    Make the economy like the 1950s as well where a janitor could support a wife and 2 kids, own a home, and take several holidays a year on his salary alone

      That is one of their stated goals, but they have absolutely zero plan to achieve it. Idiots still believe the lies for some reason though.

        No one tell them about livable minimum wages, strong unions, and ‘socialist’ policies. They would rather change their goals than to implement anything that might actually work.

    There, stuck in the moment with horseradish shrimp pate, my faith was shaken to its core. “Surely no God would allow this” and that’s when I came to two Earth shattering conclusions: there is no God and I like being called Shirley.

    People won’t stand up against fascism, authoritarianism, nazis or outright criminals in government

    But you if threaten to feed them food with horseradish, shrimp in jello and everyone will want to start a revolution.

      Fuck peas but speaking as a mayo American, mayo kinda slaps. Egg, potato, and pasta salad are pretty excellent side dishes. I buy hard boiled eggs and Costco sized mayo so I can have egg salad on sourdough toast whenever I want.

      Green muscle disease according to the USDA, check it before chump and clowns remove the info.

      Looks like deep breast necrosis due to forced growth and all the crazy breeding.

      Did you know that modern factory farmed chickens are so inbred that they are basically clones, the only real genetic differentiation are the sex chromosomes. Transplant of organs without rejection drugs is possible in these chickens.

    This sounds like the unholy amalgam of a British and Mainer cuisine.

      British foods I think gets unfairly criticized.

      I come from a south Asian culture that loves to cover rices with all sorts of curries and spices.

      But I can appreciate a good fish and chips, Yorkshire pudding, shepherds pie etc.

      Not the strange savoury aspics with Mayo and fish of 1950s America.

        It gets ragged on because the British have a decent bit of variety in their culinary history which while standard in the anglosphere is still decent, and then they make beans and toast for two of their three meals. Some regions in the US have the same problem with chili to a lesser extent but at least they try to add some variety by putting it on different things.

            The problem is that it’s a food clearly created during the Blitz that just stayed around. It’d be like if jellied eels was a was the national food of fucking Australia.

        In fairness though the Americans have managed to muck up sandwiches by putting sugar in both the bread and the peanut butter.

    The only reason I’d argue with that is that the horseradish would literally kill my better half. You want that back? I’ll take it. I’ll eat it and be happy.
