I think this is partially true, but like their American counterparts they would and have cut funding and created understaffing where they could, to promote the idea that the “system is broken” and only their conservative “capitalist innovations” can fix it.

It may be distinction without difference for you; I’ve found most feel this way..

But generally I think the problem is with political conservatism broadly, beyond just the GOP..

Yes, their party is fully captured by conservatives. But conservatism oozes out into other venues, always to ill effect.

I was thinking about the way conservatives posit themselves as “strong leadership” when so many horrors befall the nation when they are in charge, like:

*Covid killing a million Americans
* January 6 attack on the Capitol
*Hurricane Katrina wiping NOLA
*9/11/2001
..
So much failure in conservatism

Even the very conservative Supreme Court has ruled that Texas’s and Abbott’s actions are unconstitutional. Yet these liars and grifters will continue to pretend that they know the document better than anyone; even as they shred it right before our very eyes. Like their Confederate forbearers.

So that’s why I celebrate: to acknowledge the eternal struggle against white supremacy, which remains our greatest enemy and challenge in this nation to this day.
To push back on the myths tied to the Lost Cause and it’s ill effects.
And to work toward our common mandate for justice.

Before the Civil War some parts of the country celebrated thanksgiving days, others did not.

Thanksgiving was however a tradition among deeply religious Abolitionists in the Northeast. As was the regional specialty pumpkin pie.

Among these were persons like Abolitionist and..

I choose to celebrate Thanksgiving with a reminder that the story Pilgrims and Indians we’ve all been fed is a 19th C. historical revision and fiction meant to hide the true history and meaning of this day.
Like all lies, the myth of Pilgrims and Indians always felt flat.
Because it is.

That’s the point though.

Conservatives don’t want to save lives: not of children, not of Americans, not of anyone. We saw during COVID’s rise that they don’t even want to save their own lives.

They want control, and know these kinds of policies will erode public education. That’s what they want.
