oh my fucking god. this is ridiculous. SERIOUSLY? is there going to be a SINGLE institution in this country willing to stand up against fascism????????
People wonder how Germany was taken over by the Nazis. This is how.
This is the Fascist States of America and will be until someone stands up. "Home of the Brave" huh.
Home of the depraved.
I was about to say Harvard... Googled just to make sure. Apparently I missed it a couple of days ago when they bent over
columbia actually
Nope.
I stayed home today and The View seems to be on it.
I feel this so much.
Disgraceful.
You are a museum, a place to see history as it actually was. Caving to a dick-tator... Just wow...
Fuck if I'll ever go to the Smithsonian after this. The Pedo is just going to pull your funding anyways so wtf???
Jesus fucking Christ, what is going on lately with people just buckling under the slightest amount of pressure from Trump? Fight back you goddamn pussies.
Seriously it's so pathetic. People will just bend over and take it.
The world needs more asshole leftists who don't take shit from anyone. Far too many dickheads are on the wrong side of the political spectrum.
The fucking fragility. Pathetic.
Might as well stop the whole operation then. A museum's most precious good is its credibility. If visitors can't trust that the information you present is factual, why should they visit?
Even if part of your funding is at risk, is this worth it? Cut costs, do a fundraiser, forego pay of leadership personnel, if you need to, but without credibility, you're no longer running a museum but a theme park.
Who were the snowflakes again?
Who controls the past now, controls the future.
Who controls the present now, controls the past.
Not too long in the future:
The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.
Also from 1984 by George Orwell
That book, along with Animal Farm, should be a mandatory book to read in school.
As of early-2000s, both novels were required reading in my high school central Texas curriculum.
What a shithole country.
A banana republic is a country with an economy of state capitalism, where the country is operated as a private commercial enterprise for the exclusive profit of the ruling class. Typically, a banana republic has a society of extremely stratified social classes, usually a large impoverished working class and a ruling class plutocracy, composed of the business, political, and military elites.The ruling class controls the primary sector of the economy by exploiting labor.
How delicate do you have to be to deny reality so routinely?
Trump-level delicate
Bigly if true.
Sure would be funny if Smithsonian Patrons kept changing it back.
"Congress has only Impeached a President four times, 1/2 of them against the same President.'
Time to get that Streisand effect rolling!
Never thought I'd see the day when the Smithsonian would lose all its credibility. Bootlickers and cowards.
People are surprised to find out that this is the reality under capitalism. When everything is tied to pandering to the upper class, you working class suckers always get the short end of the stick. Even when it comes to "liberal institutions". If their profits are gone, they are gone. Their existence is intrinsically tied to pandering to the upper class. This is why capitalism is intrinsically fascistic.
Should have just closed the exhibit “due to funding”
OUR APOLOGIES, THE EXHIBIT ON IMPEACHMENT HAS BEEN CLOSED DUE TO SOMEONE BEING A WHINY-ASS LITTLE BITCH
It's going to be fun rewriting history after this stupid bastard dies off. That day can't come soon enough.
It won't just be him. It'll be everyone that was surrounding him or placed by this administration. The cancer runs deep and has metastasized.
He might have created the movement, but the support of it didn't magically appear. The truth is that this rhetoric and mindset never went away. Trump is an idiot that rallied them, imagine an intelligent person instead after him... I hope the next generations don't follow what the dying out ones do
I get it... put it back as soon as he's gone. Hopefully it'll be 3 or more by then, with a final successful one
Bro. He’s a child rapist. They’re not gonna impeach him. They’re not gonna remove him. He’s a child rapist and they’d all gladly lick his asshole live on the House floor.
the people funding trump, is also funding the gop, and DINOS.
Put it back as soon as he's gone?
My dude. America has yet to put a single fucking thing back after a Republican takes it.
Abortions rights. Voting rights. Workers rights. Right to Healthcare. Right to education. Right to transparent government funding (Citizens United) Right to privacy (Patriot Act) Right to fair information. Right to have our taxes go towards social benefits rather than Reaganomics.
If you're waiting for anything to change back, no matter how small, it's not.
Fascism is there stay in America for decades to come.
Yeah... it sucks, and makes me want to scream
You get what?
I feel like this has less to do with changing history and more to do with Trump's fragile ego. I'm not saying that they aren't trying to rewrite history and that is absolutely disgusting, just that this one doesn't really make any sense when you really take a step back and think about it. If anything an actual strong person would wear it as a badge of honor to prove how right he is that the "deep state" is still trying to get him, which Trump has done in the past. I say this is an indicator that he's in panic mode trying to fix his image right now which is kinda pathetic.
Slippery slope.
Conversations about impeachment just aren't complete without the man who was impeached the best and the most!
Turning the Smithsonian into the Time Masheen from idiocracy
They’d better put that orange cunt back in the exhibit after he fucks off.
Republicans are filthy traitor swine and it is your duty to do what is in your power to make them suffer.
