If you go to them and say "Actually America is bad and you're bad for liking it," they're going to ignore you. If you say "America is a promise and is good & we have to fight to live up to it, let's punch Nazis like we did in WWII" then more of them will join you, which we need to stop the fascists

Dear the poly sci authors who wrote a book about health that maybe they have no expertise in:
1. Some of my friends died, so I don't need to read your stupid book.
2. I thank God every day that I didn't go to an ivy league school, and instead went to a college that taught me how to think for myself.
