Wisconsin: 6.5/10. It's got some nice scenery, but crappy climate like most the rest of the upper Midwest.

7.5/10. I've not only been to Vegas and Reno, but drove all the way through east Nevada. I like the landscape, nature, and mountains. But, holy shit is Nevada empty. No wonder they did nuke testing there.

Whenever they try and whitewash slavery and how America has done no wrong, I like to steer them into what happened to the native Americans. It's even harder for them to justify the stuff done to them.

Yes. Japan bombing pearl harbor was basically why debt peonage was outlawed. Thanks, I guess...?
Kit Baltoro (@kitbaltoro.bsky.social) reply parent
The story behind it getting banned is absolutely wild too. Turns out nobody cared until Japan bombed pearl harbor and the propaganda war started. Americans figured out japan would rightly rip us for having a form of slavery, so Roosevelt banned it so they couldn't get a propaganda win.

Literally, there was still black people legally kept as slaves until 1941 to "pay off debts".

But when you agree that that may be a possible important component and propose a solution like making mental healthcare more affordable and widely available, they suddenly throw that out that as an excuse too. Turns out, they don't even give a fuck about the scapegoat either.
