The Boston Tea Party was about smugglers whining about lowering the tea duties, making their smuggling rackets a lot less profitable. Kind of silly to keep using it as an example of 'patriotism n stuff'.

Trump just slapped us all with a 10% tariff. That's above and beyond the 6% tax we pay. Does it really matter to you who's ******* you? Does it matter if it's the King of England or President of the USA? Regardless, Trump is ******* you with a 10% tariff.

And then he wants to hide the fall out. The jobs numbers are horrible like we said they would be and he fires the person who released the numbers? Just call it fake news? That's typical of you ******* nazi's. That's your MO. MAGAs MO.

In the future MAGA will be synonomous with NAZI. Lots of similarities between those two cults.
 
1. We know this country was founded on treason and insurrection. What's your point?
2. Those weren't tariffs on the tea, as they were not applied to foreign tea in order to make domestic tea price competitive. What ARE they teaching kids in school today?
3. That was a tax revolt, something for the tax goblins to remember when they get all excited talking about confiscating more of taxpayers earned income.
 
A horde of White men disguised themselves as Native Americans — coppering their faces and donning headdresses in the same tradition that would lead to blackfaced minstrel shows decades later — to commit seditious conspiracy and destroy private property. The riotous mob trespassed on three ships and destroyed goods worth nearly $2 million in today’s money — all because they didn’t want to obey a duly passed law.
I love this article, if for nothing else that it speaks truths, while asking serious questions
.


Kings dont pass "duly passed laws" they impose tyranny by edict a concept rejected by American morals and law. The article is easily destroyed with a little common sense.
It has no truth and supports the American constitution that states "When a government becomes destructive of these ends it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it." Life Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

If you love their article you had poor education

Opposition to a royal tyrant isnt insurrection its revolution
It was the Declaration that established the myth that George III was a tyrant. Yet George was the epitome of a constitutional monarch, deeply conscientious about the limits of his power. He never vetoed a single Act of Parliament, nor did he have any hopes or plans to establish anything approaching tyranny over his American colonies, which were among the freest societies in the world at the time of the Revolution: Newspapers were uncensored, there were rarely troops in the streets and the subjects of the 13 colonies enjoyed greater rights and liberties under the law than any comparable European country of the day.

Insurrection:

A violent uprising against an authority or government.

The bottom line remains, this country was founded on treason and insurrection, as ugly as those terms sound. and we can see those in our society today who would have gleefully hunted down the FF's and turned them over to the British for execution.

A king is objectively a tyrant

Trump is using EOs as "tyranny by edict."
