Sadly this meme continues to be hyper-relevant

There are certain screenshots, graphics or memes I save. Because I know I will be wanting to see it at other times. 🤮

@cobalt123 A friend and I had one of those slightly drunken chats about "which one sadly dead person would you resurrect and have amazing chats with"[1] and he mentioned a few notable people but I came up with Zappa and won hands-down.

1. We started off on the old one about "people, alive or dead, that it would be interesting to invite to a dinner-party" 😂

@cobalt123 Very few people wearing masks in stores, etc, here, anymore. People who have had it multiple times are shocked when they get sicker than before.

@cobalt123 The deranged right-wing lunatics over here infected the Communists over there, and now they are a problem together.

@cobalt123

The biggest threat to America today is not communism, it's moving toward a fascist theocracy, and everything that's happened during the Regan administration is steering us right down that pipe. [...] When you have a government that prefers a certain moral code derived from a certain religion and that moral code turns into legislation to suit one certain religious point of view, and if that code happens to be very very right wing, almost toward Attila the Hun.

Snopes · Did Frank Zappa Say Biggest Threat to US Democracy Is Fascist Theocracy?He was speaking on CNN in 1986 in a debate about censorship.

@cobalt123
My goodness ! In 1989 he wasn't reflecting on Oklahoma City bombing, neo-nazi militias, even Newt Gingrich & Limbaugh
[may they boil in pigshit forever]
weren't important

@RevPudDudley He said in Senate hearings in 1986. See a comment that refers to source and another here in the thread that links to a video.

@cobalt123 yes. But we cannot ignore the centrists who allow the right to exist, by not doing their jobs to serve the ppl. But bc they actually serve their elite donors. They make sure to kp this "two party" con to continue. Genocide, poison in everyday items, police brutality, injustice, climate change,, corruption, price gouging, etc. All done no matter which "side of the same coin" is in power

@cobalt123 hey, don't take it too seriously, he was only in it for the money !

@cobalt123 Well, maybe take it seriously after all...

@cobalt123
Sorry to disagree, Frank. It can be both at the same time.

@TheCentralScrutinizer Always was an incredible and knowledgeable spokesman for a majority of people who don’t believe in a right wing government that is part of a religious morality that make the laws for everyone else. I had maybe 3 albums and saw him once, back in 1974.
