What atrocities should we remember and how often and with what intensity should we remember them?

    Also, the Flintstones didn't really live in caves, they lived in houses made out of solid rock - it's like they found a big ass mountain and chiseled away 99.9% of it and wound up with a bunch of rock homes.

    Also, they used animals as appliances.
    It's kind of weird that they speak English instead of saying "ugg ugg thog ugg" and having subtitles that explain what they're saying in English.

      Considering it was a cartoon for kids that many didn't know how to read yet..............I guess it made sense.
      It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

          Was not. It was a cartoon for adults and emulated The Honeymooners.

            Any tragedy that affects America should be remembered by bombing a nation with dark skinned citizens. If it is considered especially grievous BY AMERICANS, then we should sacrifice a couple of thousand soldiers and completely destroy that region of the world.

            If it happens in another part of the world then at least 1,000,000 people must have died...in which case there will be a small ceremony once per year that will be poorly attended with little news coverage.

            I thought this formula was well known.

              The Tienanmen Square massacre was well remembered here while Urban Ranger was still posting, but interest has dropped off since then

                And it's well known that animation techniques at the time of the Flintstones only allowed for white characters and stone houses.
