We should celebrate 250 years as a great nation. A nation of hope, progress, and a nation that was built on the principle that the people rule!

Check out Saudi Arabia or some of the West African countries, they have the worst humans rights récords.

I’m not talking about Saudi Arabia or any part of Africa, I’m talking about our recent progress. America peaked in 1995 and we should seek to reverse most of the changes since then

Or maybe we could just acknowledge these facts and do our best to end homelessness, poverty, and ensure legal and social protections for underprivileged communities. Expecting your average citizen to put themself in poverty while doing nothing to punish those actually in power proves you don’t care about those issues

What are you saying? We should revert to stealing land and reintroduce forced labor if we’re going backwards now?

I’m saying maybe we shouldn’t celebrate a country that was built on racism, sexism and abuse, and legally protects criminals and child predators
