Considering English is supposedly the mother tongue of Americans, it is surprising to me how poor Americans' comprehension of it is.
Too many people are projecting their own insecurities and personal trauma into what others are saying, twisting other people's words to fit their own narratives.
Avg SAT is 1029, SD 235.
Saying "I'm like you" with a SAT 960 score, adding "I'm no better", means that he is simply acknowledging self-awareness of being within the average.
He then speaks of his own struggle with dyslexia, a common learning disability.
Nothing racist with what he said.
Too many Americans are misogynistic, racist and homophobic.
Whike AOC would be my (as a Norwegian observer) favourite candidate for the US, both AOC and Buttigieg will ensure MAGA will win all the undecideds.
The electorate is too ignorant to vote for anything other than a straight white man.
Mike Rounds says Republicans just want to make you show your document with a yellow star in order to vote
There has rarely been anyone in the US who deserves the death penalty more than Trump, Noem, Bondi, Vance, Miller, all of ICE, and a vast majority of MAGA voters.
They should at the very least rot behind bars until the end of their lives, as insignificant cogs in the industrial slavery US prisons.
"If you criticize America and your president, you're a fake citizen", says all the MAGAts who spent the last few decades criticizing America and all Democrat presidents.
Saying chai tea is the same as saying MAGA Nazi.
You're just repeating the same word twice.
Anyone even remotely surprised or shocked at the racist video posted by Trump is either ignorant or part of the problem.
We're talking about a slave nation of 50 states engaged in systematic for-profit prisons operated by murderers who kill prisoners with impunity.
Watch "The Alabama Solution".
To be fair, one of the most American things consistent throughout the entire Republic's history is precisely how above the law certain individuals and classes of people are.
Murderers of Emmett Till (and countless other), Brock Turner, Nixon, Trump, etc.
"American Justice" is an oxymoron.
Yes, we all remember the Young Democrats chatlogs with jokes about installing the gas showe-.. oh wait, that was Young Republicans.
Looking in on America from the outside, one could almost be led to conclude that decades of militarizing the police, overfunding the armed forces, and underfunding education might not be such a wise choice after all.

I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com
Just waiting for Americans to realise that they're essentially left with two choices at this point:
1. Fight for what's right in what very well/most likely ends up being a civil war.
2. Get forcibly drafted under death threats to fight territorial conquest wars overseas on behalf of Trump & MAGA.
I was calling out Trump as an early 1930s Hitler clone at the very start of his 2016 term, but was constantly mocked for being an extremist alarmist, even by close friends who knew I read a lot of history books.
10 years later, much as I would've loved being wrong, I'm pissed off at how right I was
This guy, along with many others in both the administration and ICE/DHS/BP needs to be put in front of a firing squad sometime in the next few years.
Murderers, the lot of them.
This is what America has become.
Shame!
Guess the guns were always meant to shoot school kids with.
Dictators seem fine.
That the current MAGA administration is flagrantly breaking as many laws as possible on a regular basis no longer surprises me.
But I'm curious about what happens the next time Democrats are in power.
Will they follow the law and imprison 90%+ of current leadership for treason?
Curious to see.
There are 3 easy rules to keep in mind when dealing with & trying to understand Donald J. Trump:
1. Everything he says is a lie.
2. Every accusation he levies against others is an admission of his own guilt.
3. No matter how bad things are, trust his ability to make matters worse.
That's it.
#Europe is United behind #Greenland!
The United States are Divided amongst themselves.
If #America wants to take us down, take them down with us!
Dictators are never appeased by submission - only by fighting back will we have a chance of survival!
Not every German supported Hitler and the Nazi Party.
Not every American supports Trump & MAGA.
But every German was shunned, hated and vilified for years after WW2 ended & Hitler was gone.
This is the legacy all Americans are risking by proxy of Trump and his actions.
Take back your country!
While I know we would all take an economic beating from dumping US debt and equities (which I, as a Norwegian, own a fair amount of myself) as retribution in the event of an invasion of Greenland, I would still feel immense schadenfreude knowing the Americans have $39Tn of debt about to crush them.
I read this a couple of years back. For the most part, I really enjoyed it. Hope you do too! ๐
First thing Trump did after seeing this was to ask his stooges what 'integrity' means.
None of them could supply him with an answer.
This is very true, but another difference is that 1930 Germans were actually capable of reading books - unlike the vast majority of MAGA Nazis, who freak out at any text longer than 140 characters.
Unfortunately, great systemic injustice in the US only becomes a big enough problem to take seriously once white suburban families see it happen to someone similar to them.
For example, Ku-Klux Klan was mainstream accepted until its leader kidnapped, raped and killed a white girl in 1925 (Madge O.)
