My coworker had her apartment robbed and then when the police came they took a statement, but when she said that their Xbox had been stolen the cops went over and started looking around and then finally determined there had never been an XBox there since they couldn't see a dust outline of one lmao besides that they didn't do anything

For far too long too many have been unwittingly a cult of personality for corporations and the corporate media conglomerates interests. Trump is trying to fix that brainwashing while all the places like CNN and independent.co.uk, and NYT will continue to make up false narratives, faked outrage, fabricated "unverified" stories and other tried and true mental distraction techniques.

I've been a white male all my life and never been negatively impacted by SJWs, at least to the point where I cared. Yet the internet seems to suggest I've lived a charmed life on that front. Sure, there have been some obnoxious protesters I've had to share space with, but that's the least of my problems. And those protesters were against the Iraq War when I was still for it, so egg on my face.

Had a lot of classes with a Palestinian feminist that was a bit terse on some subjects, but considering what the white-supremacist dragonkin that sat next to us in class put her through I can't blame her. Been mugged by a meth addict once, but that comes with the territory in Indiana. I like the local hunting and hiking scene, so it's nobody's fault but mine that I'm still here.

Sorry about Mike Pence by the by. Kinda voted for his predecessor and enabled that creepy bastard. I also shook his cold, clammy hand once at an event where he talked mad poo poo about HIV-prevention programs right before we had our outbreak. We're also responsible for a lot of Big Pharma money going into the renewed war on marijuana.

TLDR: "Crossroads of America" is a trap. Stay out of Indiana. Once you see the first billboard toting an anti-evolution crisis hotline it's already too late.

entire careers have been built around fostering outrage over the shadow of the sjw -- there are these weekly youtube peanut galleries where the hosts grab whatever outrageous stories they can find that week (and thee's always outrageous poo poo going on in the internet) and slap on some labels:

It is difficult to take a global hegemon seriously when your leader is a functional illiterate. Is there a real difference between someone who can't read and someone who demands that everything they do read be one page long and limited to nine or ten bullet points?

It's like he won't read anything unless it's below the reading level of a Cracked.Com article.

Thanks. Indiana has a charm to it, but family and memories are my only real ties to the place. The parks and caves are beautiful, but some idiot brought an infectious fungus to the area and a lot of our caves are closed to keep at least some bats alive. I grew up on the Ohio River and some of the older union workers around there have great stories, and some semblance of the spirit of solidarity. That's not the case with their replacements, sadly.

My maternal grandfather has both feet in the grave, but he's clinging to the mortal plane with his walker and calling Trump a "whiny bitch" all the way down. My paternal grandfather would have almost certainly been a Trump die hard, but he lost a fist fight with an oil derrick before I was born. One of my first jobs was operating oil wells in the same area where he died, which was a little awkward. Never did find the rig that killed him to get revenge.

I actually do sympathize (a bit) with the religious community angry that unoccupied homes are falling apart left and right while the young move off to live in cities. The trouble is they also don't like the nice Pakistani couple that moved in to the neighborhood and actually fixed up one eyesore to be quite nice. A few are putting two and two together, but the rest are... well... economically anxious about the derelict gas station's new management.

The day after Obama left office a convicted sex offender, who had previously led the Young Republicans chapter in the area, opened his years-in-the-making new enterprise in town, a tanning salon. Naturally, this was treated as proof that Trump was bringing jobs back.

For all I talk poo poo about it, I do like Indiana. Sure, we spearheaded the second coming of the Klan and it's infiltration of the State GOP with D.C. Stephenson, but we also had people like George R. Dale whose tenure at the Muncie Post -Democrat helped bring him down. He essentially mocked the old puppetmaster until his rapes, corruption, bribery, intimidations and other crimes, culminating in murder, finally mattered to voters.

I rather like his satire of Klan recruitment drives:
"Ain't it grand to be a one-hundred percent American and wear your wife's nightie and a mother goose cap and skalahoot around the country at night on wind broken pug? It's getting a hell of a lot for ten bucks."

(Ten bucks was the cost for the official Klan robe. Though Stephenson probably would have been a prolific shitposter here if given the chance.)
