yes this x 100

About the ONLY video from Prager University that I agree with: The cause of the civil war:

Getting rid of Gone With the Wind - Very Dumb
Getting rid of Cops (tv show) Brilliant. How much more can you rehash dudes in wife beaters getting frisked

There are several, but I'm not sure if they've been updated. The name-change was an interesting attempt, but it seems his sour personality raises enough questions to ferret out his legacy.

Common practice loved by SCABs everywhere. I know of several at United... I know of two who went through several name change attempts. But hey, someone always knows.

I know of one that bragged to her EAL crashpad buddies how she looked forward to SCABbing at EAL with full support and encouragement of her CAL SCAB boyfriend. At United now but uses a different name.

So what about the crazy names they used for taxiways in ORD pre standardization? I only remember taxi via the car park or something like that.

I remember DTW back in the late 90s when they only had 4 runways but all those jacked up taxiways between (then) 21L and 21C. If memory serves one was called “Dog” and another “Wolf.” Printed on the 10-9 that way. Think they were on the SE corner on the way to the FBO there. Will we be renaming the “Ranger” VOR at DFW? The Texas Ranger statue is being removed from DAL because of the....not my words....racist heritage of the Texas Ranger law enforcement organization.

I never understood why the NY hockey team went with Rangers. Rangers in NYC?? But then again, what's a Dodger! Sorry.

From now on we have to use only team names that represent inanimate objects. Like Red Wings or Maple Leafs. Or animals. But only if they don’t eat other animals. No Predators. Ducks...well, okay. Blackhawks? You’ve got some explaining to do.

Correction...WHITE progressive democrat policy and governance. Lol.

So who bears the responsibility?

Oh thats right. Orange man bad.

Its hilarious...the children of potus are villified as spawn of the devil....

Yet in 2000 the democrats nominated and nearly elected to potus....a son of dixie...and.the child of a segragationist.

institutional racisim is there. You just have to know where to look for it.

no one brought up the “orange man” but you. And of course he’s not the root cause of racism or harsh police practices, but he does fan the flames of division on these issues and has had a fraught history with racial issues...as have many others of various political stripes.

-trump org racist housing policies
-full page ad to get death penalty for Central Park 5
-s hole countries and their huts
-obama birtherism
-“name one successful country that has a black president “
-SOB football players kneeling
-promoting cops roughing up suspects
-“looting starts shooting starts”
-threatening protesters with police dogs
-rapist Mexicans
-unfair judge bc immigrant parents
-Muslim gold star mom can’t speak

im sure there’s more. And if it helps you sleep at night trump use to be a Dem

im sure you’ll rebut that some Dem politicians have troubled pasts, and you’d be right. The big difference is by in large they typically apologize and try to move on and unite people. “Orange man” doubles down
