@FloppingAces @NanHayworth I don’t for a moment think all of the progressives believe their own rhetoric. There is a part of that crowd who know theu are destroying the West.

They really thought this was going to work forever, didn’t they? Run the country into the ground with idiotic energy policies, import millions of people to do the jobs the natives used to do, tell young men their entire heritage is a crime, then act confused when those same young men stop politely asking for a seat at the table. Brilliant strategy. Truly visionary leadership. In Canada they handed the keys to a guy whose main talent appears to be moving money from regular citizens into BlackRock-linked funds while smiling about “climate.” He helped engineer an economy where the only people getting ahead are the ones connected to the right funds and the right NGOs. Everyone else? Enjoy your higher costs and shrinking prospects. It’s for the planet, after all. Meanwhile the cultural class spent decades producing books, films, and academic theories whose main purpose was to make the people who actually built the civilization feel like villains in their own story. Worked great until it didn’t. Now the same young men who were supposed to quietly accept being replaced are looking around and realizing the people in charge have been running a very long, very profitable con. They broke family formation on purpose, flooded everything with propaganda about how awful normal life is, then imported a new population to keep wages down and social cohesion fractured. All while making sure their own kids would never have to compete with the results of their policies. The really funny part is they still think this is about “hate” or “extremism.” It’s not. It’s about noticing. And once enough people notice that the people running things have been actively hostile to their existence, the conversation stops being polite. The jokes are running out. The class that spent two decades treating the builders like a punchline is about to learn they weren’t laughing with them. (article below)

@FreddyLA7 Yet Europeans will say their 8,000 seat stadium is better because it’s in a neighborhood and called “Hingle McCringleberry Stadium”

@nursekat597 @LUFC1992_v2 The food isn’t always good, but it’s a sight to behold. Even angry rednecks are polite to each other at a Bud-ee’s. It’s like Disney World. A happy crowd.

Kyle Kulinski: “Left wing politics actually have masculine values." "Right wing values are what? P*dophilia? R*pe? Sucking off Israel? Selfishness, greed, manipulation, lies, endless war?"

@SkylarSkye3 @MasonD3 Are you in the South? There is no “small talk” in the South- there are full on life story conversations with strangers in the grocery store line though.

I didn’t expect this but Americans are ridiculously good at small talk. In the UK if a stranger starts chatting to you, you immediately assume they want something or want to rob you. Here people are just… nice?

@SkylarSkye3 Every time I go to Europe, I lose weight. It might be the walking, but I suspect the food is different.

Why does everyone call Americans fat? Most people I see here are handsome and athletic. Yes there’s loads of fast & processed food but everyone seems to work it off Where has this myth come from…

@shaunvlog_ People in the Northeastern US drive like Italians, except they lack that weird gene that allows Italians to not kill themselves.

@BuzzPatterson It’s refreshing to see expressed appreciation of things without some awful sanctimonious irony mixed into it.

You know what’s sad? It took a bunch of appreciative, curious foreign visitors exploring our incredible nation for some Americans to get it. They’ve become our new best friends sharing their newfound excitement.🔥 They’re out here wide-eyed, jaws dropped at the neon glow of Times Square, the soul-shaking majesty of the Grand Canyon blazing orange at sunset, the salty freedom breeze whipping through California redwoods, and the mouthwatering sizzle of a proper Texas BBQ under endless blue skies. And Democrats bitch… They’re snapping pics of NYC skylines piercing the clouds, cheering at Fourth of July fireworks lighting up the heavens like stars on steroids, and vibing to jazz in New Orleans streets and getting tours from sports teams. And Democrats bitch… Shoutout to every tourist who reminded us: America ain’t just a country, it’s a full-on vibe. A chaotic, beautiful, opportunity-packed fireworks show of a place. Wake up, Democrats! Fall back in love with your own backyard. The world already sees the magic — now it’s your turn. ❤️💥 For the rest of you Americans, what’s YOUR favorite slice of this epic nation?
