Black Death was also way overblown. Boccaccio was a shill for the Florentine oligarchs.

The fetishization of the subversive—the next Galileo, or Einstein, or Tesla—is something PragerU is intent on teaching not just to adults but to kids as well.

Around the world, at least 31 democratic leaders who committed similar crimes have been jailed or banned from office since 2010. The failure to hold Trump accountable in the US was a unique and systemic failure of our institutions and political culture.

Why are the sheeple wearing masks outside? Don’t they know they’re not needed out there?
Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference.

Just a reminder of one of the things Joe Biden did for us last Pride. He pardoned all the LGBT+ service members wrongly convicted. We've gone from this, to a President and administration that seeks to ban LGBT+ service members all together. The two sides are NOT the same. #Pride #LGBT
