Too many people on the right pretend there is no problem out of fear that it lowers the meaning of their own accomplishments

would also LOVE to hear these idiots define “backwards”
Im backwards if you consider social norms of the day. I don't give a shite about materialism, can't stand pop culture and processed people, love the outdoors and have some free spirit in me, don't care about race (yes all races matter) hate overbearing government, generally think people are awesome yet misguided and brainwashed.

So Trump can call places a shithole and it's accepted because it's "true", but when someone calls half of America backwards it's a not the same?
Is half of America backwards or not?
This is the mindset the OP was talking about.
You'll defend shithole countries, but shite on your fellow Americans.

Any issue of inequality. Best example is the incarceration rates for marijuana for minorities vs white folks. Same crime. Different statistical outcome.

If half of America is conservative then they are not progressive.
Conservatives tend to want to keep things the way they are. The past election represented a lot of conservatives that wanted to turn back the clock and "MAGA".
That would classify as moving backward. IMO

There you have it folks. People who don't think like me are backwards.
What a backwards way to think.

The same can be said about the backwards comment.

That’s your logic.
Not mine.
It explains why you and others like you think as they do.

You're such a frickin simpleton

I think one of the funnier things to me is that the very same coasties who talk about how tolerant we need to be of other cultures is that they fail to recognized that the United States isn't one homogeneous culture.
The stupid fricks can, with a straight face, get pissed when you talk bad about mid-east Islam and then, barely a paragraph later, talk about how shitty American Christians are and their need to be vanquished.
We need to be understanding of people who won't let women drive.......but that dude that talks too much about the Bible? Shut that fricker up!!!
And it goes beyond religion. They're the same on basically every issue re: folks in flyover country.
They talk about people in Kansas and Oklahoma worse than they talk about run of the mill Iranians.

You act like they are a foreign species, dude. Great, you had lunch with some of them once.....most people interact with repubs and dems everyday of their lives, most people have family that are both dem and gop.
Saying " I broke break with a trump guy once" is like saying "I have a black friend"
Don't take this the wrong way, because you couldn't help it, but politically speaking, you probably are a lot more politically sheltered than the average person.
You grew up in a heavily black precinct, you went to k-12 school with 80% of people who are racially similar to you, and therefore politically similar. You have zero close family members who are anything but hardcore dems, so you never got to see the other side of issues growing up, and ended up getting it ingrained in your mind that the other side is evil, stupid, wrong, etc, without actually hearing anything from that side.

I fully acknowledge this.
So much for your theory about thinking a problem doesn't exist.
Disagreement with your solutions =/= a lack of awareness of a problem(actually, we probably agree re: MJ)

I'm just using the simple logic of if you're not moving forward then you are either staying in the same place or moving backward.
I understand it's not that simple but by definition that's what it means.

Sometimes, turning back the clock is the right thing to do.

People on the left consider disagreement with their solutions to equal thinking there's no problem.
