      More like our ability to tolerate madman. He is just one person. This does not bode well for the future of the US.

        I dunno, seems like a certifiable bunch of people have been trying to do something about this “just one person” this past year and a half.

        It absolutely isn’t “just one person” either, this is the entire system. The rot is just laid so bare with this one fucking guy.

          Lol true.

          Oh the rot was always there, but our tolerance of Trumplethinskin is amazing honestly. Did he expose the rot or simply strip away all the coating to allow the rot to spread to the outside.

    Trump really can’t get over having lost to Biden. He is the definition of “sore loser”.

    Man, I can’t wait for the Trump plaque which isn’t written like a six year old throwing a tantrum, and which contains actual facts about the Trump presidency.

        Had to Google what they actually say about Trump and Biden. This article made it sound slightly biased plus the petty ”Sleepy Joe” part. The plaques are in fact hilarious, on par with a Trump tweet in their tone, entirely biased, mostly fictional. This to me is one of the top pettiest things he has done, since it’s a plaque in an official government building.

      There should be a three century minimum for being a country. Otherwise you’re just a mature settler colony.

          I mean, the 90s were kind of nice in the USA. There was a real optimism for the future. We were gonna solve racism, we were gonna democratize information, we were going to judge everyone on the content of their character. Technology was always going to improve. We were gonna cure cancer, for God’s sake.

          Then Social Media happened in the 2000s. So much for that…

            Laughs in literalist:
            “There was a point in recent history that a significant portion of the population, with enough sampling from ethnic subgroups, had decent opportunity to eke out a comfortable living. Those days that burn fresh in memory, are seemingly gone.”

              so there’s a line that’s defines “significant?”

              because yeah. 40 years ago houses were affordable. but govs were still fire bombing city blocks in philly because some brown people upset them.

                Really bad, but the difference is the volume and scale. US government oppressing ethnic minorities is a horrible act, but not a new one. US government deliberately oppressing a large fraction of the majority is.

                Doesn’t make it better or worse, but it is a marked shift

                  right. thats my point. there isn’t a scale such as a binary, thus it has never been a “good” (as in healthy) nation, in its black and white (again a binary) form.

                  i’m just trying to push a rhetoric that stops folks from pining for day bygone that were better. they have never been better, just different
