I honestly do not care. This country needs real change very, very badly. It may be that the only way to accomplish what needs to be done requires a certain amount of authoritarianism. American cities are corrupt cesspools full of people who are cheating or gaming the system. The violence and drugs and constant organized theft are a curse on this country and its economy. There is a reason that "Try that in a Small Town" was such a big hit and a reason that Trump is stomping Biden in the polls despite being under an avalanche of indictments. We are literally going to hell in a handbasket. Something needs to change.
Honest question - I ask this sincerely . . . Do you ever go outside? Ever talk with actual people (not your TV screen)?
I ask because you talk about a world that I don't think exists. I am outside every day. Interacting with all kinds of people every day. I live in a small city, visit a large "lefty" city quite frequently - often taking my kids there, travel the countryside regularly, tour our parks, buy groceries, coach soccer, walk and bike everywhere and talk with hundreds of random strangers in all kinds of settings as a way of life. Is everything perfect? No, of course not. But the world you describe simply does not exist. Or, at the very least, I have not found it in my rather extensive wanderings.
So, do you actually go outside? Where do you experience such hell?
