The New York Times is the Bible of the American Left. People are being fed a religious worldview (secular humanism), but they think it is objective and neutral. We really are in a battle for the soul of America.

“The goal of The 1619 Project is to reframe American history.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It doesn’t help when Bush League Republicans like Nikki Haley are assisting them.

The left has been “reframing” (i.e. distorting for political effect) American history for decades now. That’s why most young people don’t know even the basics of American history. Leftists love focusing on the worst 10% of it in order to use it as a bludgeon to try to bring down the country and its people.

Is there any Conservative with money to buy out the NYT or WP and fire these anti-American bums?

(yawn)….Howard Zinn already did this back in the 80’s. Were he still alive he’s sue the Times for copyright infringement.

Well they’re right about slavery.

It’s the backbone of this country and once we abolish it I don’t think we will last 5 years...

Wait a minute...

The goal of the left is to destroy this country as we know it. To start, they are trying to destroy our pride in our country. They hate this country, as shown by the kneeling “athletes” and the BLM crowd.

Remember Orwell: He who controls the past, controls the future; and he who controls the present, controls the past.

Looks like the theme of the democrats in 2020 will be “Trump racist” “USA racist.” They must be defeated.

These bastards hate the country this is no longer arguable. We have an FEC and they need to go after the NYT. This is a huge in kind campaign donation to the Rats.

“”The goal of The 1619 Project is to reframe American history.”

Much of the spade work has already been done. It is already an article of faith (for the left) that the election of Obama was the very first time anyone could legitimately be proud of our country.

And it is generally well accepted that monuments to Big Devil Confederates should be destroyed. It will be a tiny step to get Democrats to agree to take down memorials to slave owners Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, and Americus Vespucci.

Columbus is gone. And don't think that known white supremacists like Grant and Lincoln will be safe. They will come for them too. The way it is shaping up, anyone that came before, or after, Obama is fair game.

Coward Brother Bush I hired the entire commission, and all members’ commissions have since expired, half more than 10 years ago, with two vacancies.

The Fraud’s handlers must have been satisfied with the members, too.

Rush is talking about it now -(8/19/19, about 12:30 EST) - note, PDJT should preempt this. Jamestown Landing, 1619, had 20 slaves. William Bradford, Mayflower, 1621, no slaves.

The Times are so woke that they are asleep to the reality that they are stooges of the communists. The communist have taught them well — redefine history, overlook and avoid the obvious, keep the dream of Marxism and socialism alive at any cost and despite all it’s failures. The “woke” title is self congratulatory moniker to their colossal delusion and stupidity. And yet we persist with these termites eating away at the fabric of society.

The Russia hoax having failed as have all other attacks on Trump and America... they scream “racism” LOUDER! #1619 Project #Kamikaze

IMHO I don’t think the insane Leftnoids really think they’re going to win in 2020. I see them as accepting defeat... but with INSANE RAGE! So like Japan in the last year of World War II they’re in Kamikaze mode! Though in the face of defeat inflict as many casualties on the enemy as possible. As do modern suicide bombers. It’s a “strategy” based in the despair of inevitable defeat. The Leftnoids have hijacked the media and plan to fly it and their “racism” invectives into the towers of our Founding!

These arrogant bastards are amoral beyond belief.

In 1619 we were subjects of the British Empire in which slavery was universally practiced. Independence was 182 years in the future.

The New York Times is an enemy of America and the personal enemy of Pres. Trump and each & every one of us who voted for him.
