    One of my kids got the full-meal-SJW-deal in HS and college. Then she spent the summer in a poor country on another continent where everyone there, including the doctors and teachers, had the same singular goal in life: To come to the United States.

    Not Europe. Not Asia. Not even Canada.

    The United Fucking States.

    We aren't just a silly people. We are a stupid, gullible people taking for granted everything the rest of the world would die for.

    God has a special providence for fools, drunkards, and the United States of America.

    We? are a silly people, but somehow it always seems to work out where we are still better off than everyone else. Maybe our luck continues and maybe not. Either way it will be interesting.

    China has numerous strengths and a shit ton of weaknesses.
    Immigrants see and seize opportunities that abound in the U.S., while too many kids born here spend their lives learning how to hate their country and society at the feet of communist, race-baiting teachers and privileged, dumb parents who should've never bred.
    Do you see the glass half full or half empty?

    Seemingly everywhere else in the world America is viewed as the land of opportunity.

    Anybody that has done any amount of travel not only within our country and outside of it understands why that’s the case.

    Too many in this country live in their bubbles and only see the world through that lens. Few understand what it means to take a long walk on the beach for perspective.

    Is this country perfect? Absolutely not.

    We should understand our imperfections and work to solve them. While I don’t necessarily agree with some of the whiplash response to policing issues in this country, I do think one of the great things about our country is that we can have those discussions.

    For those that want us to turn into a Scandinavian country for instance, you always have the option of moving there if that works for you. But when push comes to shove, nobody really does that. That whole action vs words thing you know.
    What I'm hearing is that I live on stolen land, my labor is not my own, and African slaves built everything around me, which I then stole or oppressed my way into possessing.

    Only an awful, horrible country would allow such fiends as myself to reside here. No?

    One of those things used to be the peaceful transfer of power.
    Yes. Because walking through open doors, opened for demonstrators by Capitol Police, is extremely violent in your world HH.

    But that's just because you're a wimpy faggot.
    You’ll excuse anything.

    Are they the ones that hit him over the head with the fire extinguisher?
    Still no word on the cause of death. Just like the complete government transparency surrounding our national hero George Floyd's death. Leftards lie and love to be lied to.
    Shot in the back while on his knees with his hands up, right?

    Oh, wait. That was the Ferguson Astronaut. My bad.

    Yes. The KobeSlobberer has so proclaimed based on his extensive public education indoctrination.

    Maher has spent his entire adult life voting for the people who have help to create the problems he is now complaining about. It's not conservatives who have made it impossible to build things in this country. Maher had a choice in this last election between someone who was confronting China and someone who would sell out to China. Who did he vote for?

    But Trump was an authoritarian and said some mean stuff. Who couldn't have voted for a bought and paid for dementia patient as the more intellectually competent alternative.

    Maher may be ironic and hypocritical. But people's viewpoints do change with age and experience.

    And if you've tortured yourself by watching any Colbert, Seth Myers or Trevor Noah, in the past 5 years, you'd find Maher a breath of fresh air compared to those wordy, unfunny Stepford Wives.

    Hell, I used to sort of liked Fallon but he couldn't blow the Luv Gov any harder. Colbert got Trump elected when he dissed him at the White House press event when barry was president. Not sure you could get more testosterone out of the late night crew than out of the one remaining Lance Armstrong's ball.

    But that's just it Maher hasn't changed. Yeah he is being critical of cancel culture and how we're dealing with China but if we had an election tomorrow between Biden and Trump Maher is still voting for Biden.

    He's in Hollywood. Unless he wants urine in every drink he pays for, he has to kiss some woke ass in his own community.

    And while I don't like giving the "at least" credit, at least he's calling it out, which is something worthy compared to those other Establishment Milquetoast robots.

    don't blame the Dems for the mess we are in - blame the D's and the republican's - like the wind the R and D establishment take turns screwing everything up. R's may point fingers at the D's, and vice versa, but between the them they did it.

    Follow the money - they all make the money or their families do. Need to bite the bullet and vote out the two parties
