    That might imply that it hasn’t been for generations.

    edit: suck my bare ass, all you trolls, bots, and various propaganda fucktoys. This nation is fully in the WIP stage, and has been from the jump, but if you honestly believe otherwise, I’m more likely to bet you’re a gawdamned idiot than trust your ability to cogently grasp the salient concepts.

      I must comment that I down voted not because of the content of your initial comment, but because of the tone of your edit.

      Insulting people doesn’t get your point across, I understand that there’s a lot of anger, but communication is really key and the time it takes to percolate is glacial. Yet by abuse understanding walks the other way.

      I’m this case it’s better to embrace the common consensus that the USA is fucked, where you agree, rather than focus on the throwaway ‘rn’ that you go off on.

      You don’t have to keep spiking that football, everyone who gives a damn about history knows and it downplays the very real worsening that is also happening.

        No, it most certainly does not, but applauding the silencing of our histories’ many lessons in its myriad failures most certainly is working in the favor of anti-intellectualism and other tactics of fascism. You do you, though.

        Oh, and by the way, do you know what they called Nazi apologists back in the day? I mean, you don’t really come across those two words used together much, you know. It’s because the correct term for a Nazi “apologist” is simply: Nazi. Just something to keep in mind, I guess.

          I’m gonna go on record and say I think you’re a good person, and I try to be too, and I think this has been a miscommunication. We’re all stressed as hell lately and I genuinely think of myself as on the same side as you.

            Fair points all, and FWIW, I’m sorry that your movie’ll never see the light of day. You, and those like you, are the ^mostly silent peacekeepers in the world — defusing uncountable conflicts every single day. Y’all should have an international holiday named after your Good works, NGL. 🙇🏽‍♂️🤘🏼
