If I see that face on any bill, I'm drawing a Hitler mustache on it.

I'm going to draw a big X across his face on every bill.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Or an X on each eye.

Draw a big dot on the neck. Bonus points if you add a splash.

Gotta use an awl and really scratch it in.

Ooh great idea. Time to buy some sharpies.

The harder they try to memorialize a forgettable nobody, the more I'm convinced that he deserved it. Remember Cato the Elder's famous quote about statues, and who has them.

"I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue than why I have one"

Why?He never served in office or uniform. He is not significant in any way.

Except they're elevating him as a martyr and memorializing him through a lens of revisionism.

The Jim Crow era is the “great again” part of MAGA.

So what will the exchange rate be? Is it five Rush Limbaugh's to one Kirk, or 25 Rogans to the dollar or what?

Also, make sure Trump knows that if you're dead you can get on money. He should really jump on that action.

20 Stanly Nickels.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a push for that already

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Honestly, what I don't understand is why the orange cunt didn't start planning banknotes with his own ugly face. Would fit him perfectly. They could also bleach and use his used diapers for the currency making process.

There's gonna be a $3 bill?

Kirk is forgettable as a person.
