Yeah, running away to another country where you'll be an expat who can't actually influence domestic politics isn't gonna solve anything. I mean it's different if you're moving because of other reasons but still, c'mon.

Solaris 2.0 posted:If you live in the cities or the more progressive areas you will be right at home! The US is extremely culturally mixed with tons of diversity. Come to NY, D.C, San Fran, Chicago, Baltimore and you will love it. Trump and his MAGA fuckers do NOT represent the actual cultured parts of the US. This is my point though. I wouldn't have any trouble, but I can't really condone living in a country where the upper levels (and certain lower levels) of government are so actively trying to gently caress over groups of people they don't like.

They are a minority even if, politically, it doesn’t seem that way.

Dance Officer posted:Owns. There's a big difference between not serving someone based on an aspect of themselves they were born with, and choosing not to associate with someone because of their prolific association with racists or other shitheads. Huckabee could not be the mouthpiece for the administration tomorrow without any undue hardship, the couple in Colorado could not have just decided to have a straight wedding. How is it any different than for the restaurant to deny service to the national spokesperson of the KKK (or RAF if you want to cross ideologies) on the basis of their position?

To be fair a lot of dumbfucks think dumb beliefs are inseparable from someone's person because admitting an error is inconceivable.

If the Colorado Civil Rights Commission had shown a bit more decorum*, cake guy may well have lost. If by decorum, we mean the opposite of "gently caress you, gently caress you, shut up, shutup shutup!"

She Huck pretends otherwise but the outcry is as easy to explain as it is to understand: her fellow citizens simply can't believe she would behave in such a consistently outrageous and un-American way. MANAGEMENT RESERVES RIGHT is very American, so it's all good.

Ike chose the national highway system over reforming healthcare. Ike authorized overflights of the soviet union, which led to the gary powers shootdown. Ike authorized the coups in Iran and Guatemala, and laid the groundwork for Bay of Pigs and Vietnam. Ike is still the least bad president we've had since both Roosevelts and Lincoln.

I was born in 1970 in the UK. The media kept telling me that the USA was the place to be; it was freedom, it was democracy. It was the qunitissential aspiration for all. It was all bollocks of course. However, it would be pretty awesome if we could get that dream back. Please get well ASAP.

MRC48B posted:Certainly. To be honest, while I might not have picked all the same choices he did, these decisions are actually worthy of debate. Should we build a national road network or a healthcare system is a valid social choice. So is sending recon over the USSR when everybody is freaking out over hypothetical missiles. The coups are harder to justify but in the optics of the time... eh... Separate families or not separate families isn’t worth debating.
