This week I was posting something about post World War 2 and how multiple imperialist powers gave up their overseas holdings, and I very nearly typed about how all of these countries just voluntarily did it. But I was posting about France and Algeria, so I knew that couldn't be true, so I looked up the process of decolonization and of course I had basically just about regurgitated some weak ass History Channel noble white folk nonsense about how the magnanimous West just let Asia and Africa roam free after WW2.

What stupid shit have you caught yourself doing or saying recently?

    Made a dumb comment about aesthetics are important to liberals, therefore we could benefit from using political dynasties. Then realized i was the liberal i was talking about because deep down i wanted to keep the obamas, and their hokey saccharine shit. ive been listening to more theory to cure me of this brain poisoning

      Oh shit that was your comment! I thought it was more of a benign thing, I didn't realize it was serious. Funny thing is, I can see where you're coming from.
