The dog whistles are getting more violent.Those of us who truly want to make America great again have one choice: Fight. Our situation is similar to President Lincoln's in 1861. He had to make the choice between fighting until he won or giving up on the idea of the United States. Once again, our country is at stake.

We should just let you win on one condition, and that condition is that we officially close the USA and you can name what comes after anything but "the USA". You don't get the flag either, you can add as many colors as you want to the new one. Better than killing so many again I think.

It would be rather one-sided since they have all the guns and the military. However, at this point I might voluntarily agree to live somewhere where I don't have to deal with racist fundamentalist homophobes.

Blue states have the economy, just like the North.

I don't think that's true anymore. Liberals live in and control the big cities, but conservatives dominate the countryside. Even in safely blue states.Zarathud wrote:Blue states have the economy, just like the North.

Nah, it's easy to defeat whiny snowflakes like the current conservative group. We'll just take it all and you can join the crybaby in chief in a nice, long sobfest afterwards.em2nought wrote:We should just let you win on one condition, and that condition is that we officially close the USA and you can name what comes after anything but "the USA".

The more an animal is cornered, the harder it fights back. The country is slowly, painfully, moving past religious fundamentalism. The election of Trump was the last desperate gasp of a party that has failed to adapt to changing times. It doesn't surprise me in the least that they're willing to do anything at this point - even put their faith in a con man or burn the country down around them. They're in pure survival mode.
We'll come out on the other side a better country for it, but it's going to be a bloody road in the short term.

The traditionalists would expect safe harbor in Argentina, while some of the good ol' boys might head to Brazil as well.LordMortis wrote:Is Russia going to take that many US Immigrants?hepcat wrote:Nah, it's easy to defeat whiny snowflakes like the current conservative group.

I'm the pacifist in this thread, interesting. I don't really want to kill a bunch of you because it's basically our fault we let you be misled in the first place, and of course I'd prefer not to die myself. If only we had made them put School House Rock on the trailer on every DVD instead of a frickin' FBI warning. sigh.

You should immediately tweet how everyone is being unfair to you. Then follow it up with a press conference where you simply pout for 30 minutes while looking like you're on the verge of crying at any second.
I miss leadership with a backbone. Instead we're stuck with a wimpy man child who can't take an insult without getting upset. But don't worry, he won't be president long. I know you're secretly wishing for that, so don't try to hide it.
