The MAGA revolution threatens Boston, America's most innovative place

The MAGA revolution, if it continues, will force the US into a place that the USSR was in before it fell. Plus people here will get to experience an economy far worse than 1930 US.

It seems like America walked the talk of something that was never true. The battle between middle/rural America and east coast elites was never true, it was always a false narrative that created the politically necessary bisection. Why would rural/middle America be so much at odds with east coasters? It never made sense, and only made sense in the context of red vs blue (I mean literally, red vs blue paintball teams). You needed to create two teams to even play the game. It doesn't make sense to take this narrative seriously and hopefully everyone is realizing that. That would be like east coasters being annoyed that middle America often fills the ranks of our military, it's just a stupid concept through and through.

We have a President that now has his shallow identity tied to the notion of "Promises made, promises kept", which means he's really taking red vs blue paintball teams quite seriously. It is literally paintball, we visit each others states and go to each other's universities.

That pattern matches every conflict ever. There has been no good reason for humans to be fighting each other at any point in history; there was always a better way involving cooperation and tolerance. That hasn't stopped serious bloodshed so far. Humans team up and fight each other. It is what they do. Overwhelming evidence to date.

In the case of a rural-coastal tension in the US it is pretty well founded. They have observably different cultures and there doesn't seem to be a lot of tolerance for letting different states act independently which is the easy option to keep most people happy.

>Why would rural America be so much at odds with east coasters? It never made sense, and only made sense in the context of red vs blue (I mean literally, red vs blue paintball teams).

"rural vs. urban" is a proxy for "religion vs secularism" which itself is a proxy for "white supremacy versus multiculturalism." There's even a bit of old fashioned antisemitism intersecting with the evocation of "New York liberals" and "cultural Marxists."

If you think it's literally nothing more than "paintball" you don't understand American culture at all. You're confusing the tone for the message.
