I’ve been thinking about this amped up conservative rhetoric that liberals and leftists hate America. We all know that’s BS. Right? Except it’s not, and we should respond to it for what it is.

“I love an America I grew up in. I love an America I believe in, that I lived most of my life in. Now, the idea of America that you’re fighting and “winning” for is killing that America I live in, that I love. So you’re right. I hate what you imagine America to be… because it is trying to murder the America that I love. And I don’t use the word “murder” lightly, and I apply it to you. And if that means to you that I hate America… then you’re right! The America you believe in isn’t lovable.”

That’s all.

    youre an “anarchist” who “loves america”

    buddy i think you should do some reading about your own country. maybe some reading about the ideology you supposedly hold. i believe these things are in total conflict with one another.

      Yes, obviously my point of view is just simplified like that and isn’t nuanced at all and jumping straight into trying to start leftest infighting is a great use of both our emotional energy. :)
