      There are still good people in Arkansas. Just like anywhere else in the world where bad things happen. Those kids in Arkansas not only need proper education, but also deserve it. We all do. They are being punished, and it’s being labeled as a form of saving them. It’s not their fault that their leaders are misguided. The people of Arkansas have been used and abused by far-right politicians for years and manipulated to look elsewhere for their problems. All while gutting education to ensure no one has the cerebral faculties to ask the right questions. Have some sympathy for them. You’re angry, and you are right to be. Don’t let that anger get out of control, where it can’t be used for something more useful and constructive.

        Sorry comrade. That scratched lib seems to think they’re not part of the problem and that turning against members of our own class is going to soothe anything more than their own bruised ego. I’m sure you know this, but they are wrong. A force that is powerful enough to take PBS off the air is surely one that’s been powerful enough to make it seem that their people are not fighting back. Nevermind. Keep fighting ✊🏽

        No one cares about shithole people in no go zones. Enjoy the fruits of your labour. Hope your kids don’t die in another school shooting or you go bankrupt due to illness.

        Now shush while civilized people talk.

        Edit: To any downvoters with dubious claims to civilization, feel free to fucking step up any time now.
