Truth is I gave up trying to talk politics and decided my energy would be better used trying to get people to think about the why and how![]()
i need that shirt![]()
Well, passing the salt is the hot topic.i think it's a little more funny to me because it's practically illegal to talk about religion or politics at an Italian dinner table
Im half Italian, and there are some HEATED political debates at the table, but everyone can say their piece and move on for the most part…except my little brother, who I was extremely close to until he went to college, don’t get me started there ha… but he is your text book woke left wing extremist, he practically disowned my family for being conservative, it was at that moment I realized just how much of a cult this isi think it's a little more funny to me because it's practically illegal to talk about religion or politics at an Italian dinner table
Here’s the thing, we’re all just people walking the earth, shouldn’t we have the freedom to do what we want granted it doesn't hurt anyone els ? We’re autonomous creatures and I think we should preserve that the best we can to not end up in a brave new world..obviously you then get into the whole “words are violence” and vaccine for the greater good type stuff, but fuck we’re heading in a very clear directionPolitics divides very well. Growing up, the concept of Politics had no meaning to me so I stayed right out of it.
It made no sense. Just a common room of chaos, fued, disagreement, power struggle, and treachery.
I'm sure all came about naturally, inevitably as part of culture, and mankind's gross but generally innocent haphazardness.
It doesn't appear to match the forecast does it? We keep hearing how "it's" working.Here’s the thing, we’re all just people walking the earth, shouldn’t we have the freedom to do what we want granted it doesn't hurt anyone els ?

As soon as you said Luigi I was thinking to ask you if you had another uncle called Mario lol you answered that for me.so my Great-grandfather, his name was Luigi....they had 11 kids (imagine being at that dinner table) 9 boys 2 girls....so i have an Uncle Mario and an Uncle Luigi but they called Uncle Luigi "Jidgy"
i had an Uncle Chick - his real name was Americo since he was the first born in the U.S.
my grandfather was nicknamed "Lindy" because he looked like the Lindbergh baby and he was born a few years before when that all went down
my grandmother was Violet and that wasn't her real name either
good ol times
they all smoked cigs so it took a lot of them out early but the couple that didn't smoke, all came close to 100 yrs old
and guess what.....none of them were vaccinated beyond the smallpox vaccine
Those Italian genetics are something else eh? My dad is a specimen I tell ya, my dad is 86 and still gets up everyday at 7 to run his business till 6 and works around the house when not working, guy can’t stand still god bless him, he too was never vaccinated and beat covid in a couple days, I’m pretty sure he got less sick then meso my Great-grandfather, his name was Luigi....they had 11 kids (imagine being at that dinner table) 9 boys 2 girls....so i have an Uncle Mario and an Uncle Luigi but they called Uncle Luigi "Jidgy"

It's not genetics it's mindset and focus.Those Italian genetics are something else eh?

I do. I used to enjoy the evening news ( Back in 70's thru 90's. ). That's how I kept up with current events and it was just the story with no spin. Just the facts. I grew up in a household that it was on in the background during dinner. After 2000, I started to see the shift. And by 2010 it was all biased.remember when the news used to not be like that? it used to just be news

All you need to tell me now is that you grew up going go-karting with your two uncles.![]()
That frog suit was the shit…but remember Mario on super nes, for me it’s a toss up between 3 and super Mario world, those games still hold up today against XboxS games
