I already defeated a Tory MP by voting tactically for Remain, in 2017, which is why Canterbury is now one of the closest Labour/Conservative marginal constituencies.

Thank you for doing so!

WHY ARE PEOPLE SO STUPID.

Sadly in this case more malicious than stupid.

America has two economies, and they're diverging fast

I've seen this article, and while it seems to be a plea for understanding, but I honestly don't care because the answer for red America has been white supremacy and attempts at brutal autocracy. As a result, while I definitely want to see a solid safety net that will help them at least as much as people in blue America, I have no interest in their problems or in giving them specific help. At this point, I want to see their culture die and their children assimilate into blue America.
