Yesterday there was a 200+ person fist fight in LA as a result of a school board meeting about whether to teach kids about LGBTQ. I've come full circle from "Brits are just prejudice about the US, it's not that bad" to "nope, it's exactly as stupid as previously thought"

Biggest culture shock was realizing how brainwashed the people who say the US is the freest country on earth actually are. It feels closer to a fascist police state than to a free and open democracy. Cops don't know the laws and just arrest/shoot people based on vibes. The "democracy" is really just minority rule that delegates most of the power bunch of Christian nationalists with brain worms. And if you're not born into decent wealth, you're basically fucked for life. Like, it's not even more free than the UK, and that's a low bar.

@jlcrawf @malwaretech So that's the kind of freedom everyone's talking about.

@jlcrawf @malwaretech Your post suggests you are ideologically compatible with said prosthetics, so I submit it’s only a matter of time.

@chetman @malwaretech Well, I stand by what I said. Someone moves here from another country and decide that they don't like it here, there is nothing forcing them to stay. Move on to one of those other countries that you admire so much.
