Not "Has"the left" ever been wrong", but have social conservatives, ever, once, been right, in any country, about any issue, ever?

      It's so fucking interesting to me how motherfucking cyclical everything is. tHiS tYpE oF wRiTiNg wE uSe tO mOcK wRoNg pEoPlE sAyInG tHeiR wRonG iDeAs actually already came and went on the internet. This goes way back, from the local dial up bulletin board 90s to the height of forums in the early 2000s. It was so ubiquitous, in fact, so mainstream, that it actually became lamestream, and only boomers did that shit (we didn't say boomers back then, but whatever the equivalent was), and the hep cat kids would never type it. To see it come back so full throatedly is honestly amusing.

      Another one: Borat saying "Niiiiice" in the original Borat. Only the most insufferable Ren Faire dudes and business majors would say it, and no one cool would EVER type "nice" because everyone heard it in Borat's voice and then someone else would yell some shit about a wizard's sleeve.

      Flash forward to today, and "nice" always gets floated out their about 69s and shit, and I can't not hear it in Borat voice, and NEVER type that shit.

      I know I'm at a Wendy's right now, but you loved reading that anyway.
