People complaining how ugly the US has become need to turn their electronics off and get back out into the world among their fellow Americans.

We are a country full of beautiful, kind, and loving people. Everywhere. We interact by the millions with each other every single day, without discussing politics, race, or anything of the like.

Our world has become distorted and hateful when you view it through the media and the internet. When you leave these false narratives behind and re-enter the “real world”, you’ll discover for yourself the reality that our nation is full of wonderful people.

You’ve really outdone yourself with your usual silly flapdoodle here.

Canada is white AF.

There is no evidence if it continues to be hidden...show us the voting machine audits and proper tacking of documents:

This is so true and why we cannot put our head in the sand and surrender!

America has been a nation of stark divides from day one. This is nothing new. The hate and disdain that has taken place in America, is as old as America itself. Just look through American history.

Why? Where do you live? And you never know what people will put up with. I grew up in a right-wing area, and there are still leftist people moving there.

Canada does not have the high percentage of blacks and mestizo Hispanics that the United States has. Canada is highly selective in its immigration policies. Plus, Canada has only 1/9th the population of the United States.

Not a valid comparison.

I disagree. The hate we see in America is as old as America itself. Social media, media, and entertainment merely reflect what has always been there.

I was a tech guy in a higher education organization. But as an employee we were spoon fed all the politically correct propaganda the academics dreamed up in the name of required "diversity" training which didn't foster better employee relations. But it did make it very difficult to terminate a bad employee if they were a minority.

We had a saying...."The longer I work here, diverse it gets."

Okay then. I want you to do more than just say that. I want you to expand on this point and explain yourself on how you think Blacks and Hispanics play a role in hate being a problem in America. I will likely not like what you have to say, and I will likely come up with a counterpoint, but just the same, explain your point in further detail.
