TLHLIM

it seems to me that some analogous prose could be spilt on the agendas and good will (or lack thereof) of people who share this on twitter and post about it on the TLHIM thread...i will leave it at that

although a few questions do spring to mind:

1) is your objection (note that i talk of you not some vague group like pointy headed professors or Breitbart who after all are not here to explain themselves) the words of the song

2) or the name of the song (which happens to be Lift Every Voice and Sing)

3) or the song being referred to as the Black National Anthem

4) or its being sung at that particular occasion

5) or people being requested to remain standing while it is sung

6) or some combination of the above

It's a fine song.
My objections are #3 and #4. It isn't the Black National Anthem. Anyone who says it is, is a liar. Period, that isn't up for discussion. We have the national anthem. "The." It's like the Highlander, there can be only one.

well i don't know who ordered it sung on that occasion (someone in Michigan state government I suppose)...i agree it would be better to just refer to it by its name...it has a fine inspirational message that i support

i will note that the national anthem gets supplanted by other patriotic songs on certain occasions...sometimes it is replaced or accompanied by another song...and people often stand for that other song or songs

Lol I'm really glad we finally have a competing thread.

I guess nobody is bothered by Lincoln being tossed in the garbage. I'm not shocked. Keep obliging from the betas.

Meanwhile, now everyone is a doctor in the age of a pandemic

It's been interesting to see how many knives have come out for Feinstein since she hugged Graham. Especially after Biden's theme of "unity."

Diane's main problem is that although for the most part very liberal she is also an independent thinker and will sometimes depart from the orthodoxy in fairly blunt fashion. We need more people like her, even with the slight cognitive impairment that comes with being in her late 80s. She also praised Susan Collins during her re-election campaign and I'm sure Schumer didn't like that.

I'm not sure which is the best way to define Wokeness at this point, a mental illness or an evil religion. These people are sick.

I just don't understand what the benefit of **** like this is.

Julio and I got into it a while back about how gender and sex are different.

Apparently not for long
