I'm offended. He should've said "to whom"

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 20 points 2 weeks ago

I'm sidestepping some parts of his past for obvious reasons, but you get the idea.

[-] hansolo@lemmy.today 9 points 2 weeks ago

My favorite version of the same

[-] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 5 points 2 weeks ago

Ooh, I have a dukes of hazzard model ive had for years because I didnt want to throw away a perfectly good model, and I also didnt want to make a racist shitbox. This is a solid option.

[-] ultranaut@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I was recently watching a few episodes of Dukes of Hazzard and them Duke boys is woke. Despite the flag issue, they were very against bigotry of any kind.

[-] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 3 points 2 weeks ago

They were! But the car is still a racist shitbox.

I've got some solid ideas thanks to a few other folks in here, so maybe I'll be able to have some fun getting it done soon

[-] hansolo@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

Oh hell yes, please do this. There's a lot of options for subtle changes if you search images of "general grant car."

[-] Physnrd@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Keep it orange and add flames. Then it's the "General Sherman"

[-] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 2 points 2 weeks ago

I kind of want to name it "Northern Aggression", and find some good small pride stickers and rainbow pinstripe....and maybe an antifascist action sticker for the hood?

Well I'm going to end up going down an ADHD rabbit hole of indecision on this for a while....

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

make a windshield sticker across the top that reads "THE ROAR OF NORTHERN AGGRESSION"

Rear window might be better.

Yoooooo

There is room in this world an alternate universe Fast and Furious franchise where it's nothing but buck fucking wild meme muscle cars driven by a montle crew of drag queens and furries, doing lefty adventure shit.

And it would demand a mighty stable of queer as fuck muscle cars, going from the subtle and prim and not quite proper, to rainbow pinstripe Trans-Ams that lives drives into the backend of a rolling base modeled after Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

[-] hansolo@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

I would call the 1969 Challenger the "General Glee"

[-] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 2 points 2 weeks ago

......I would watch that nonstop.

The worst thing Sherman ever did was stop

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

His interactions with native Americans is at least up there.

I agree that they should have let him destroy more of the slavery infrastructure, though.

[-] TassieTosser@aussie.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

We need a shermanposting sub on Lemmy.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, but at least we have one in the Fediverse:

https://piefed.social/c/shermanposting

Having said that, if you make a community, I'll help mod for it.

See also "The civil war was about states rights" "States rights to what?"

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

I'm pretty sure the civil war was about the northern states' right to not capture and return escaped slaves

[-] axexrx@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Funny story. Back in the day, Massachusetts found a loophole- there was a case in my town, where a couple slave catchers showed up, and grabbed the wrong guy- the son of a buisness owner and prominent black family.

They were immediately besset upon by a mob, and got thrown in jail. There were riots, and people threatening to burn down the jail ( a 1room shack with just the 2 slavers in it)

When they were brought in for arraignment, judge decided on a summary judgment, claiming it was too dangerous for them, to either be released or held in custody for a trial.

He opted to impress them I to service, on a whaling ship, which was a 90% black crew.

Yep, he litterally made them slaves ri a black man. They were both 'lost at sea' within 2 months.

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

This is like "it's turtles all the way down" except it's fucked-up legal situations all the way down.

Legal slavery 👉 Legal slave-hunting 👉 Caught the wrong guy 👉 Threat of mob justice 👉 No trial 👉 Impressed to service 👉 Legal whale hunting 👉 Almost certainly murdered at sea

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 14 points 2 weeks ago

Using their beloved rebel flag as the noose is the cherry on top.

[-] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 7 points 2 weeks ago

Totally. It's their "heritage" so it serves well.

[-] abigscaryhobo@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

"Oh who the fuck am I offending!? The Nazis??"

Just reminded me of that quote from the Hellsing abridged series. Extrajudicial murder is still not good.

[-] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

Doktor: "It looks like our forces are getting slaughtered."

Major: " Aw, who gives a shit? They're Nazis."

It’s offensive to our lord and savior Charlie Kirk who died for our right to die from gun violence

18 U.S. Code § 2381:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death

[-] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 5 points 2 weeks ago

big if true

[-] Aneb@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

This is secretly the best ad ever. Where can I buy it?

[-] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Where is this dude wearing this? Pretty sure he’d risk getting shot where I live.

[-] jfrnz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Find a new place to live

[-] Saledovil@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

Eh, he's likely already at risk because of his skin color.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

"In trouble" how? "You can't wear that because you didn't bring enough to share." At least give everyone a RedBubble link!

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

Got to be careful wearing a shirt like that. The idiot criminal president just declared being against fascism is actually being a terrorist.

[-] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

At a certain point, the word “terrorist” becomes less threatening. We are currently at the stage where my niece refusing to pick up her toys makes her a terrorist.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Remember! Do not negotiate with terrorists!

What, were the Klan gonna be friendly to him before?

I want to work on HR to call them in, then high five then and let them hang out instead of having to work, bring drinks too. then ask them to look sad when they leave my office

[-] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 3 points 2 weeks ago

"You're incinting violence" "You make it sound like it's a bad thing"

[-] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 8 points 2 weeks ago

Here's a recent list of lynchings in America. Many are deemed "a suicide". https://newsone.com/playlist/black-people-lynched-recent-years/

So this shirt is just suicide awareness in that case.

sign me the fuck up I will wear that shit every day.

[-] s1ndr0m3@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Found one on eBay. Just search, "Kill the klan." There are a bunch of sellers and options.
