Simple. Back then were still naive enough to believe that there would be justice served.

The current president is a culmination .... a celebration ... of the general dumbing down of the American public.

They spent the past 50 years just generally deluding themselves to the point where stupidity, complacency and ignorance is just celebrated and rewarded.

It's a nation of idiots .... a nation of idiots with nuclear weapons.

I was working the day of j6 and I will never forget all of my coworkers watching it and fully cheering like it was the Super Bowl.

Decades of propaganda and large regions of our nation with inadequate public education.

Trump was the perfect storm. Everybody that held some form of bigotry could see themselves in him. Because how could he be a bad person if they weren’t a bad person.

This is the one I've heard. By my own father, no less. I had no idea how to respond to it.

Someone once said, "You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into." Something along those lines, anyways. That expression has saved me from many a pointless argument.

Mine was when I was a kid and learned Americans had a right to carry firearms.

The only thing that differentiates us from other primates is we run. They just like violence, gets them riled up.

I don't think you are correct here.. just a hunch.

Because so many Americans hate America and what it stands for. They hate anyone who isn't like them, and they like that it bothers you. They enjoy your frustration and your confusion, because it gives them a feeling of power they would otherwise never experience on their own merits.

The only reason a sizable chunk of the country wasn't there partaking would have been the cost of travel and time.
