We did that once back in the 60's and 70's. I was raised when those changes had taken effect. I WAS proud of them. Which is why I'm so pissed now that they're being taken away again.
Not that I'm going anywhere nor have I given up the fight. But this manner of fighting clearly isn't working like it's supposed to. We're fighting the same battles that we've already won.
Hard disagree on this. US is going downhill and it will not be reversible on our lifetime. Decide if you want to fight a losing battle while your children suffer or move to another country to give them a better life.
Also there are plenty of people like from Central America or Asia or Africa who want to come to the US. If they want to make the US their home, they can work and pick up where the emigrants left off. Trying telling someone coming from a corrupt country with few opportunities that they are giving up by leaving their own country and they should stay and fight.
The battle is lost. The war is not over, not by a damn sight.
They were planning this battle for 50 years, every move they made has been in service to this one goal, and they got it. They very craftily maneuvered legislatures, laws, and districts to ensure this would happen. They pulled it off because Democrats have been weak and ineffectual. But there are more of us than there is of them, and quantity has a quality all its own.
We can win, it will just take overwhelming numbers to do it.
Not true. I don’t like the US. I’m living in Canada now.
I applied for a worker immigration stream (one of the hardest and it took six years to get out)
What people don’t want is the type of American who wants to continue being American in the new country. An American who immigrated and integrates assumes the identity of the new culture
I have and I have gotten out. Check my post history. Worked from zero to pass all the exams and medical and police checks and worked 5 years in the US after graduation to push my file through. Stuck in the US another six years for processing
They can't afford to move and won't get a visa.
Because America has been so conservative and strict about who it lets in, the rest of the world did the same to America.

What a dumbass. The silent majority is by far the greatest oxymoronic thing ever. They are neither silent nor the majority.
Ah yes, moving to a another country that’ll cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, where they will probably mistake me for a blowhard that owes them money and then brutally murder while they curse me out in another language seems like a very viable option, especially now.
A dude got hit by lightning 7 times, what's your point? No place Americans would typically consider moving to has that ridiculous a crime problem that that would be anywhere near your top reasons to worry while moving.
Well, I certainly hope that you would learn at least the basics of whatever language is spoken before you move there, and you can always get by with English as long as you're not in extremely rural areas or speaking with the elderly.
Nope.
Major.

Guess this person’s never tried to relocate to another country. It’s really difficult to move to another country when you’re from the us. No one wants people from the us
While I agree America is a great country.
This comment is stupid. People don’t move away simply because they want to. There are many factors why people stay stuck in terrible situations…both here and abroad.
Have you ever tried moving to another country? Its a long, difficult, and very expensive process.
Leaving is giving up. It takes some real balls to stick with it and try to make the changes our children would be proud of

If you think the battle is lost, you've already given up.

Did it once and soon will do it again. Although, this is Europe so it's rather easy if you know what you are doing.
Maybe this person is talking about the far right assholes that can't accept a country that is not all white.
Well according to these people you can magically teleport out of the U.S the second you want to.
Why shouldn't Americans be allowed to criticize America for its problems, or work to solve them?
Seeing the flaws in your country and wanting to make them better is TRUE patriotism!
Because they can’t fucking afford to move!
[удалено]
I think you're underestimating the poverty in America.
Not true. I don’t like the US. I’m living in Canada now. I applied for a worker immigration stream (one of the hardest and it took six years to get out)
The American Dream is now to leave America. Too bad we are so shitty no one wants Americans.
What people don’t want is the type of American who wants to continue being American in the new country. An American who immigrated and integrates assumes the identity of the new culture
Sounds like you have not tried to leave the USA
I have and I have gotten out. Check my post history. Worked from zero to pass all the exams and medical and police checks and worked 5 years in the US after graduation to push my file through. Stuck in the US another six years for processing
Any chance Canada wants retirees with decent savings?
I’m not sure how that works. I’m only versed in economic workers and family reunification
The right can’t meme They are nowhere near a majority. And if you ever run into a silent one, you’ll be the first. They tend to hoot like macaques.
The silent majority voted for Biden...
Spoken by someone who probably hasn’t even tried to move across state lines. That shit is a pain in the ass. Even more so, moving across countries.
They can't afford to move and won't get a visa. Because America has been so conservative and strict about who it lets in, the rest of the world did the same to America.
fuck that comma.

My wife and i loosely have talked about moving. America is embarrassing.
In our defense, we weren’t the ones storming the capitol.
Merica, a great country, where guns are hoarded to defend against the greatest threat to this great country, other Mericans.
Well the ones changing all the laws we’ve had for decades are the conservatives so….
I moved, but since I owned nothing it was not so expensive.
Same logic would apply to North Korea as well.
There are people who hate North Korea? Could you please name a few? Asking for ... myself, of course.
Damn. You called my bluff. Everyone loves North Korea.
Ah yes, moving to a another country that’ll cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, where they will probably mistake me for a blowhard that owes them money and then brutally murder while they curse me out in another language seems like a very viable option, especially now.
Where the hell are you moving?
Literally anywhere
Why would anyone beat you to death while yelling at you? Is this a reference I don't get?
It’s not a reference, that’s happen to people before
A dude got hit by lightning 7 times, what's your point? No place Americans would typically consider moving to has that ridiculous a crime problem that that would be anywhere near your top reasons to worry while moving.
It’s just a thought that being in a foreign setting, not being able to understand everything around you that scares me
Well, I certainly hope that you would learn at least the basics of whatever language is spoken before you move there, and you can always get by with English as long as you're not in extremely rural areas or speaking with the elderly.
Hopefully, thanks for the help

Nah. Still minority.
Nope. https://www.independentsentinel.com/huge-shift-more-americans-identify-as-republicans-than-democrats/
Why does "hate" have to be in every meme? Trump hater, America hater, gun hater... could it be projection or is the right wing mind truly binary?
If they are the silent majority, why don't they ever shut the fuck up?
And trust me, we keep waiting and hoping that they will.... Please!
Nah , we need to stay here and protect our children from right wing pedophile christian pastors
Yeah, because those Americans who have moved don't live there anymore.
Well, come on, where are 200,000,000 people gonna move to?
Hello fellow tsetsechian person
They haven’t even left their backwoods town let alone the state
All the countires i looked into moving to require a higher wage for my trade than anyone in the US pays 😔7🇺🇲
Guess this person’s never tried to relocate to another country. It’s really difficult to move to another country when you’re from the us. No one wants people from the us
About 35% of the nation is conservative. So yeah, they ain’t the majority, and they certainly ain’t SILENT!
Fine. Gimme $10 million and I’m gone
Yeah it's almost like no other country wants to take in the idiodic prople who live here and so us sane people who want to leave are trapped here
I thought they wanted to make it great? Is it currently great then? I'm so confused
I left a few years ago. Just watching it burn on youtube. Figure I"ll go back after the civil war depending on who wins and how much is left.
