Republican congressman Eli Crane just referred to Black service members **colored people**

In 2023.

In america.

“The military was never intended to be, you know, inclusive. Its strength is not its diversity.”

Something like this used to be career ending. For republicans—it’s a prerequisite

JFC! WTAF!
@PollyWaugh right response
@flexghost
This shit makes me question my own sanity. I keep wondering if I’ve gotten senile & am in my head, living in a past I thought we’d at least started to evolve from…
I haven’t heard people talk this way, openly, since back in the 60’s/70’s.
It’s fucking appalling.

@PollyWaugh right?? Regressives.

Just know that republicans on average are not calculated. These are not smart people. They are just doing the worst possible thing they can: being themselves.

The effect mimics the firehose of nonsense that the Nazis used but these are deeply stupid people.

@flexghost
It’s the response or lack of same that’s appalling. These people are definitely what my mom used to call ‘ignurnt’
How did these idiots get elected? I don’t believe it’s all about ‘the voters made their choice’ in these districts. I think it’s voter suppression that’s been going on for years, I think it’s election rigging by REPUBLICANS.
I’ve seen them try to do it here, (California) in the last presidential election.
It pisses me off to no end & I’m supposed to be taking my BP right now & putting it in my log book for the doctor…
I’m so screwed!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
