america's Star spangled Banner like you have not heard before
#3
Jesus Christ!

I never knew that backstory. I was literally today years old before I heard it. I always thought Key was in Fort Henry watching, instead of on a British ship watching.

That really is how the British treated POWs, that I already knew. Some of my ancestors were Hessians captured at Trenton, Hessians freed from their bondage to Hessian princes who hired them out, and who elected to stay here after their terms were up, so I know from research that the Americans treated their POWs differently.

That is the stock we came from, and modern Americans shame them. Modern Americans would first have to ask what the flag's gender was, and/or what personal pronouns it used before they'd go to support it with their own one and only bodies. They'd refuse because the flag represents slavery to them, or because it's Capitalist.

Modern Americans are by and large a shameful race, and bring shame on the men who made the nation to begin with. It may be that our time really is done, and that we need to collapse, because the testicular fortitude is no longer there to support it. There are damned few left that would rather die on their feet than live on their knees.

There are a few, but one has to wonder if there are enough.

I reckon only time will tell, and that  telling time is upon us,

We'll see,

.
Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
