-Note the odd highlighting of the "HH" there.
This was brought to my attention by my friend
friedmouse here last night, but since neither of us use Xitter, I wasn't able to confirm that it was real. At least in my case I've never used Xitter because I've always tried to avoid feeding surveillance capitalism social media sites. -It would be pretty easy to fake that, after all.
With the help of another friend here,
DoomsdayRabbit I was able to confirm this morning that this is absolutely real. Great work, friends!
The painting depicted there, John Gast's American Progress depicts "Manifest Destiny" in the person of Columbia, who symbolizes the US, bringing the light of "Civilization" from the East to the to the land of darkness of the West, as shown by the indigenous people. Color prints of this painting were widely distributed here in the early 1870s
Anybody still trying to deny the rise of US fascism and the ongoing plan to establish it here is just burying their head in the sand.
*Update:
This is the actual link:

So, While still pretty appalling, the first one WAS shooped, as I originally suspected. Rather clever, though.

But never forget: The people have the power, if we take it.
There are more of us than there are of them.
Jesus fucking christ.
I checked out the mention of it on the Hellsite, and found the original post
by the account DHSgov (Homeland Security). Besides that, their entire posting history
is cheering on ICE arrests, reposting "anti-woke" users, and groveling before Trump.
Rotten, through and through. The whole Manifest Destiny thing
is a bunch of bitter wifebeaters patting themselves on the backs at the pub
for being exemplary family men; they commit a crime, and demand to be praised for it.
And bingo.
Thanks!
That only makes it SLIGHTLY less appalling.
Trust me... the midterms are going to be a BLOODBATH.
I do believe that you're right about the bloodbath, though.
McDonald's? You're welcome. Stitch? You're welcome. Everything that inspired "My Hero Academia?" You're welcome. Superman? You're welcome.
The world loves America. It just doesn't love Republicans. NOBODY likes these assholes.
You know why! When you cancelled Kimmel, it was to protect your corporate profits from Trump's political vengeance. I refuse to spend a NICKEL on Disney or watch ABC as long as you continue kissing his (many people are saying) odiferous butt. If your Marvel heroes were actual humans, NONE of them would stand for what you're doing. LONG LIVE THE FIRST AMENDMENT! LONG LIVE JIMMY KIMMEL!!! Disney Inc., DROP DEAD!
PS: for all the Repugnitives whining about being called "Nazis" & "fascists," STOP ACTING LIKE NAZIS & FASCISTS & WE'LL STOP CALLING YOU NAZIS & FASCISTS.
And good for you. A LOT more people need to do that.
