(154,021 posts)Went to Guanajuato with family. My brother is not a RW troll, not even close.
So we did the city tour, if you go there highly advisable...and the guide mentioned the latest controversy. Their lovely RW government wants to remove el pipila from textbooks as myth. Mind you, this miner is central to what the city is.
So over lunch I mentioned that Texas wants to remove Jefferson from textbooks. He said, " I don't know what news you read."
I got the implication... Just the Austin Free Press and calmly explained why that story should have become national.
To quete Rhandhi Rhodes, if not on your tv, it never happened.
That is why you have no outrage.
Most Americans have no idea that this is happening. This is reduced to the ten of us who follow this crap. And that is part of the problem.
Now ask most of your neighbors about March madness, go ahead, that matters...because even POTUS is getting involved!
