all the education and child bride stuff is real bad, the way america treats its kids is among the most disgusting things about the place basically a bunch of demon crackers break away from a demon cracker empire and start cargo culting their own empire but they're too poorly nourished and educated to understand anything about society

Oklahoma Democrats kept running pro-choice candidates but still kept losing elections over and over again anyway. nopantsjack posted:all the education and child bride stuff is real bad, the way america treats its kids is among the most disgusting things about the place The worst thing about it is that it's all done under the cover of being a "pro-family" culture, and that we're trying to make a world that's safe for kids. But instead we just end up brutalizing children and infantilizing adults.

I don't even know how you can turn things around in places like Oklahoma because in about 1/3 of the country I'd say the Democratic brand is downright poisonous. A significant portion of your voter base will just straight up not vote for anyone with a D next to their name. Republicans essentially run unopposed in generals and rack up massive supermajorities in statehouses and that's how you get poo poo like the Oklahoma "3/4 supermajority to raise taxes" clauses which lead to these places just becoming shitholes of hyperausterity because the government has no means to raise money.

Child Bride, an 80 year old, really hosed up movie, was made to draw attention to this poo poo and try to get it banned. In 1938. 80 years ago. It took 80 years for a state to go and actually do it.

The official poverty line in the US is ridiculously low, by my quick google fu a single person working full time at any rate above $5.80 per hour is not in poverty.

A lot of dirt roads got paved here in the 90s-early 2000s and a lot of the money seemed to come from Game & Fish grants because it made getting to the lake easier Of course since then the chuds have swept local government and won't fill a pothole if they know a Democrat lives in that zip code lmao
