The new rp story sounds amazing.

I think we all understand pink. It been hard for everyone. No one here is going to judge you for snapping. I am just happy u are better now.

Did you guys hear what’s going on in America right now? It’s really scary.

Yeah. I'm of the mind that the protestors need to be shot summarily for disturbing the peace like this. You don't attempt to take over a government body with guns and force. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

History disagrees. In fact, I'm of the opinion that America was designed to be overthrown by an enraged armed populis as a last ditch effort to remove a corrupt government. That being said, I'm not particuarly fond of using armed force to swing an election. It doesn't set a great example.

The way I've had it described, being in a mob is like taking drugs - you're enraged and do things you would normally question without a second thought. An initially peaceful protest can easily end in murder and pillage if the group is directed towards an enemy. But, regardless of their political ideology, they are normal people. I would never advocate for their death as a first resort.

Wait, so you're saying that summarily executing an armed group of protestors will make things worse? The thing they don't have in their favor is that 50% of the nation give or take wants nothing to do with their little hiss fit. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

You can't narrow down what changed in America. One really big issue that I can think of is corruption, and gerrymandering on the part of our leaders just so they can continue to hold power and make billions of Dollars from special interests groups like the Koch brothers. (Although one of the two is dead now) both parties are corrupt, so the average American distrusts the leaders they disagree with. To the point that when the Avg Joe #1 talks about which politician he supports, he has the potential of pissing off Avg Joe #2 with his political issues. That's the biggest issue.

Identity politics are all good and all but they are a problem too. The media literally uses identity politics to enrage Americans against each other. Democrats pander to lgbtq folks, While Republicans are gung ho about Christian identity and religious freedom. It feels like America has been in social politics mode since the 60's and hasn't changed since. We're talking 60 years of the same shit. Black's vs whites, Straight Christians vs gays, Trans vs everyone else. Nothing has changed.

There was a Supreme Court decision in the 1990's I think that decided corporations are people, which paved the way for all the lobbyists to descend on Congress like locusts on grain. You can make serious money as a politician or a lobbyist, and as a result nothing gets done.

There's a book called Hillbilly Elegy which tells of the plight of Rust Belt and Bible Belt America. While places in NYC were bustling with business, small towns in Ohio and the people in them had no work, no ability to leave the homes they bought in the 60's when there was a booming industry in things such as steel, in Pennsylvania, or cars in Pontiac Michigan. Trump comes along one dy and promises to restore jobs in those areas and he gets elected. All of this leads up to where we are now. People are fed up with being forgotten by the well-to do elites in Washington. Can guarantee we'll be in Civil war by decade's end Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

If there is anything to learn from Trump's presidency, then it is that you can't forget about the little guys in Ohio, Pensylvania, Michigan, and Alabama. But all of this is no excuse for taking over a govt building armed with guns. In any other nation, those protestors would be summarily shot, or met with military force. I've never seen Americans get so desperate to undo a legally obtained election. This goes beyond BLM's "peaceful" protests, this is terrorism. They should be thrown in Gitmo like we did with the 9/11 masterminds, if not thrown in jail for life.

But in all honesty, my mood was not that good yesterday. My bloodthirst is showing again and I need to keep it in check before I lose my sanity again and end up in the mental hospital again. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!
