Wow thank you for that! Of course it's mostly republicans but it's sad to see any democrat on there getting Big Oil kickbacks

European Defaultism is inherently racist, and it's a constant problem on the internet with left-wing people who pretend not to be racist, but loathe people of color and the countries they come from, only ever referencing white European countries as some sort of fake "utopia" that doesn't really exist. It's one of the most common forms of racism on the internet

You do realize most black people live in the South right?

I wouldn't consider 1964 to be baby boomer territory, or at least it's at the very end of it. Baby Boomers are the hippy generation, they were the ones protesting Vietnam in the late 60's early 70's. By the time the Vietnam war ended they only would've been 10 years old. 90% of baby boomers are long gone from America at this point or have retired. Gen X is in charge now

because in Europe you are surrounded by people from other nationalities

Excuse me but what? Europe is hardly a diverse place.

"By Gören's measure, the world's most culturally diverse country is the African nation of Chad, which counts more than 100 ethnic groups among its 8.6 million residents. Chad is also Africa's fifth-largest country by area, spanning over 495,624 square miles, which has enabled Chad's ethnic groups to live and operate autonomously despite several attempts to unify them. Most of the 100 languages spoken in Chad are Nilo-Saharan and Afro-Asiatic in origin and do not overlap with ethnic group identities. Arabic, Sara, and French are common across the country, especially Arabic, an important commercial language.

African countries often rank highly in studies of cultural diversity thanks to their many tribal groups and languages. In fact, Canada is the only western country among the top 20 most diverse countries."

I wonder how may members of congress get kickbacks from big oil? Is there a list somewhere of that?

I've met plenty of people from Africa: Kenya, Ghana, Mozambique, Sudan, Ethiopia; who are great friends and colleagues to this day from my days at NASA JPL

Incredibly brilliant people live outside of Europe too

Baby Boomers are already dying off, most are in their 70's and retired now

I actually agree, there are many many things to hate America for, and I agree with them, and I will always vocally oppose those elements of this country and encourage others to do so, but, there's also some great things we've done as a country and a people that I very much am proud to have been a part of personally. I won't make pretense to the contrary simply because there are elements for which we ought to, and do, criticize

Yeah, and we all know the Salem Witch Trials were totally validated after all these centuries right?

Are you being serious?
