People should be allowed to exist

Social programs aren't communism

The system isn't working for the people

Edit:

I've changed my mind on this.

Let the DNC go full MAGA and when they lose, because they will lose, they get the heat and we can eject them forever. At least sit them in a corner.

Progressives, you fight if you want but I don't believe the elections will be fair so it's a win win for you.

Lol, America has never stood for inclusion. Every new demographic has faced extreme bigotry. People had to fight tooth and nail to be included. They literally had to amend our founding document several times because of it.

We should definitely try to be better, but let's not pretend that the US wasn't built on the bodies of people who wanted to be included.

Yes every demographic faced bigotry. But the ideal of America was that it's not supposed to be that way.

So when did Anglo saxons face bigotry in America?

Well yeah, it's the American Dream, and dreams aren't real.

That's because most people don't have the will, grit or fortitude to work for better they may never see. It's sad.

It's unbelievable selfish short sightedness, isn't it? It's astounding to think about when you realize that these freaks think they're doing what's best because they're so propagandized to think that worrying only about yourself and your closest relatives is what's right and good, meanwhile the rest of us are trying to ensure there's a world for the children of 160 years from now to inherit.

It doesn't matter. There's something to be said for doing what you honestly believe is the right thing, even if that means being alone.

Yeah, basically the only times the US flag was used by the 'correct' side of a conflict are the civil war, WWI and WWII. Everything else is basically genocides and imperialism.

Yeah I'm over trying to reclaim the American flag. It's been entirely lost as a symbol and can never be redeemed.
