The hate is caused by the media constantly fanning the flames. The Dems along with Obama did their share with the class warfare approach to politics. Be honest. Anyone who disagreed with Obama's politics, was labeled a racist by his supporters.
In real life very few people express their opinions like they do on here. On here they are anonymous, they are safe from accountability.
CD isn't real life. You've got kooks here on either side. The media is doing things to this nation that is so beyond immoral in my opinion. The problem in my opinion is that enough people arent savvy enough to see propaganda and understand the power dynamics at play. The elite are punching down and the media, politicians and big tech are all in on the game.
Keep the populace mad, divided, and upset so we won't see the raping and pillaging the elites are perpetuating on the American people.
And that is what is wrong with the USA. Won't acknowledge its past misdeeds, to heal the wounds, and compensate those that were affected. Germany did so to Israel until 1989, and also paid Poland, Russia, Greece and other countries. Why not? What is different between the genocide of Jews by the Nazis and the genocide of Native Americans by the United States??
Genocide is genocide. It was a calculated policy by the US government.
You are free to acknowledge anything you want, as for me, there are no past misdeeds so no wounds to heal or compensation for those who claim to be affected because of their imagination. I worked for my pay check, so should others, I have no possible reason to allow anyone to put their greedy monkey on my back and no redistribution of my life savings.
I am glad you are concerned about American history and highly recommend a book called Empire of the Summer Moon which describes how stolen infants were burned alive on Indian fires among other atrocities. The book is one of the most unbias history books out there, not rewriting history for the pity me game. Today, Native American Indian women are murdered by other Indians than any other female group in America.
The calculated policies by obummer has been an American disgrace so he is dangerous for decent people who actually earned their way in the world. He is a life long product of living off the American taxpayer and has never been capable of anything else and has nothing to contribute.
Look it up, but there were reparations paid by the US gov’t some years ago to tribes. And were given land near Mt. Rushmore.
"They" already owned the land. A genocide was performed on many tribes. The list is long. The land was stolen from them. Period. They are owed reparations, or the land returned to them. It's not their fault invaders from the east "developed" it. Ask Oklahoma.

Whose land are non-natives on? What makes that land, stolen in a genocide, legitmate?

Yet apparently we aren’t vile enough to (pre-COVID) have discouraged some snowbirds .
and I'm going off of memory, lets see how well I do
His original "positive" list was... 7th in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th in life-expectancy, 178th infant-mortality, 3rd in medium household income, 4th in labor force, and 4th in exports.
My question was, if we were #1 in all of those, would that make us a great country? If not, what would?

People only come here for one reason. And they only stay here for one reason.

People want money. As long as the government is making the economy grow, they don't care if we're a democracy or a totalitarian state, and neither do the corporations who hold the real power.
Because people hate things, people and ideas that they do not understand. They hate because other people are different from other people. They don't like it when others force feed ideals, facts, differences upon others. People loves to feel inferior, yet burdened by those who question their motives and ideas. These same "inferior" beings sees the rest of us as road blocks who gets in the way of their takeover.
