Tea Party Nation?


"A nation is a society united by a delusion about its ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours." - William Ralph Inge

those fuckers had a stall at my campus. i saw it on the way to my class and i loudly said "Fucking god damnit" and grumbled past them and into my class.

i was planning on going to talk to them after class but they were gone!

i had hopes of hearing them say their shit in person because so far ive only read about them and watched video clips.

then on the way home there was a license plate that said REVOLTN(or something close to that) and i though ok, cool... but then there wa a sticker that said "end the fed" :cursing:

next time i see them im going to listen to what they say, then either troll them or debate them.

my bets are that if im wearing my ushanka(i wear it in cold/rainy weather since i dont have a hood) theyre going to call me a commie. :lol: ill play dumb then ill drop the S and C word.

President Obama told Americans not to go to Las Vegas so that is exactly where Tea Party Nation will be holding our next event!

Yup, the revolution of two year olds that are just experimenting with saying the word "no."

President Obama told Americans not to go to Las Vegas so that is exactly where Tea Party Nation will be holding our next event! Did he really say something to this effect? I was in Vegas last month and there was a big hubub in the local media because the mayor refused to meet with Obama (even though neither Clinton nor Bush ever went to that city during their presidency). Hmm, opportunist much, mayor?

Anyway all their crazy (and often race-baiting) lies about Obama make it even harder for us to present a real critique of Obama from a working-class perspective because it makes a lot of workers and young people and people of color really defensive and unwilling to admit that there's anything wrong with what Obama's doing, or else (in their mind) they are giving the bigots an inch.

These people are absolute hypocrites. They quote the likes of Thomas Jefferson, but they abide by ideals absolutely contrary to those that he himself believed in, let alone the ideals of the American revolution.

Let's also not forget that Thomas Jefferson's views were impacted by the Enlightenment, which was probably one of the most socialist epochs in human history.

i thanked your post for pointing out their hypocracy. but i dout that enlightened despotism as practiced by peter the gread ant tsarina catherine the great were "socialistic"

if you could give examples then it would be greatly appreciated. i just dont see how a monarch could be in any way good for the lowest socio-economic class. obviously the proletariat hardly existed in peters time.

The Enlightenment was the era of proto-liberalism more than anything else. It is very telling that most monarchs in 18th century Europe in fact seemed to believe in some sort of secular enlightened-despotism (liberalism without civil liberties). There was hardly any regent in any country who sincerely believed in the traditional feudalist ideology ("King by God's grace") any more...
