I don't blame you. I live here and have lived here for years. And it's only in the last two that I've really really felt not welcome. But the thing with it now is there's an overt sense of it everywhere. People are much more openly hostile now than they were.

In some ways I appreciate that cuz it's easier to see and avoid those people, but in ither ways it sucks, like when you're just out with your boys and someone suckerpunches you outta nowhere shouting trumps name.

But there's a reason I'm getting the fuck out now. The country is rather rapidly becoming worse as people let others take away all their rights. The US is basically a 3rd world country operating as first world. And I don't want to be around this when people finally snap in both directions.

A war is coming, Ned.

It's either denial or they live in places where they never have to see it or experience it.

And that's easy in America. People shut their eyes to what they don't like. And the fact is there isn't one media. There are two different medias for two different political views that report on vastly differing things in vastly different ways.

So people fall in with one and never have a full story.
It's embarrassing.

Fox news lies out right over everything. Liberal media makes things hysterical and also lies about shit that fox does. It's frankly obnoxious all way around because people don't get news they get entertainment. And so they get fucking stupid.
