“Without the pen of the author of Common Sense, the sword of Washington would have been raised in vain.”
-John Adams

You guys do realize that Q is talking about us, right? The pen Adams was referring to is our keyboards.

We are the pamphleteers of our time.

The modern day Thomas Paine.

That's us. All of us.

Good catch.

Ben Franklin today would be running a website: "Poor Richard's Tattler."

Yes, we are spreading “common sense” and a certain % of the population must be woke for the sword to be effective.

But I think the picture indicates that 45 is the pre-requisite, “the pen of the author.”

Either way, it’s a great quote for post 1776.
