People who call America an iredeemable, racist shithole are just as stupid as those calling it perfect and the greatest country on earth.

The truth is always somewhere in between, and if you deal in absolutes, you're either 5 years old, or just a massive moron.

Are you an enlightened centrist? I basically feel that this country is barely redeemable. The working class people, yeah we are all family. I'll get along with anyone who doesn't literally want me dead for my beliefs. But activists and protests keep pushing the buttons of the system, and it just... it's barely moving. Even a little bit of power has people extremely resistant to auditing and reform.
