I'd wager most of those would be on the rednecky side.
Seriously though.... it blows my mind how people have really bought into the us vs. them mentality.
Do they not understand the divide and conquer strategy, or at least the diversion the finger-pointing creates ?
I genuinely weep for our country.
Merging and expanding the power of corporations and the state, scapegoating society's weakest minorities, discrediting all news except for what comes from the leader, who is a strongman who subverts the government and rules by decrees... seems like there's a word for all this, but damned if I can remember what it is.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
