The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yesterday, I settled in to watch a football game that happened to be on the Fox Sports network.

At one point, they ran an ad by some organization (America Next, I think) about liberals being the new racists.

I watched the ad and came to the following conclusions:

1) The ad featured very short clips from 2 prominent Democrat women. Apparently, nothing will make MAGA men shit their pants like a strong woman.

2) Apparently the ad producers forgot that when given the green flag from the SCOTUS, a bunch of southern white MAGA folks gerrymandered a bunch of black voting districts out of existence. In fact, the ONLY districts eliminated were black districts. Now, even John Roberts, who has his head stuck firmly up his white ass, knows that was racist.

3) MAGA obviously doesn’t have a clue, or any desire, to fix the problems Americans are concerned about. The ad wasn’t about lowering the cost of food, or lowering the cost of gas, or ending a foolhardy war, or making healthcare more affordable. It was about the only idea that MAGA knows will rile up their base; hate and divisiveness.

4) I immediately changed channels after the ad. I refuse to watch Fox Sports unless they apologize for running the racist ad. But what happens if the Super Bowl is on Fox Sports? No problem, I’ll watch it on the Spanish speaking network. Even though I only understand a few Spanish words, watching the World Cup on the Spanish speaking network was a hell of a lot more fun than watching it in English!
