Season 1, 1975 - after 47 years, it's probably time to move on, just saying.Chevy Chase burning the flag....
I'm laughing at the humor, SNL laughing at Gerald Ford stumbling about...is not unpatriotic.Season 1, 1975 - after 47 years, it's probably time to move on, just saying.

BURNING THE FLAG IS. JUST SAYING.....
Pointing out Joe Biden stumbling through life is FUNNY. It's not like burning the flag.
Ragging on the folks in Washington has been going on since 1776. Geezzzzusss.
Douchebag.Snowflake.
Burning the flag is a constitutional right I thought, people get too wrapped up in symbolism. Better to burn the flag to express displeasure with the government than, idk, killing a police officer on the steps of congress while waving the flag.I'm laughing at the humor, SNL laughing at Gerald Ford stumbling about...is not unpatriotic.

So is making fun of the President...I was responding to this bit of wisdom complaining about Biden being laughed at...Burning the flag is a constitutional right I thought, people get too wrapped up in symbolism.

Policy wise there is a lot I disagree with. But somehow these sort of personal attacks always feel a bit unpatriotic to me. Idk. Same as watching someone burn a flag.
Murdering police officers was never part of the post I was responding about...
There I fixed it for you.What I'm saying is burning the flag and publicly delighting when the leader of your people falls on his face are both constitutionally protected actions. However just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean you should. It seems like the internet has blurred a lot of societies lines, and it would be nice if we could go back to the days where it was considered rude to openly act like an assholes.
I agree with the sentiment, but when exactly were those days? I think the internet has lifted the curtain on what was already there.What I'm saying is burning the flag and publicly delighting when the leader of your people falls on his face are both constitutionally protected actions.

Most people still can distinguish between in person and online. For others the lines have blurred and for others still, we don’t need to change “our act”.I agree with the sentiment, but when exactly were those days? I think the internet has lifted the curtain on what was already there.

The "lifting of the curtain" allows people who would lie in person to be a true reflection of themselves online, and it's not that pretty. The reminiscing to better days, is just a rose tinted glasses view in many cases. Its very in line with the "Make America Great Again" line. I've yet to understand when the "again" refers to, or more specifically which particular time period or time someone wants to go back to.Most people still can distinguish between in person and online.

The concept of taking the high road seems to be a lost in today's society.What I'm saying is burning the flag and publicly delighting when the leader of your people falls on his face are both constitutionally protected actions. However just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean you should.

I have asked that question as well and it is an idealized era that never existed.The "lifting of the curtain" allows people who would lie in person to be a true reflection of themselves online, and it's not that pretty.

The irony in your post..The supposed anonymity of on-line postings encourages cowards to act like tough guys.
The premise of "again" is comparing to sometime in the past. We don't have to go back to achieve that, but what time are we looking to compare to. Was there a truly global economy, as there is now? Was China a global economic player, as they are now? Was India a growing global economic power, as they are now?Reminiscing?
What makes you think we have to "go back" anywhere?
Move forward in manufacturing, producing energy, leading the world in space exploration, scientific discovery and leading the free world as we once did...
Besides Marty McFly and Doc who wants to go back in time?
The irony in your post..
Calling people pussies and blowhards, as if you would do that face to face.
I agree with much of what your saying...but...The premise of "again" is comparing to sometime in the past. We don't have to go back to achieve that, but what time are we looking to compare to. Was there a truly global economy, as there is now? Was China a global economic player, as they are now? Was India a growing global economic power, as they are now?
Obviously we should look to grow manufacturing, strive for energy independence and be a leader in sustainable energy production, nobody is developing and funding a 20-30 space exploration plan - but we should, we do scientific discovery - and we also educate the brightest worldwide who go back to their countries to do the same; leading the free world, well we'll use others and they'll use us - people still want to come here for the opportunities - to lead we should elect someone people would follow; all of us would be a good start - so idk, maybe by the 2032 election cycle we could nominate a couple of candidates that run on policy and that everyone (most at least) can get behind once elected .... doubt it though.
