What a refreshing read that was.

So, here's the thing only a little of my post history will tell ya. I'm gun owner, a hunter and fisherman. Give me an El Camino over a Prius any day. I have myself a Red Healer and a Neapolitan mastiff. (A duck catcher and a "I eat people" dog) And when Fall comes the entire row of this dirt road I live on Brings in their sights for hunting season. You wake up to "Pop!, Pop!, Pop!," and a cup of coffee and ya get excited for Turkey.

If I didn't open my big mouth on healthcare, or scream at Jeanine Pirro to leave the damn Mexicans alone you'd have no Idea the side of the Isle I stood on. (hell, Jeanine Pirro needs to leave everybody alone. That woman has more vitriol in her Pinky than I have in my whole body)

I see these big networks pumping out Propaganda on Both Sides. Buzz words and bright headlines and Stern people Smirking and jabbing at "journalists'' on the other side of the isle and Click bait snippets I cant even click yet cause we gotta go to see what is happening in Yemen.

That must be a happenin' city, because we are always breaking to see what is in going on in Yemen. Would it be outlandish for all of us to get out in the streets and BEG for the Fairness Doctrine back?

I see a pill in Australia costs 8 dollars. I see that same pill costs over 8k here. And Libertarians will tell you that is okay. Seems perfectly alright to some that business can have their hand elbow deep up the colon of our government, but government needs to keep its hands off business. Does that seem right to you? Citizens United has GOT to go.

Man, these are both issues that - in a year would undo a great deal of damage for this country. I dont care what side of the isle you stand on, this is bipartisan stuff I think we can all agree on. And I bet we would - but all of us are polarized.

They say:

You are "supporting a race hater and a man who acts awfully, suspiciously friendly to Putin, and verbally likes to make sweet, sweet love to Kim jong Un, and puts kids in cages without toothbrushes"

And about us:

We "just want to let any damn rapist into this country and support tearing down capitalism and want all the Jewz (kicks cat) and Mooselams to overrun Washington and have all the Gays walkin naked in Wal-mart!!"

And then here we are. Shit-posting away at each other like the guy on the other end isn't an American.

Yea, I see it. And I am aware I can be part of the problem - but give me a chance to explain: I see the Echo-Chamber T_D is at Reddit and its just - Dude that sub reads like a horror novel to me. It's like mad max over there to somebody like me who thinks Bernie has some damn good Ideas.

So you betcha, I came over here with my dukes up, Coffee in my veins and Drooling to fight a little - Cause Reddits T_D will ban you for not marching to that alt-right drum and I wanted to finally "Tell y'all Sumthin" And I Never - Never thought it would get this far. I thought I be banned and kicked from this sub faster than I got here.

I sure as hell never expected to have a conversation.

Then again - that's the whole reason for a Two Party only system, huh?
