    I know... you can't talk to a liberal about a number 2 lead pencil without them bringing up racism or Trump hate. Its obnoxious.

    Orwell noted "First, corrupt the language. What follows naturally is the corruption of thought processes."

    There is no "you guys".
    White people are *gasp* individuals. So are balck people. So are all people. You are not in any way responsible for anything anyone else did who happened to be the same race as yourself.

    Thanks for the Orwell quote. If there ever was a prophet....

    One of my favorites especially in regard to WW 2 is:

    "Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past."
    George Orwell


    Enjoy your weekend,
