America has a Problem
America has a Problem

Well said.
👏👏👏👏
Well, the billionaires have the coin to make things right financially.
We can’t trust them to do anything, but we can claw our money back and take care of ourselves, each other and the biosphere.

America’s ugly truth doesn’t change the fundamentals. All people are created equal, endowed by the creator with the inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That is why this country has been great since 1776. Not because of who we are, but because of who we could be.
We need to try harder.
We strive for a more perfect Union. With justice for all.

The North should have finished the Civil War.
america has been loved worldwide for the wip it is, that part of the declaration of independence they are trying to remove from history. the germans enacted laws so they will never forget their iniquities so it may be the safest place on earth right now.
Very moving and 100% truthful.

democracy is an ideal yet not achieved. What this country is actually built on is the oppression of others in a caste system kept secure by offering just enough comfort to those in the middle to turn a blind eye
Absolutely 💯
I can answer that, The Country is like this because of 77 million racist traitors voted for a child rapist. Done, you are welcome.
I have to be honest, this is the kind of stuff thst gets Trump elected.
Why?
The orange monster still has 70% approval from Republicans. It's horrible but no Ned to piss people off who are on the fence. Why are they on the fence? They know he's a piece of shit but the other side is telling them they are pieces of shit, or their country is. They don't like it.
It turns voters away from his opponents by allowing him and his followers to argue their opponents hate America. You may not like it but it's true.
That might have worked a year ago. We are in the middle of a great disillusionment. People on the fence are realizing who really hates America. Only the most diehard MAGAs look around and think things are great.
Maybe what is happening now will open our eyes to the ugly truth and give us the desire to change our ways.
💯THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS💯
I’ve been to Berlin a dozen times and I never cease to be amazed how Germans have memorialized and codified the sins of its past. They understand that the only way not to fall backwards is to be continually and matter-of-factly remind people & politicians what evil that past actually consists of.
That doesn't explain why the Germans now have the far right AfD with self-proclaimed Nazis & Elon Musk encourages them to "just forget about it."
Powerful stuff and I don’t disagree with any of it.The US is split down the middle and filled with hate. It will take many generations to cleanse if that’s ever achievable. The US is a fully fledged fascist state which will only get worse over time.
Yep

America started with land theft, ethnic cleansing, 2 species extinctions- chattel slavery - then Jim Crow, the kkk and ecological devastation by the 1930s so my expectations are low - very low!
If Americans want to learn the authentic history of America, come up to Canada and attend a Canadian college, (college or university up here) and take whatever courses you want, but take American history as a minor. The tuition is much less up here. Plus you can legally drink at 19 up here.
Everyone MUST remember accept and Finally stop Racism ✋️ Stand up. One person at a time. Every time you see or hear it 💔
Agree 💯

That is brilliant. And VERY TRUE.
Texas is a living example They took the land from Mexicans They took rights from Mexicans They deported Mexicans born in Texas They couldn't even free slaves when the rest of the country did Today, they want to redistric, so the small % of whites rule the large % of non whites... laws? What laws.

Oh please! You’re going back several centuries! Since than the people built a strong Country, full of opportunities. One reason why my family came here from Italy during WW1. I am so sick of hearing about what the first settlers and others did in coming to America!
You act like the white people invented slavery and wars, that is such BS! Africans sold their own people into slavery. Many countries had slaves. Even white people were slaves in other countries. Read your damn world history! And stop creating hate!
This is the best example of what American history books teaches I've ever seen. A perfect way to illustrate OP's point.
Trump voters declared: "The South will rise again". They meant Confederate cruelty.
