DowntownMrSmith 07/19/21 6:19:07 PM #1:	I'm an atheist, live in a big city in a blue state and have diverse friends, but we complain about PC culture all the time, we joke about how our favorite movies from the 90's and 2000's couldn't get made today and how nothing can be funny anymore. At the same time, I hate Republican culture and could never live in one of those boring, ugly small towns that voted for Trump. Economically, I do think Republicans are right on the issues but culturally, I can't stand them. <cite>DowntownMrSmith posted [p:956255738] in How would ...
