I'm all good as far as money and property are concerned. Hint: We didn't take your jobs. The Democrats basically gave them to the world. You need to think about all the happy Mexicans and Chinese that were created with your parties sacrifice. I mean, come on, how do liberal frat boys really have in common with the working class. Really, I do feel sorry for those folks and wish they had good politicians who cared more about them and less about supporting them enough to keep themselves in office. I understand that the bulk of your base is pretty clueless and uncaring as far as the going on in the world. I understand the liberal educated get the bulk of their information networks that cater to them. Its so funny to see how they react when they when they're challenged by someone who has a bit more brain than they're accustomed too. BTW, they don't seem to care about the working class as much as they're concerned about the poor.
It seems like life experience has exposed you two to divergent sorts of folk? If so, your assumptions of how humans and members of various cultures behave are incompatible? I'm also seeing some vile stereotypes? Those with different values are presumed to be vile in one way or another?
I tend to trust more what people say positively about their own culture, and be dubious about attempts to slander folks they disagree with. If this goes on focusing on slandering the other guy, I'd not trust much of it.
Still, it shows how and why we get divided. All one has to do is nurse grudges and think the worst about those who think differently and we end up where we are.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
