Non-American here. You all keep making up the vilest "jokes" about French people. The sheer level of ignorance and disrespect deserves nothing but contempt and derision. And that's what you'll get from me and most of Europe.

Better learn to cope ๐Ÿ˜’.

I consider myself an Oregonian first and American second. Most of the country I can absolutely do without.

Oregon though...

I hate it despite realizing what a good life I have because I was born here with a lucky set of circumstances (cis white male). But I love parts of it, like the Bay Area and Oakland and all the surrounding hiking spots. If we didnโ€™t share it with lunatics Iโ€™d feel a lot better about it from a policy perspective.

Best part of Gondwana

No, but I like it more than China and Russia.

America is addicted to money however, and has a warped idea that working hard is somehow what life is about. But it's still not close to fascism and there is some accountability still.

Idk the Republicans seem to really want fascism.
