Disavowed it? Those kids should have been given in-school suspension where they were forced to really study the history of that time period.

I did a paper on it in college and the details kept me awake for months.

Read an interview with Michael Douglas years ago where he talked about how stunned he was to meet so many people who thought Gordon Gekko was someone to emulate.

Douglas was cursed w/an inability to play a villain convincingly. He just can't be hated.

Stories like this are how Luigis are made.

I learn more history from you than I ever did in high school (or college, for that matter).

This was just incredible. Thank you.

And dangerous, frankly. I wonder how many people overdose just trying to get a night of rest? Thousands, I'd imagine.

I'd be embarrassed to publicly admit I was this ignorant of a pretty basic component of the legal system, yet here you are.

You don't happen to have a book recommendation on this topic do you? I only have cursory knowledge, but I would like to know more.

What drove me back onto this platform is the # of people on X saying "f**k my fellow hungry Americans" w/zero realization that SNAP doesn't subsidize the poor. It subsidizes greedy corps that don't pay a living wage.

When will Americans reach the "we are finally completely fed up with this bullshit" level of fighting back?

That's what I want to know.
