It’s my opinion that every Russian ambassador, consul, and staffer thereof is most likely a spy of one variety or another, doing harm to their host countries. They seem incapable of good faith diplomatic relations.

Because a plurality of Americans are equally crass, ignorant, selfish, and evil.

That’s what any demographic shift does. Wealthy republicans carpetbag on occasion too, though not as often. The problems of red states can largely be overcome with personal wealth, so they tend to stay where they’re politically comfortable.

Another thing is that blue-staters tend to have more buying power than red-staters, so they get butthurt about being priced out of real estate instead of realizing that their relative poverty is the direct consequence of republican policy. 20 states still have a $7.25 minimum wage, guess which ones.

Vibes-based policy. Republicans hate when people from blue states move to red states, even if they are republicans. They think they bring the liberal stink with them and fuck things up for everyone else.

They’ll eat this up, regardless of how little sense it makes.

They know that there is no precedent for such violence against them specifically. But they are also extrapolating, correctly I think, that people will want to kill them for what they are planning to do, above even what they are currently doing.

Maybe they’ll encourage plunder like the good old days (the 1300s).
