I’ve walked the beaches of Normandy and the nearby cemeteries in silence. If those brave men and women (grandpas & grandmas) could see the world as it is today, especially the likes of trump and his kind, I feel sure they would gladly board those landing crafts once again, storm the beaches and give their lives to save the world, again.
How discouraging it is to read the thoughts/comments of likeminded people arguing and insulting each other here. trump and his moronic, uneducated, imbecilic dolts are winning.

The US did not enter WW2 as a moral crusade against fascism. Wars are fought over access to markets and resources, not ideas. Post war, the US itself became the biggest supporter of fascism around the world, arming and funding fascists from Europe to East Asia to South America. Operation Gladio, Condor, Pinochet, the Contras, the list goes on and on. The US has helped stomp out democracy around the world and prop up fascists in order to secure its financial interests, and it will do the same in the empirical core when deemed necessary.

Have you visited the beaches and cemeteries of Normandy. If not you should and count the number of Fascists buried there. The headstones are clearly marked. Except the ones that simply say “Unknown.”
The subject is Memorial Day. I am a child of the 50s – 60s, I know very well what Fascism is. So you are arguing that a Fascist Gov’t (The US) entered WW II to fight a Fascist Gov’t (Nazi Germany?) I can tell you, my uncle was a gunner on a LST and participated in 2 beach landings in Italy and was on his way to Okinawa when they dropped the bombs. I know he was not a Fascist. He was a young boy, and a hero.
I want to vomit when I see Nazis walking the streets of the US carrying flags and giving the salute. They are misguided, uneducated, easily led astray by manipulative characters that have infected the Country. War sucks and if the war mongers were were given AR-15s and sent to the battlefields they would shit their panties and cry for their mommies. Cruz, Hawley, Graham, Rubio, Scott, McConnell, and their ilk are the problem, not the bodies of the fallen that were sent to die. Take a break from your rhetoric and honor the brave men and women that died so you have the freedom to express it. Do you understand what Mr. Fish is saying?
Jordan
Linda you always give it away with your self-absorbed diatribes. I, I, I, me, me, me, boomer, boomer, boomer, liberal, liberal, liberal. Try harder.
Vic
I haven’t the slightest idea what the fuck you’re talking about. Linda? WTF? Listen Dude, you’re obviously misguided and off-topic. I refuse to engage in intelligent dialogue with someone not mentally equipped to do so who only wishes to veer-off into childish 21st Century Ha Ha I’m anonymous and you don’t know who I am bullshit.
It’s “people” like you that end up being accurately depicted by the talented Mr. Fish in a fitting panel. So thanks for playing, see you soon in the funny papers, and go fuck yourself.

You insufferable liberals. The “uneducated” are what’s wrong with the world? Not one corrupt politician, cut-throat CEO, blood-sucking banker or wall street trader is uneducated. They’re the most educated.
And the idea of people being “less evolved” or subhuman? Biological determinism? You have way more in common with fascists than you think. Eat shit.
Jordan
don’t forget all the super educated middle class boomers who voted for Biden in the 2020 primary. same people who voted for the complete unleashing of capitalism over the past half century ushering this hellscape we now live in.

Breaking: House committee says it will not pursue criminal charges in trail against fascist coup attempt. Typical liberals. I guess German liberals did lock up Hitler for a coup attempt. That is before they eventually ended up voting for him some years later.

DEAR EJH
HOW DARE YOU CALL ME A CENTRIST!! Do you know me? Have we met? No! You know why!! Because I am SOOO FAR LEFT that if you even tried to find me on the political landscape you would have to crawl so far up Che Guevera’s ass that you would convert to our way of life just due to the incredible Latin American anal scent of refried beans and quac!
Centrist?!
I am so far left that I made Dennis Kucinich re-read Ayn Rand.
I am so far left that in order to pass me the doobie you have to pass it ten thousand times to the right hand side.
I am so far left that just simply by your reading my words you will need to terrorize some brown skinned people just so you can feel Right again.
Centrist….

Beautiful essay! I had no idea you possessed such impressive bona fides. Congratulations! Still, you did not answer my question, which was why do people like you insist on labelling anyone further to the left a rightwinger?

EJH
Thank you! I enjoyed my little ditty. To your query…
(in an attempt to be genuine and sincere…)
I think you are applying a label to me that doesn’t apply. There are certainly fuck faces of all sorts hurling epithets for all sorts of reason. I ain’t one of them.
I would adore a world where there is a place where the people’s representatives can all meet and allow the free market place of ideas to align with the current will of the people.
I attack but usually via comedy. That’s my gig.

To all the grandpas who died fighting for the interests of their respective nation’s bourgeoisie. The Soviets were the only ones with any ideological beef.
The wealthy have always financed the rise of racist demagogues to keep us divided and weak.

all it would take is a one general strike, or maybe just a strike that inhibits Linda from getting the shitty wine she drinks for a week, and boom, she’d vote for a fascist.

,Jordan, you.are boring me. i don’t drink alcohol. Big yawn and a.small strike against You. . So dine! With dumb!
Paul Pot
Linda, I’d like to invite you to a gathering in one of my fields. There will be yacht rock and vegan lattes. Bono will be there. Bring your friends!
Linda#
Your work never disappoints. This one? Mind blown. You, Mr. Limpet, (i hope you get that reference) continues to get louder. Such a gift, Thanks,
And….
Happy Nearly Facist Day EVERYBODY. Phew, are we lucky we have Trump, a fearless, honest, reasonable GOP leader of his unquestioning disciples.
(creepy but true story…my mother’s grandparents, killed by Hitler’s family, grew up in the same village as my family did). Too embarrassed to say that in public before, but fuck it! Never would have gone there knowing that. And if I could afford the willies, I’d have them.
I am celebrating “Death Day” in the Viking traditions of raiding, stealing, raping, taking other whites for slaves, sacrificing a human or 2, tripping on psychedelic mushrooms, shit faced on ale and the grand finale? Being proud of the flowing blood. (kinda like the pointless, endless wars today.) All Heil the Allfather. The vikings made phenomenal KOOLAID!
And then the decadent ”grilled” feast! Whatcha cookin?
Linda#1
Hey, Paul Pot, my 90 year old mom is a Holocaust survivor. So disgusting you chose that user name. But it does show clearly your lack of empathy or humanity.. Empty souls like yours are just that, empty souls. Nothing positive to offer, especially on this site.
Three Simple questions for simple brains for all of you. Do you have any people that you love? Or is your choice of ”love” a cache of weapons and ammo and kevlar at the ready, just in case?
And why are you following Mr. Fish? He’s your enemy, isn’t he?
Dead children and teachers trying to protect them against all odds and losing, is not ever funny or pithy or clever. (Which none of you are, at all.) I hate to diminish my credibility, but considering your lack of well, anything redeemable…FUCK YOU ALL. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
Chairperson Mao
Hey there, Linda. I heard you’re an avid reader of reactionary bull…I mean… an avid reader of great books that smart people read. I know a group of enthusiastic students who would love to discuss these books with you. Please compile a list of your favs and let me know where they can meet you. Cheers!

Would love to take you up on it but after the likes of you have decided which books are suitable all that i have left to read are Highlights Magazines and the New York Post.

Ha! freedom of the press. That is, the freedom of the capitalist class to own and control everything you see. There is no more effective propaganda than American propaganda.
EJH
Why do centrists like Linda/Boxcar/Granddaughter of the Shoah or whatever she/he is calling him/herself today that think they are on the left insist on labelling anyone further to the left a rightwinger? That has become commonplace. When did this start happening? I guess such simple minds cannot process the idea that someone might be opposed to both sides of the Dem/Rep corporate party.
Jordan
most Americans have never heard a proper critique of capitalism. People are encouraged to think the system is secondary to the wills of the individuals inside of it. Any healthy opposition is then directed towards perceived bad individuals, leaving the system free to continue on its path. Fighting symptoms not the cause, and changing nothing. Also, If you’ve grown up in middle class America you have an incentive to not question the system because it’s provided a comfortable material lifestyle relatively speaking. Lots of goodies, but unhappy, atomized freaks nonetheless.
