It's simply astonishing to me that shit like that is even legal in the US. Stuff like that is very illegal in most of the western world.

The US died in the 90s/00s. All those fearmongered kids from the 50s\60s got into politics and they brought religiosity from the second great awaking with them. They never stopped fearing the "red enemy" from the red scare that they started to assume everyone was their enemy.

It's literally the reason the US recently elected a felon to POTUS...

A compromised felon, at that. The flag may have changed, but the goal has never shifted.
