Janel Comeauif we’ve brought back global pandemics, titanic disasters, railroad strikes, a King of England and Russian coups, we should also get to bring back the parts of the 20th century where they had cocaine in the soda and a minimum wage earner could buy a family home
pedestrian cyclist@VeryBadLlama I want the part where presidents had to resign after a scandal and where dictators where hung on gas stations...
PirateRo@VeryBadLlama it’s a boring rerun and the writing for these retreads is dull, at best.
Ricardo Harvin@VeryBadLlama I concur!
Officially Tara 🕷️ 
🌹@VeryBadLlama i mean the strikes are working towards that
@VeryBadLlama the livable wages, that is, not coke in coke 😅
Kevin Karhan 
@VeryBadLlama net thing you gonna demand your votes to actually count and corporate donors to be shunned upon...
#sarcasm aside, all #VictimlessCrimes including #DrugProhibitions must not only be canceled but all past convictions be annuled and people rehabilitated and paid reparations for the opression if not incarceration suffered...
@VeryBadLlama Or at the very least ban #CashBail, #JailForUnpaidFines and #ForcedLabour as well as #ConvictLeasing as #Slavery per #Circular3591?

MayhamMonday@VeryBadLlama Last century we had the roaring '20s this century we're getting the disastrous '20s... Nothing in this decade is going to surprise me!
Kevin RussellNot a fan of the colas, but a real minimum wage is a top notch idea.
Matt Palmer@kevinrns @VeryBadLlama but consider, if we put cocaine back in soda, how much more energy everyone would have to produce value for our corporate overlords!
gavinisdie 
@VeryBadLlama maybe not the cocainw but the wage yes

Andy P@VeryBadLlama Looking forward to this century’s version of radioactive health drinks that make your jaw fall off
JL Roberson@VeryBadLlama strikes! strikes for everyone
Made in DNA
paprikapink@VeryBadLlama you could get elected to office running on this platform
aethervision@VeryBadLlama And radium. I want my radium toothpaste.
Steffen Christensen@VeryBadLlama Hahahahahahaha! Hilarious! 👑
Katzedecimal@VeryBadLlama to be fair, we've got legal weed in Canada 😅
it's winter@VeryBadLlama let's bring back the part where rail transportation was really good in the US!
@VeryBadLlama like how there actually were trains
And streetcars
Instead of just HIGHWAYS and AUTOMOBILES

Liminal witch 🧙♀️ Sarah@VeryBadLlama I would settle for dresses with pockets and minimum wage being livable wage for a family
post-punked@VeryBadLlama You could beat someone who wants to care over the head every day with the truth, but the reality of American home ownership is #Economics everyone supports or ignores, beginning with the intense resistance to building.

I genuinely wish that he were only the king of England. But I also felt like that about his mother being queen as well.

Alerta! Alerta!@VeryBadLlama I expect next up on the agenda of History Repeating to be "Black Thursday"(which, due to timezone shift, is named "Black Friday" in Europe - Not to be confused with the Amazon thingy - one of those things where translation failed...)
@VeryBadLlama @12 You’re forgetting the literal heroin cough syrup. It was once thought to be a less addictive alternative to codeine, incredibly, although I’ll bet the company selling it probably knew that was BS.
ComradeVlast@VeryBadLlama There was a super important series of events between these two periods when labor unions had enough of the BS and started really fucking shit up.
What I'm saying is Solidarity fucking Forever
Phil Scoie@VeryBadLlama Good call

LAF and LOVE@benjaminallocco @VeryBadLlama My grandmother was born in 1894 and took in infants that were called “welfare babies”. She told me that she used to rub Laudanum on their gums when they were teething. They were all very happy babies.
Dan Bocain@VeryBadLlama Gotta wait another 30 to 60 years for some of those requests...
#WikiParty@VeryBadLlama Don't forget the part where entheogens were legal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entheogen
Ryan2one3@VeryBadLlama you had me at coke in Coke
Mother of Mercy@VeryBadLlama Well, it looks like child labor might be making a comeback. *Brüno laugh* Ach-ya or Nish Nish?
Dixzy@VeryBadLlama at minimum!!
Bishop Whitewind@VeryBadLlama need that 1920s income so I can train my own killer whale to ride around and sink yachts thanks.
Robots can be gay deal with it@VeryBadLlama Well, I know a lot of people are starting to take pre-workout before work to increase endurance. I'd imagine someone in the future thinking that's as bad or worse than cocaine.
BRANDON HILTON 
Aviva Gary@VeryBadLlama Look... you get the part of the redux you were delt... no cherry picking the New Deal or Overthrowing Dictators for you... just take what you get... 😉 🙃
DJ🌞
@VeryBadLlama Oh no no, you don't get to get that. Just like the "coup" -- all we get the second time is a regurgitated, watered-down imitation of what was before. 
bblfish@VeryBadLlama Now that makes me wonder if the 1950s boom was just a cocaine induced fantasy...
Red Faster@VeryBadLlama yes I remember those days like it was #yesterday or maybe just a dream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsp63GYPcT4
My Heart Will Go On (Kazoo Cover)
Iron Curtain (Chiptunes)@VeryBadLlama @indigenous_commentator no to the cocaine in the soda, yes to the minimum wage earner having a home
Britt 🕉️☮️✌️🏳️🌈🇺🇦
🌪 MikeMathia 📡Hell. Yes.
Joanne Jacobs
Ursidinoj/The Bjornsdottirs@VeryBadLlama Also, less red tape around opium and amphetamines. And massive state investment in railroads. And using a bunch less power overall.
