    I almost feel sorry for liberals. The republicans have it so easy. Usually all they need is a tautology/mantra to say to themselves like… “America is exceptional because it’s exceptional.” But liberals look at the world differently so they often have to create annoying mental constructs to explain how America is always exceptional. It must be exhausting for them. They need to explain and rationalize that America is still an exceptional country even if they know local homeless situation is awful or they hear their relative got fucked over by his insurance company to the tune of $80,000 or they learn that a black coworker with a pricey BMW routinely gets hassled by the cops simply because he’s black or the libs are considering sending their kids to an expensive private school they can’t afford because their public school system is awful.

    People in deep denial hate it when somebody makes them try to wake up. When a leftist makes a simple, factual observation like the homeless should be housed - I think some libs aren’t even aware they’re punching left. They think they are justified in attacking somebody trying to tear down America.

      in bad country, people shit in the street because there aren’t enough bathrooms

      I’d link this article to the next person I saw saying racist nonsense about other countries, but I also know they’d blame it on California being communism.
