You know, bounty, I'm gonna agree with you on this one. There's a lot that we "urban elites" don't get:
-- We don't get why a vote cast in Wyoming counts more than one cast in California or New York. We don't get why a state should be penalized for being vibrant enough to attract a large population. It's the United States of America and the founders distrusted the idea of Federal government. You're complaining about the Constitution? The document which provides protection for minorities? Because it's providing protection for a minority you don't agree with?
See, this demonstrates what I've said all along. Minorities are no more virtuous than anyone else. Given power, they also try and oppress other minorities. Gay people are every bit as big a bunch of assholes as everyone else.
quote:
-- We don't get why "rugged individualism" and "pulling yourselves up by your bootstraps" apply to all poor folks except white Republicans. I must've missed all those poor white families in the Southern states who were getting massive amounts of government aid - could you point some out for me?
quote:
-- We don't get how "family values" are served by arguing for dissolving the marriages that hold many of our families together and threatening to shatter immigrant families through mass deportations. So you think the borders should be porous and the United States should spend an increasing amount of its dwindling tax base on supporting leeches who've entered the country illegally do you? How nice of you to decide how everyone would like their tax dollars spent.
quote:
-- We don't get why folks cheered when an elected official in Kentucky decided that her personal interpretation of God's will trumped the law of the land and the duties of her office. You don't understand why folks cheer an elected official but you think people who won't listen to your elitist lecturing are unreasonable. Tell me, when does the 'thinking' part of this diatribe commence?
quote:
-- We don't get how people turn a cheerful "Happy Holidays" from a retail clerk into an assault on their faith. We don't get the assumption that Christmas is the only holiday that counts in a season full of them. There's been a general assault on Christianity throughout the US from liberal types who like to cozy up to Islam. The elimination of any sentiment which makes an overt reference to Christianity is an example. People tend to dislike social engineering, so why the fuck are you trying to defend it with such self-righteous fervor?
quote:
-- We don't get why Rust Belt folk argue that they, and only they, should be exempt from the laws of economics. What the fuck are you talking about?
quote:
-- We don't get why a party that has spent decades telling us not to trust the government is now surprised and offended that we're reluctant to trust Trump and Pence. From memory, the GOP doesn't trust "big government", but I'm not the expert on their platform. And it's not your reluctance to trust that's at issue, it's your crying like a bunch of spoilt children which is the problem. I mean, really - your fucking pantsuit doesn't get elected and the amount of fucking whining emanating from Leftist crybabies is truly pathetic - it confirms what I've been saying which is that your obsession with victim-hood and safe spaces is turning out a bunch of fucking pseudo-adults who are simply not equipped to cope with the real world.
You. Are. Pathetic.
quote:
-- We don't get how we're expected to "come together" with Americans who chose to support a man who spent the whole campaign demonizing vast groups of people. So apparently you're now so stupid you can't see your own hypocrisy. You're the ones who've spent decades demonising anyone white, male and heterosexual and now you're wondering why they didn't "come together" and vote with you?
Here's a news flash. You're not coming together with the rest of America, because you're a bunch of fucking cunts. Try not being such an asshole and see if that works a little better than your current "You white male, cis, heterosexuals are all pieces of shit" approach.
And try thinking about this one. 4 and 8 years ago, the SAME AMERICA voted in a liberal Black President. So were they racist, misogynist pieces of shit, then? Or did everyone suddenly change overnight?
quote:
-- We don't get how struggling red staters have decided that their salvation lies in a billionaire who lives in a gold-plated Manhattan triplex and is notorious for stiffing those for work for him. As opposed to a multi-millionaire who cozies up to corporations and owes favours to other billionaires. Yeah, you're right, I don't know what they were thinking. Why would they choose the billionaire over the corrupt liar? It boggles the mind.
quote:
-- We don't get why we're expected to respect and understand Americans who have no interest in respecting or understanding us. You've been pandered to for far too long. You don't give respect which is why you don't get it. You're a lecturing, hectoring babble of self-appointed experts on every subject in the world - especially those which you have no fucking clue about.
quote:
-- We don't get how "patriots" rally round a guy who calls for jailing his political opponents and muzzling the press. Oh, that's easy. The Press is corrupt and people know it. And politics is dominated by an oligarchy and the people know it. You're wondering why they're rallying around an outsider who rails against those things which bother them? What do you need, a fucking picture drawn for you?
quote:
-- We don't get how anyone can see the eruptions of hatred since the election and not find them disquieting. Because they're utter bullshit. Many of them are fake and there's no evidence there's been an increase in "hatred" unless you've been monitoring it all along. They don't document an increase, they just document occurrences. All this means is, the Leftist press is suddenly paying attention to these stories and trying to use them to build a narrative. Because the Press is hopelessly corrupt.
quote:
-- We don't get how folks who've spent the last eight years being as obstructionist as possible, including denying a highly qualified Supreme Court nominee even the courtesy of a hearing, now have the gall to lecture us about the need to "support" the president-elect. I'll give you this one. The GOP are comprehensively full of shit. Their lack of progress and obstructionism over the last 8 years is an appalling betrayal of their responsibility to govern.
quote:
Yep, there's plenty we don't get about the U.S. of A. these days.
Pull your head out of your ass, you'll start to understand it more... but only if you stop telling yourselves how much better than everyone else you are.
