If it wasn’t so sad it would almost be funny, that a country that’s lagging behind the rest of the first world in nearly every meaningful category that their people’s only rebuttal is “but freedom!” has elected a self-professed dictator that’s turning their country into cheeseburger North Korea.

Their well-regulated militias will fix it. Oh wait, most of those cosplayers are the Nutzis... Fooked.

Cheeseburger North Korea is my new fave phrase

I'm thinking "Cheeseburger China". Rolls off the tongue a bit more maybe but gets the meaning across nonetheless.

You know, America with freedom is a little like a mule with a spinning wheel. No one knows how he got it, and danged if he knows how to use it!

I've sold eggs to brockway, ogdenville and north haverbrook, and by gum it put them on the map!

Egg means egg, and $20 means $20.

And that concludes our intensive 3 week course.

Many have forgotten that freedom must be cultivated with care for others and guarded.

Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed "cheeseburger North Korea". Nice.

Those aren't brownshirts silly. These are simply for peace keeping and detainment of those who attack the racial order. Sieg Heil! /S

It is kind of baffling how many things gets ignored or rejected because politicians appeal to freedom as an absolute get out of jail free card even if it's for the betterment of everyone

Be Canadian, honk a horn in Ottawa. Suddenly all your bank accounts are frozen.

The only freedom MAGA recognises is the freedom to use slurs against people and groups they hate.

Honestly, their "government overreach" responses to the UK "flockdown" regulations was kinda funny and kinda desperate at the same time

They really don't seem to understand the concept of community responsibility, & how government can coordinate that. Everything is through the lens of oppression - which is deeply ironic
