Those of you who remember my good friend daveman from CU will likely remember his entirely accurate catchphrase:
"Those who don't remember history are doomed to vote Democrat."
I've been noticing a trend more and more since the election. To wit:

3. I grew up in Pittsburgh and left in 1971.
When did all this redneck stuff happen? I was young so maybe I don't remember but the inner city was filled with very liberal college people and union workers.
DUmmies, and the Left in general, seem to have fond memories of an America that didn't actually exist just a few years ago. This particular DUmmie seems to think that Pittsburgh union steel workers of yore would, in their off time, not go out into the woods to hunt and fish, but instead would drive their Priuses down to the local fair-trade cafe to enjoy some cruelty-free coffee and maybe a poetry slam. Because that's what toughened steel workers did in 1971: wore man-buns and read beat poetry. They didn't do such "redneck" things as hunt or fish. Never.
This example is part of a larger trend, though. In all of the screeching and caterwauling about Trump, the phrase "the America I remember is going away" (or some similar variant) is repeated over and over. But this is said in context of somehow losing gay marriage or Obamafail or, as I saw one of them claim, trans-testicles in girls' locker rooms. These dolts
actually believe that stuff that didn't exist five years ago is somehow woven into the fabric of some long-ago America that they have deluded themselves into believing existed when they were young.
No wonder they're so f#c&ed in the head.
