As thousands swarmed Kabul's airport in a bid to escape the Taliban's takeover in Afghanistan, videos circulating on social media appear to show armed Taliban soldiers enjoying amusement park rides after their victory last weekend.

One video posted by Reuters senior reporter Hamid Shalizi depicts soldiers driving bumper cars while touting their guns.

Maybe the Taliban will sell it to the AntiAmerican company Disney!! 🤓

On second thought, Disney might not be able to have a GAY DAY there ... 🤓

The old farts haven’t gotten there yet to shame them and make them destroy anything remotely fun or redeeming.

As many of the comments said - how did this group of nit-wits win?

Because they rejected the feminism and faggotry our nitwits presented to them at the point of a gun.

Tucker Carlson had an excellent piece last night on this very subject. Well worth the 12 minutes.

Originally I thought your name was Tired of Texas and was going to nominate you for Zottinghood.

😄 You're not the only one. For many years, many, many times, here's the question I got: "Why are you tired of Texas?"

So, for a long time, my profile page at the top clarified: "That's taxes, not Texas. I've never been to TX. I heard it's a great place to live. I live in an overtaxed blue state."

Wish I could change the screenname, but I'm stuck with it.

There is color video on You Tube of Nazi Brownshirts doing the same thing. Drinking beer, riding on merry -go rounds and having little kids play along.

A kind of “Nazi Party Play Day’’ mit der kinder!

The Taliban do seem to have much in common with the Nazis of WWII.
