Progressives are progressives are progressives. Your fixation with Rhode Island is irrational when the news is replete with examples of far crazier progressives in many other parts of the country. For example, have we defunded our Police? No.
But you're correct that progressives do parrot what they're "supposed to say".
Fortunately, that's all the ones around here ever do.
It's not an irrational fixation on RI to discuss RI on the RI board. This isn't a board to discuss what's happening with "far crazier progressives in many other parts of the country"
As America celebrates the 245th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence this July 4, the legacy of the Declaration is under attack like perhaps never before. Much of the American left has adopted the view—one even espoused by Joe Biden’s Ambassador to the United Nations—that the Declaration is a “white supremacist” document. This is among the central notions of what has become known as Critical Race Theory. Yet this idea, so crucial to the thinking of the modern left, is not only not true, but the clear historical record shows that the exact opposite is true. The Declaration of Independence did not forever enshrine slavery and racism into the soul of America—it set slavery on the path to inevitable global extinction.

"He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions."
Grievance 27 of the Declaration of Independence
Nothing racist there...
I'm sure someone will claim "savages" and "merciless" had "different" meanings back then...
And let's not forget the fact that "all men" created equal only meant white men. Nothing racist about that!
No dude. What you said was extremely disrespectful, uncalled for, and I don't find any humor in it whatsoever. You owe an entire profession an apology.
