America the angry!

[bill718]

For the last 40+ years, through both conservative and liberal administrations, most Americans say we're "headed in the wrong direction." I've spoken with many folks from Europe and Canada, and they can't understand this. Political discussions in those countries rarely become heated and lack the childish name calling and personal attacks so common here in America. Standards of living in Europe are no better than that of America, yet Europeans are happier and more optimistic of most Americans. Why is this? Maybe we still have a few things to learn from older cultures.

 

[Votto]

I blame Taylor Swift

Is it a mere coincidence that her popularity and politically heated atmosphere have coincided at the same time?

Only a fool would think so.

Because our politicians survive on division and the voting base lets them survive on it.
Now we have large segments of our society that want to sterilize children, cut off limbs etc.
Now we have large segments of our society that want cripple us by debt so we can send it to other countries and police the world.
Also, Europe is very collectivist. We arent.

Just because the Left is singing gas the Jews at every university in the world in no way means they are all insane.

However, it is a pretty good indication.

Bush 43 not a conservative/
The brown turd Obammy, Marxist/Demofascist.
President Trump 45 the peoples president where everyone with a brain was happy.
The big stealer Joe Bidumb worst president ever in the US. Carter is smiling....

Nonsense. Potato head has us all on the right path.

Trust in the power of the Potato.

 

[SeaMajor7]

A freaking century of Marxist Leninist infiltrating will do that to society.

Then you don't know Europe. The European Conservative and other periodicals have been running numerous articles on how extreme is the view in MANY European countries that things are on the wrong track. I won't argue with you, you are just completely wrong.

It was just about 40 years ago that a little guy with big ears scared the shit out of the two parties.

They had two choices, field better candidates or do all in their power to divide the country so we are too busy fighting each other and they can do whatever they want. They went with the latter and have worked to divide the nation to ensure the power of the duopoly is never again threatened.

The saddest part of all is how many people are happy, willing participants in this endeavor. There is now nothing in our country that is not made political, and that is be design.

It is one of the many reasons the wife and I will move out of the country when we retire.

Wrong track how?

Letting in too many Muslims?
Not paying enough for defense compared to the US?

Trump is less of a conservative then Bush 1 or 2 and you people would literally eat the corn out of his shit if he told you to.

It is just mind boggling.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

How much is enough?

lots of those people in other countries can get thrown in jail for what they say too.

Ross Perot?

View attachment 886830

He is the one. He showed that the power of the duopoly can be challenged, thus the great divide we now have.
