      Reality really is stranger than fiction sometimes.

      Society tends to repeat on approximately 80-100 year cycles. Just long enough for the generations affected by bullshit to lose their voices and die.

      Spy magazine ran a great cartoon back in the early '90s which I can’t find anywhere online. It was captioned “Clarence Thomas greets the day” and it showed him bending down on his front porch to pick up the newspaper with a negro stable boy lawn statue next to him.
