1. Anyone know why those lumpkins would call it 'boogaloo' - basically a type of Latin jazz?

2. The Big Luau is their name for the insurrection event starting a 2nd civil war.

Hence the Hawaiian shirts.



Sometimes, it's called the Big Igloo.

3. I see. Thank you, Eugene.

So it makes no real sense - like everything else they say and do.

You're a font of knowledge as always. Enjoy your weekend!

4. It's also a reference to an older movie, "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo."

Bad 1980's movie that had part of it's name stolen, like the far-right stole "Pepe" to be their racist symbol.

5. So it's nonsensical - like everything they do.

Thank you as well, Archae. Have a good weekend.

6. Likewise.

Have a good one.

7. Radical Left: We want healthcare and civil rights!

Radical right: We want guns and we want to kidnap governors we don't agree with and murder protestors we don't agree with!

Tell me again what the difference between the two parties is?

8. They meant business with the Powell Doctrine

Push so many people so far to the right, that even minimal reforms or common-sense legislation becomes impossible.

All so a few billionaires can stash a few more millions in the Caymans.

9. I like what Bill Hicks said:

"I like what the puppet on the left says. No, the puppet on the right is more to my liking! Hey look, there's one guy holding up both puppets! Shut up! Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control! Here, watch American Gladiators and get fat and stupid!".
