Here's a fun little fact for our free speech community . . .
The more that we have cracked down on spammers and send trolls on their way, the better the conversation on this blog has become . . . AND STILL WE REMAIN THE LAST FREE SPEECH ZONE IN KANSAS CITY!!!
And the BEST place to come for discussion that won't get you fired with help from all of your frenemies on Fakebook.
As of late, SUPER DAVE has been KILLING IT with his comments on the anthem and mass shootings. RETRO ROCKER is a new force to be reckoned with . . . And we've seen some great stuff from Miss Allen, Phil, Greedo, Chuck, Streetcar Critics, Progressive Pioneers and the perennial hilarity of TOP PHOTO GUY.
However, this comment really stood out for me and was highlighted by some of the best denizens of our blog community as a perspective worthy of consideration and something that speaks to the ethos of our blog community.
On the subject of upcoming celebrity events . . .
"Make no mistake, the upper echelon of the 1% doesn't define themselves with mantels of Conservative, Republican, Liberal, Democrat except when speaking to us peons. They serve their own self interests: Period. Right now, they're Republican because it most benefits them, if there was some massive paradigm shift in the next election where being liberal would best line their pockets; then that's exactly what they would be. Same throughout the course of history and the 1%s of either party. They could pay me to meet them and be nice, I'd probably do it for $200 for an hour or so. But other than that, there is nothing they have to say which would entertain or enlighten me."
This kind of insightful commentary from everyday residents of Kansas City is why we write this blog. It's worth wading through garbage in order to highlight and represents INDEPENDENT, CRITICAL THINKING BEYOND PARTISAN SLAPFIGHTING OR CULTURE WAR CHEST THUMPING that's getting harder to find anywhere on the Internets . . . But regularly appears right here on TKC.
You decide . . .
A little pessimistic but I see your point.
ReplyDeleteCareful Tony, don't flirt too closely with being a libertarian or they'll take away your bump stock!
DeleteReally liked Dave's take on the shootings. If The Star had any guts they would print what he wrote instead of their gun grabber garbage.
DeleteHorse shit

ReplyDelete"Tony's Kansas City", covers it all. People go to jail, fortunes are lost, business deals are delayed, projects are in doubt and the power of the pen prevails. Tony shines a light on the machinations of those folks, high and low, with plans that can and do affect the citizens in Kansas City and those citizens love, TKC.. Honesty and integrity are at least partially back in favor, due to the efforts of a small time blogger, whose insistence on “Free Speech” in his comment section, provides insider information, along with sexual innuendos, racist commentary, sacrilegious profanity and depravity of all kinds. This free for all comment section, is, ironically, to those who work at more well known publications, the imprimatur, the existential knowledge, that as you surf through the insanity, the truth is here, uncensored, unedited, right there for you to see and you know it is true, because it stood shoulder to shoulder with the insanity, the depravity, the hate. It is just like life, unencumbered with the need to please anyone, it just exists, it just is what it is.
ReplyDeleteThanks again Chuck!!
ReplyDeleteNobody does it better.
Good Points Chuck
ReplyDeleteOh yes, lets crack down on anyone that doesn't feedback exactly what we want to hear. Otherwise we might fuck up and have free speech!!!
ReplyDeleteAt least Tony never silences or edits anyone, even if they don't agree with hi...
ReplyDeleteLol^^^
ReplyDeleteChuck is insane. He routinely calls for genocide. What's great about that? Tony likes the comments he agrees with, BFD.
ReplyDeleteTony is a social conservative & like most of them, he's Pro-Birth, Pro-Gun, & Pro-meaningless social rituals, a Chicano mindlessly waving the flag without irony.
Like the man said, this is an echo chamber where cowardly gun owning, racist assholes can tell each other how wonderful they all are.
Bah Humbug.
Long distance psychoanalysis from a literally and metaphorically blind welfare recipient, who lives off of the largess of those he hates.
DeleteFor a guy who would need am exothermic torch to get to the bottom of his "daddy" issues, this is rich.
^^^ Then don't read it dummy. Solved one of your many problems.
ReplyDeletecml wins this tread.
ReplyDeleteHerp der...duh...doy...gurgle...I is stupid Dave...duh...I a dumb dumb...herp derp...doy...
DeleteSounds like Tony took a good shit and is convinced he cleared his head.
ReplyDeleteYeah the racism here is really KICKASS and worthy of bragging.
ReplyDelete^^^^Ha! It's funny case it's true!
