USA != America
Don’t forget the millions of us chained to the bottom because we have no choice
As an American who just emigrated, I guess I jumped. I can still vote from overseas, but I’m pessimistic about the future.

That’s what the woke mob would have you believe! The water isn’t getting warmer at all! Believe me!
Water? Preposterous!
A giant pot of delicious soon-to-be stew, however… mighty tempting, doc! You’ll have to treat me right though, you wouldn’t want to get food poisoning from stringy meat would ya?
This would imply that they’re not surrounded by other pots filled with water which is (varying degrees of) boiling. We don’t really have a Socialist Utopia meeting spot, let’s say.
