They are talking about striking in the national media, a conversation started by an Alexander-Hamilton-moderate-conservative. This is it, it has hit the mainstream media and word is getting out to the people that aren’t necessarily in the 50501, and like organizations, loop.

We don’t want things to go “back to normal”. We want REVENGE. Heads must roll.
I want får more revenge than you can possibly imagine.
But the problem isn’t David Brooks, it’s the infinitely racist south who love fascists as long as it means they can brutalize anyone brown or otherwise different without consequence.
Before the party switch the Republicans were just greedy, now their greed pales in comparison to their lust for cruelty. That’s the southern way.
Sherman needed to keep going, for another decade or two.
Given that the midwest, southwest and mid-atlantic also voted majority trump that seems like an odd focus, but okay.
Where do you think those ideals came from? The US wasn’t as big back then…
I lived in the Midwest too.
The Midwest voted to be left alone, especially for culture war issues.
The southwest voted to get rid of mexicans.
The Mid-Atlantic voted for culture war issues mostly.
The south voted to hurt people, just like they have in literally every election for 200 years. This is literally the region that fought a war for slavery, lost, and kept it anyway under a different name for 100 years, there ain’t no shame in their game.
Look at the margins, the south voted trump by a crazy landslide.
The small town in the Midwest I lived in was beautiful in the 1980s, then in the 90s nafta kicked in and we were infested by southerners moving north for jobs, bringing their drugs and crime with them.
They’re a plague, and they’re spreading.
Again that’s just a weird focus since the ‘hurt people’ thing applies to your other examples, but - fair enough. It’s not a contest.
Midwest is ABSOLUTELY not about hate.
They just want to be left the fuck alone.
Southwest wants them gone.
The south wants Jim crow back, where they can beat, torture and kill brown people with impunity.
Not that they can’t do that now, law enforcement sure won’t look closely.
You mean they don’t want to deal with the social issues the costal cities have dealt with.
No, they don’t.
They want to keep things as they are, and I think they should be allowed to within some restricted parameters.
If they were racist it would be one thing, but they generally aren’t, not are they significantly homophobic, they just want everyone to stfu and sit the fuck down.
The south, BTW, is INSANELY homophobic, still. Homosexuality is still a sin against God and while the risk of violence has decreased (in the 90s gay people were considered outside of the protection of the law, so if you beat one up, wellx shit happens, now you just tell the same jokes).
Never compare the Midwest and the south. One is just a bunch of people trying to be left alone and get by.
The other are literally the ones who Hitler cited in main kampf as the model Germany must follow, and where the Nuremberg Laws came from.
They’re genuine monsters ,the kind of people Americans used to claim to fight, and they will drag us back to their level because they’re cheap, stupid votes.
When they start the next civil war (and they will, it’s in their nature, you keep taking until you’re stopped, that’s the definition of strength), then we can finally fix this centuries long open wound that has been a cancer on this country.
Edit: forgot their rampant misogyny.
HA. Okay, sure.
I’m gonna.
