Why are you so bitter, over so little, as you are; if you don't have troubles? I find that hard to believe.
I think a lot of Americans, especially in Red America, where the Awakening did not penetrate very far, are not very aware of what's going on within themselves emotionally, sociologically, psychologically. You guys are not very introspective. So you assume you are feeling fine, and doing fine, when you are not; and that your family background was cool when in reality it was oppressive. Or you have the habit of acquiescing in that oppression in many ways. And you project these ignored feelings into your political resentments, stirred up by Donald Trump and other Republican authoritarian demagogues. Of course, I'm not sure just what is the case with you. The authoritarian attitude is quite evident though.
