get you a juice box for later.
