Since the announcement that the Gestapo now will demand access to your social media history for the last five years when you visit this country, there have been a flood of internet comments indicating that hell will freeze over before some people even think of visiting. My only objection to that is that calling them Gestapo is incorrect. They are by no means Geheime Staatspolizei, but zur schau stellende staatspolizei.
Nothing geheim about it. No shame at all.
That being said, as an American, I do not want to visit this country either. Outside of the city of San Francisco the food is awful, the culture primitive and incredibly vulgar, literacy levels near rock bottom, with bigots and racists everywhere. These are the people who elected Trump and the Republican super majority. It's a shithole.
Southern sherriffs, Iowa food, Idaho Christianity, and incestuous relationships (all of which involve grease) for two thousand six hundred and eighty eight miles of wasteland between the Sierras and New York.
After all, if Abbot, DeSantis, Greene Johnson, Tubberville, and Trump, were the best that could be elected, that speaks volumes about the people in their parts of the country.
Drug dealers, killers, and rapists. Oh, and some good people, I suppose.
But mostly criminals and low-lifes.
Years ago a friend living in the Shomron told me that it was unfair to judge the entire country without having visited and seen the real America. And you know what? He's wrong. Dead wrong. I can see them on my computer. They are the Fox News moron brigade. The Western Journal, the Daily Caller, The New York Post, and Turning Point USA. They are Erika Kirk theatrically weeping into a miraculously dry tissue while squeezing money out of turnip heads, teevee preachers casting out daemons and speaking in tongues, and political demagogues calling upon Jesus and spouting cynical drivel.
Either we are in fact a Christian nation and Christianity really, really sucks, or we're a bunch of snake worshipping heathens and actually rather detestable.
