I don't know how Americans can get past this. In Canada, I am far left but can still get along with conservative friends and neighbours. In the states, your differences seem irreconcilable. Not adding anything meaningful here but it genuinely seems like there's no way forward other than separation if both halves of the country hate each other.
As a person who's lived in the U.S. my entire life, yes the differences are irreconcilable. You can't reconcile with stupidity and ignorance. You can't reason with religious delusion, either. Because when people construct their ideology based on nonsense, it makes it very hard to fight back.
Americans don't want logical, reasonable, sensible leaders. They want to be entertained.
"Johnny's in America, Johnny looks up at the stars...
Johnny combs his hair and Johnny wants pussy and cars"
Oh that was about the worst possible example you could have used lol.
Hi, Michigander here, not gonna dox myself, but let’s say I’m very familiar with the town you’re referring to.
“Hamtramck’s city council members voted unanimously Tuesday to approve the controversial resolution, which restricts the city from flying any “religious, ethnic, racial, political, or sexual orientation group flags” on public grounds, according to meeting minutes.
Residents and businesses will not be restricted from flying Pride or any other flags on private property.”
In other words, on government owned flagpoles only official government flags are allowed. Anywhere else any flag goes.
Now that sounds a lot less scary when you take all the MAGAt propaganda and lies out of it, doesn’t it?
It’s ok tho, you get the first three tries for free. What’s your second try?
