MODERATORS
Have you ever noticed that 99% of the time the point of a post is to evoke an emotional response?
The same could be said of most songs, poetry, fiction.
Someday we will invent a way to convey emotions without that intermediate step. That will be impressive.
This is a great argument for weak/selective law enforcement. Because there are always exceptions.
Like, for rich people?
And wives of rich people?

Classic assumption that "the left" doesn't love this country.
Whenever I’m driving through highways, hiking at the Adirondacks, walking around nyc, visiting my friends in LA, I’m always in the awe of this country. Fuck these people who think we don’t “love” this country.

Love that phrase…”love this country”.
What does it even mean? The citizens? The flag? The physical land and soil that encompasses “this country”? Love the government? If so, what about the government do you love? The governments policies? Laws? The constitution? The actual government employees? Which ones? The president? A combination? How is the combination divided?
Also, depending on the answer to the above, why? Because you were born here? You think it’s better than other countries? How are you defining “better”?
Stupid phrase imo.
For me loving a country is a natural love of home. It's a sentimental attachment. I want my country to be a nice place the way I want my home to be a nice place. I want to feel the pride of both. If my kitchen stinks because of spoiled food and piles of dirty dishes I don't feel right. Same when my country stinks of poverty, homelessness, sick people who can't afford cures, etc. I want my home to be better than that. Recognizing faults doesn't mean someone doesn't love their country. it means they're honest.
Well said

Maybe she can instead stay in the new complexes for migrants. And wonder if deportation is actually the plan when the trains arrive because maybe her education included gas chambers.
Did he basically substitute his Columbian girlfriend for the situation Mush was in?
That's far too subtle even for people with fully functional brains. No way Internet commenters are going to let go of their holy rage long enough to entertain that interpretation.
LOL! Get fukt.
"absolutely mute" 😆
The opposite of when you mispronounce a word because you’ve only read it in books.
These dummies don’t read and heard this word wrong.

Yeah, like a mime’s opinion. It’s “mute.”
I wish these people were on mute once in a while.

"She loves this country more than 3/4 of the folks on the left"
I'd like to see what data they were referencing for this claim.
Oh, that's simple. There's a doctor with a rubber glove and a flashlight that helps them get their data.
I hate this country. Mostly because of Trumpers, but I've got spare reserves for, you know, history.
The left hates the evil this country does. The right hates the people who live in this country but are slightly different than they are.
