The U.S. is more dangerously divided than any other wealthy democracy. Is there a way back from the brink? (Yascha Mounk)
Absolutely. Get rid of all Libertarians and Republicans. Sounds hastey, but good can't thrive while living among evil. If we were a fully democratic nation (left-wing across the board), where everyone was caring to each other, we help the homeless, fully fund public schools, and tie the hands of billionaires (Including lobbyists), then we'd be a much better-off nation than we are now. There's literally no need to be a conservative in today's world. They're backward-thinking, pro-corporation, anti-humanitarian, greedy as fuck, they vote down anything that actually HELPS the American people, and they get very hung up on stupid things that don't really matter or concern them. (Like drag queens reading stories to children, for example.)

1. The FBI and Twitter infringing on people's 1st Amendment rights.
2. The CIA and DOD running psyops on social media.
3. Silencing Harvard doctors and the most peer reviewed cardiologist by tech employees at the direction of the government.
4. Forcing people to take experimental jabs from Big Pharma paid for by taxpayers.
5. Forcing people to buy health insurance from private corporations.
6. Regurgitate whatever the tax exempt corporate media feeds you.
7. Supported corporations stay open and in business during Covid while small businesses were shut down forever.
How's that homeless problem in California going? Looks like it's getting worse.

We’re not going to have a kumbaya moment here, so I suggest that everyone puts down their pitchforks and bows out. Flaming in the section is strictly prohibited, and there won’t be another warning after this one - simmer down, boys and girls.
The largest passenger plane is the Airbus A380-800 and can hold a maximum 853 people. Only 242 were made before it was retired in 2021. It would take 86,753 separate flights. That is logistically impossible.
If this is a serious thought, you people need hobbies to occupy your time. Or jobs.
The Coexist crowd can't even live up to their own hype. They have to constantly censor, ban and "get rid" of opposing viewpoints and then gaslight everybody saying they aren't the authoritarians.

I can understand general dislike of right-wingers since they’re polar opposites - you can find some kind of reasonable-ish justification. That, and they’re not very likeable in general. The dislike of libertarians has always puzzled me since all they really want is to be left alone. I’m sure it has to do with them “not wanting to contribute to society”, or something along those lines. The funny thing is that the proposed solution (in jest, but still) is to take everyone who isn’t like-minded and “getting rid of them”. The joke writes itself.

True, but the difference is I couldn't possibly care less what they do or what happens to them after they get there. They get to pretend they're living in paradise, the rest of the US gets to make much faster progress without needing to cater to a bunch of voters who have the IQ of Chia pets. Win-win.

I will say that I find the American right-wing being enamoured with Russia/siding with Russia in the Ukraine conflict is a little bizarre to say the least, having the Red Scare from just a few decades prior in mind. I suppose it depends on what specific camp you ask. Some just don’t want the government to spend more on a conflict they feel doesn’t concern them, which is justifiable if they have other ideas on how that money/resources could be used domestically. Others actually believe Putin’s in the right and they buy the “anti-Nazism” mission spiel, which is plain stupidity of the highest order - that’s not why Putin wants his grubby hands on Ukraine. Either way, violence or forced relocation aren’t the answer, but the implications of the suggestion are still funny, in that funny-sad way (when nested in historical context).
