This might deserve its own thread because it’s been an ongoing saga all summer- the Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools is in a massive budget shortfall due to nearly a decade of overspending and negligence across multiple superintendents, financial officers and board members. There have been cuts already and last night the board decided to lay off nearly 300 more employees including assistant principals and dozens of exceptional children staff.

Really, really disappointing situation that has morale among teachers and staff at all time lows and will absolutely have repercussions for the kids:

This is also happening in other states.

Old white boomers had to go from eating their canned corn in a tacky faux barn to eating their canned corn in a faux sterile farmhouse!
 
I'll stop posting Cracker Barrel shit but this is literally the greatest day ever in the Great Everlasting MAGA Culture Wars. Just absolute perfection.
 
New look is much improved. Old look is a cluttered mess. Looks like they’re simply updating the country store look.

Can’t see this making Libs of TicTok.
 
Consider that he may know better, but it's framing that way to poke fun at them.
I had that same exact thought myself but then scrolled his twitetr profile for a little while and figured out that he absolutely does think that. And now I've seen several other MAGA bot accounts say similar (stupid me feeding the algorithm!) so I assume (probably safely) that most MAGAts are dumb enough to think that the cracker in Cracker Barrel is referring to a white guy.
 
JFC this shit is so stupid. Just perpetual white victimhood. Sadly, it will resonate with the MAGA taters.
It feels very clearly like all of the MAGA grifter social media folks got the newest culture war talking points at the same time because my timeline exploded with Cracker Barrel #OUTRAGE a littile while ago and that was before I even knew to look for it.
