various assassinations, the brink of nuclear apocalypse, an unpopular political war away from home that caused a social movement, and political espionage.

It’s like we’re cursed.

    Agree 100%.

    Although I don’t just blame the old people, a lot of them were hippies.

    We’re still the same divided country we were in the civil war, racists and oligarchs vs people of better character.

    Trump has, even at this early point, permanently changed the political realities of this country. He will be remembered for elevating the presidency to the point where the rule of law no longer applies.

      A lot of them were hippies that became selfish assholes. People change. Especially when there are propaganda networks working to change them.

      We’re still the same divided country we were in the civil war

      Except now every stupid, racist asshole has the ability to spread their message to millions of people.

      Don’t say you agree 100% and then say although.

      feel free to delude yourself, don’t try to dilude other people.
