Ah, the old “love it or leave it” shit. You’d have been right at home waving a crowbar during the Hard Hat Riots during the Vietnam War. This is exactly the kind of attitude that makes Americans a laughingstock of the wider world.

Have you ever thought that anyone who “bashes” the US on any sort of public forum IS making a difference? Maybe a small one, but having one’s opinions read by any sort of audience is already making a difference.

I admit that I’d never be able to run for office. Far too rageful, outspoken, and unwilling to compromise.
