Its just the same attitude as pulling down confederate statutes. Right out of 1984; re-write or delete history.
The big joke during the Cold War was that the Soviets, always broke, never failed to find the money to recall and rewrite their history books every few years because of shifts in the prevailing political winds. I assure you that no one over 50 would even recognize a modern US history school textbook.
America: Our Changing Past.
1984 came late, but it came with a vengenace.
The commies will have a whole bureaucratic apparatus devoted to ferreting out stuff in print and audio/ visual deemed inappropriate by the party big wigs.
Whats wrong with the informal system that they have now? Perhaps its too efficient.
And as for Miss Molly Purebred... she and Hughes schmengled for a decade and it did not end well... I have not a care for Hughes as he was a typical Cankles Chiraqi, but for Americas Sweetheart to keep poking at Hughes corpus of work in the 10 years after his death says more about her than Ted could possibly ever get his tiny mind around...
SJWs and snowflakes can go bugger themselves
But thats what they usually do.
They are just chewing at the edges now. Get a book off a library shelf here, blacklist a movie there. All in the public arena. Where it gets serious is when they start kicking in doors in the middle of the night and check what you are reading, watching and listening to. They will need a huge bureaucracy for that. Loads of paper work to stamp. Reports to write. Party officials to brown nose.
Just watched The Lion In Winter...again.
The Richard/Phillip homo-erotoic scene and the blistering shame that follows.
They just don’t make ‘em like they used to.
More powerful than a speeding bullet.
Oops
Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!
These libby idiots have too much time on their hands.
Those old movies with the husband slapping the wife are disgusting.
Give me a modern TV show where the serial killer rapes and kills 15 women, or a horror flick where the ..... (Sorry - haven’t seen a modern horror flick. I can only imagine from the commercials.)
Same problem of negative “entertainment,” just grown into monster proportions.
> Sorry - havent seen a modern horror flick. I can only imagine from the commercials.
I haven’t seen any either, but from what I can tell from secondhand info they’re all zombie flicks because nobody left in the politically-purged media industry has any courage or imagination.
99.9%
And. Greatly increased life span
I'd thought of that as a way of defining my youth -- those were America's days of alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, things interwoven into the popular culture.
That, and there were common notions of decency, and people knew right from wrong even though they misbehaved sometimes, and people dressed up to go shopping downtown or to go traveling, and ladies wore head coverings and gloves, especially when attending church.

Without question the blackest part of America to this day
Talking about how blacks stayed in the slave states....their descendants are still there
The paternalistic notions of the old south via Christianity towards blacks has NEVER EVER been understood by non southerners or liberals
Not in 1866 nor 1963 nor today
Used to be called White Mans Burden
Whites felt responsible fo them....thats just how it was
Its ironic
The left thinks we still are they just want to demonize us and make us pay for it and strip our political power via non white identity redress
Whites let this happen
I wonder if a generation will wake up
My oldest son wishes it would start already...lol
He thinks Im a soft old man too willing to be pragmatic
Oh to be young no?
Revisionist history:
Nothing is safe, nothing will be spared.
I was trying to be prudent with my 95% estimate.
Apparently, most Americans now believe in Black Panther and the nation of Wakanda.
I have actually seen a podcast by a black studies professor extolling that very thing as though its reality
Its crazy
I guess Im actually a Druid or directly descended from Charlemagne or Alfred the Great
My wife was a Valkyrie or Shieldmaiden you know
It gets ridiculous
