Martin Luther King Day- Are you working today?

[MarAzul]

Exactly, you only called Trump a real american. Which proved that you're the one who knows nothing about MLK and his legacy.

I didn't call MLK anything, I was commenting on the artist's very Un-American portrayal of him.

I was commenting on the painting that portrayed MLK committing a very Un-American act which he would never have done.

I take it you don't know many artists? They like to pretend they are deep thinkers, and use symbolism in everything.

The painting's symbolism is this:

MLK as an evil Censor (so NOT a Real American) silencing The American President, who of course symbolizes Real Americans everywhere.

The artist is denying MLK was a Real American, claiming he fought against Freedom of Speech, which of course is ridiculous and clueless as I posted.

Got it?

If you had actually meant that you would have said, "A Real American doesn't censor or infringe on the rights of an other Real American."

Instead you said, "MLK infringing on a Real American's Freedom of Speech"

ATLANTA (CBS46) -
During his visit to Atlanta to watch the National Championship game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, President Donald Trump also signed legislation proclaiming the first national park to honor an African-American.

With Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s niece, Alveda King, next to him, Trump signed the historic legislation into law. The Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site is now a National Historic Park. It expands the boundaries of the former King Center to include the Prince Hall Masonic Temple. Dr. King used it as a headquarters for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.

It's the first of its kind in Georgia.
Dr. Bernice King issued this statement on the signing of the Martin Luther King Jr. Historic Act:

"This moment is significant because the Martin Luther King, Jr. national park will be the first national park that honors an African-American. It also fulfills my mother's dream of the King Historic District becoming a full-fledged park."

After further review, I made the wrong comparison. I thought the little dude was stirring up a pile of dog shit.

I thought it was someone poking at a pile of Trump.

"MLK infringing on a Real American's Freedom of Speech"

Well yeah! That is the image you posted!

 

[MARIS61]

Again you deliberately distort and reverse the clear meaning of my post, leaving off my incredulous question mark mocking the artist for impuning MLK's Americanism.

MLK infringing on a Real American's Freedom of Speech?

The "artist" is clueless about more than just her/his subjects.

Saying it your way would not have made the point I was making.

Give it up, maybe you somehow misunderstood my post but your persistence seems like it's just a personal attack ala Joy Behar attacking Melania Trump for coloring pictures with disadvantaged kids.

Ohhhhhhhhh! So the question mark means you're questioning that Trump is a Real American. Now that I can agree with. You are right to question that.

But that should mean that you like the picture since it's a Real American silencing a Real Russian.

Ha!
That post deserves to sit there and steam for a while. Classic child like innuendo.

No.

The artist was the one who only called President Trump a Real American, and portrayed MLK as an anti-American.

I pointed out the error.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I love both of you guys, This has been fun.

Stop.

You're just embarrassing yourself now.

Sounds like you know a lot of Russian novelists from the Stalin era...not artists...artists exist in all earthly subcultures with diverse views of expression...my wife is a published accredited artist...won 3 nat'l art awards in her homeland...your generalization insults her and many people who express through the arts...if anyone is pretending...it's your view that you know this about artists...

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Stop.

You've embarrassed me enough.

FTFY

So you're saying your wife uses no symbolism in her art? Not sure what "generalization" you're referring to, so I'll await further clarification. My sole intent was to criticize this one particularly ignorant artist who IMO insulted one of my countrymen who I have a great deal of respect for.

As for Russian authors, they can be a bit tedious to follow so I prefer audiobooks.

Here's one of my favorites:

Man, I gotta stop reading just the last page of threads. I am one confused mofo.

I got the game on live and I clicked on your video. I'm hearing Calabro yelling while some guy with a British accent talks while someone plays the violin.

Now someone's yelling while that gal Brook Olazanpine yaps her gossip. Now your video ended and Hurd is talking.

 

[riverman]

Not sure what "generalization" you're referring to,

I quoted your post...all artists pretend to be deep thinkers..blah blah blah....y'know the one..and use symbolism in "everything"...that's the one.

Ha!
Life is simple here on the boat. I can hardly get enough input to keep awake, no chance for confusion. I don't think!
