I never considered that the conservative mantra of "fiscal responsibility" and "ending wasteful government spending" was so deeply rooted in white supremacy. I mean, I kind of did with the racist depiction of a "welfare queen" and whatnot during the Reagan Administration, but not to the scale that Cody describes. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: kissu <cite>ZMythos posted [p:956249581] in The Racist...

Like, I get that it's a metaphor for moderate libs, but I agree. The voice is way too obtrusive for me to just idly listen to. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: kissu <cite>ZMythos posted [p:956249825] in The Racist...
