Two Americas
This youtuber made a great video that simply illustrates the two Americas.
I don't see how these can be reconciled. Not interested in debating which side is shit, since you already know how I feel, and I know how most of you feel. Just look at this objectively and decide whether we can actually coexist under the same federal framework. I don't think it's possible any longer.

Ok cool. Could you forward those sentiments to the rioters in the street? I would, but being a white cis-gendered male, they aren't exactly open to me having a conversation with them.Penner wrote:Yesh, man calm down. Your side won the election- take a vacation or something....

Re: Two Americas
It may not look like it, but that group of people is not actually in your neighborhood. Turn off the tv and look outside.
You cannot even conceive of 350 million people, or how huge our country actually is. A couple of protests are not going to endanger the entire thing.

It must be. We get 10-20 posts a day around here, fantasizing about it.de officiis wrote:Yeah, but it's so exciting to think it might.GrumpyCatFace wrote:It may not look like it, but that group of people is not actually in your neighborhood. Turn off the tv and look outside.

I don't think anyone around here has a realistic idea of what a Collapse would look like for them personally. Think Somalia or Rwanda, but reaching across a continent.

Re: Two Americas
You about to see the real "Second America" in SoCal. If you really think the relatives of deportees who have had sanctuary in CA for the last 2 decades are going to go back to Mexico without a fight, you got another thing coming.
Protest Erupts in Downtown L.A. Following Reports of Immigration Raids at Homes Across Southern California
Immigration advocates and supporters gathered near the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown L.A. to peacefully protest ICE's reported actions. Demonstrators closed Aliso Street to through traffic near the Alvarado Street intersection for about two hours, chanting "No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here."

I mean, of course, the Great Patriots would take the chosen MHFers into their arms, march into Washington, and ask for the keys to government, receive them, and immediately reinstate an identical US Government without all the corruption.Xenophon wrote:I doubt your analysis.GrumpyCatFace wrote:It must be.

Re: Two Americas
I'm not saying it's not going to be bad for society in general when the collapse comes, but to say it'll be like Rwanda...I'm skeptical. Hyperbole in either direction does no one any credit.GrumpyCatFace wrote:I mean, of course, the Great Patriots would take the chosen MHFers into their arms, march into Washington, and ask for the keys to government, receive them, and immediately reinstate an identical US Government without all the corruption.Xenophon wrote:I doubt your analysis.GrumpyCatFace wrote:
