John Edwards, the politician from NC that ran for President a few cycles ago, had a well developed pitch about ‘Two Americas’. His line of propaganda divided the nation between the have’s and the have-nots. His little speel worked well until he got caught hanging pipe with his photographer and taking 300 dollar haircuts on the airport tarmac.
I’d like to suggest that. while Edwards had it completely wrong about how he divided his ‘Two Americas’, there is indeed two separate realities in this country. Nolte over at Breitbart did an excellent job of piecing together the various data points that well demonstrates our two nations paradigm. First, here is the reality (as shown on Breitbart) that most of the people in our country experience:
It sure must suck to be a sane citizen in a democratic stronghold. A typical urban world looks like:
My rural world looks like (courtesy Nolte’s article):
Nolte has put together a damn good (and lengthy) compare/contrast on the two realities that are America. Link is here and a snippet of his lead in is below:
If I had to boil down the political wisdom I’ve learned over four decades of observing, studying, writing, and debating, it would be this…
Life in Rural America (which is where Republican Trump voters live and govern), is clean, safe and racially tolerant. Most places in America where life is dirty, polluted, dangerous, violent, and plagued with racial hate and race riots, are cities that are almost exclusively populated by and governed by Democrats.
Outside of these Democrat-run cities, America is peaceful, safe, clean, and racially tolerant.
What’s more, if you remove these Democrat-run cities from our national statistics, you will find an America that is overwhelmingly peaceful, safe, clean, and racially tolerant.
Nevertheless, Democrats and their fake-media allies still blame Republicans for all of their problems.
According to them, it is Republicans who are responsible for racism, pollution, and gun violence — even though, out here where we all live, our air, water, and streets are safe and clean… We all own guns, but where we live there is no gun violence crisis… We are all supposed to be racists and responsible for all the hate crimes, but out here where we all live, there is no hate crime crisis.
Now, there will be exceptions, but those exceptions only serve to prove the rule. Let me lay this out for you…
It’s a good read and chock full of data and reference points. But you know that no matter how much truth and proof you throw at the lunatics in their inner city hell, they are just to fuckin stupid to understand. Their lot in life not mine.
