Happy July 4th America!

Another Shameful Holiday for a Disgraceful Country

The United States has many questionable holidays. There’s Thanksgiving, which whitewashes the European genocide of the aboriginal natives. Veteran’s Day - a salute to our armed forces who have murdered millions of people and or were murdered themselves. After passage of Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill though July 4th would have to be the worst. It’s the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence - a document written by rich white racists who didn’t want to pay taxes. Sound familiar?

If you have young children let them enjoy their hot dogs and watermelon and fireworks today. They are too young to appreciate the horrors of our current situation in the United States, let alone the completely ghastly, monstrous genocide that we are financing in Palestine that the media and both political parties fully support.

Adults, however, better think very very carefully about how they can help fix this disaster. There are literally fascists in combat gear carrying automatic weapons and wearing masks snatching people off the streets and forcing them into concentration camps. Even the slave-owning founding fathers would not have approved of that.

This is very scary, but now is the time to finally find some courage. I’ve got plans. Do you?

Hundreds of cars drove by this man in distress on their way to buying burgers and “frosty swirls” … and did nothing. I gave him five bucks. Chump change, but at least I took the time to stop and talk to him.
