We used to be a real country
Shout-out to the guy who replied to this that the USA was never real but always a bully.
He must be great fun at parties.

I really wish everyone would stop making fun of the people they don't like based on their physical appearance.
We really need to collectively grow up from this high-school bully mindset.
When you use appearance instead of ideas and behaviors to criticize someone, even someone deserving mockery, you are also shooting at everyone who might look like them, even the ones that might be incredibly good people.
There is more than enough content to talk against when it comes to the tyrants that currently surround us. Talk against their ideas, their words, and their actions. Be relentless for that. But their physical appearance is irrelevant to their moral deficiencies.
Mock their words, but not their looks.
@Em0nM4stodon I asked a liberal not to use "mentally ill" in a derogatory way to describe Trump, because I have a mental illness. She got really mad at me.
California is big enough to have its own laws of nature.

Folks interested in science should be interested in Retraction Watch, which is now 15 years old. Started by medical journalists Ivan Oransky & Adam Marcus, the site is the only one (that I know of, anyway) that uncovers and tracks scientific retractions, errors, and other controversies. My best friend of 27 years happens to work there too, but that's besides the point! They do vital work no one else is doing. Their year-end summary is impressive.
