Remember the poem that is written on the Statue of Liberty (pictured in this gaudy trumpcard):

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

That would be paleontology, not archaeology

I don’t blame you. I grew up here thinking that most people were generally good/decent people. I was propagandized to hell and back and grew up believing that America was as good as it got in the world. Other places (like Canada) weren’t bad, but just but as great as America.

It wasn’t until I left my cult-like religion (Mormonism) at age 18 that I truly started learning more accurate history and exploring other cultures that I realized how deep in the hole I was as a human. I spent 20 years thinking that America was imperfect but had the potential to be better, and to come to terms with it’s thorny past. Obama being elected seemed to prove that potential.

Trump (then Trump 2.0) had destroyed that last illusion and I’m not sure what it would take to rebuild any sense of pride in my country. My entire extended family (as far as I’m aware of) are all in support of what is happening here, and it is stressing any vestige of relationship I had left after leaving their religion all those years ago.

Trust takes years to build, and a moment to lose. America has lost any trust in this moment. It’ll take a lifetime to rebuild at best. My son is in for a harder life because of it and I can’t help feeling guilty

I’m an American, and it’s going to take me a lifetime to look at America as anything resembling intelligence.

I prefer to call it: The Beige Years: because a lot of things were beige.
