    Go fash, lose cash.

    Complete tangent:

    “PublicSquare is basically the Green Book, but for conservatives,” this TikTok user, who goes by dapper.delinquent, says in his video. “The Green Book was a book passed around Black communities that was a list of stores and businesses that were safe for Black People to use. PublicSquare is the same thing for conservatives.”

    If you make an analogy, then have to explain the thing you are comparing the first thing with, what is the point of the analogy?

      The explanation is about as redundant as a third wheel. You know, the awkward extra person tagging along with a couple on a date.

      Not only that, but what the fuck is wrong with conservatives that don’t feel “safe” at other places? How are they even the least fucking bit in danger of anything?

          You’re not even joking

          It’s the same internationally

          There are also some Right wing people on construction sites here in Australia who can never accept responsibility. And it’s always right wing

      it’s a historical example , which not everyone is aware of. those who know understand faster, those who don’t learn more about events that actually took place.
