Gary Allen Montelongo used coding and engineering to test how suspension systems can cause train derailments. His eighth-grade project won big.

        Need to remember the bastards to remember to piss on their graves.

        Much as I understand your sentiment, I think it’s important to remember the people who did horrible things like McCarthy, and use him as a warning to our younger generations who didn’t see the problems they created.

        You know, and the grave pissing.

          Thanks to how history is being recorded, there’s no chance that he will be forgotten until civilization collapses.

          I wouldn’t want history to actually forget any shitty person (or good person) because that makes it way easier for someone with similar ideals to take power again.

          It’s more the sentiment.

          I have a metaphorical bucket of piss just for Margaret Thatcher. 26+6=1

        Given that you yourself are remembering him, you can’t wait until you die / have dementia?

      The alternative to communism is drift towards monarchy.
