I am coming to hate my country. This is not a Democrat thing or a Republican thing; they’re roughly the same. It’s just that we hate each other. We all know that we hate each other. Nobody hates Americans so much as Americans do.
It has become intolerable to live here. Everybody’s busy complaining about Trump right now, but the fact is that we long ago crossed the Rubicon; it’s got nothing to do with immigrants or race, really. You can be white and your neighbors can be white and you can be roughly the same class but you hate each other. You hate each other for existing, and you ultimately harass each other, whether directly or through voting or through rumors.
It’s not pleasant to live here. There’s no community. There’s no comity. There’s just hate. And it’s getting worse.
I’m as American as they come. And I’ve traveled internationally. I have no illusions that I will ever be anything other than an American.
But boy do I hate Americans. And they hate me.
We all hate each other.
Rest of the world, don’t be offended. However much you think we hate you, I can assure you that we hate each other more.
