For a country that was literally founded by a revolution, y'all really seem to be tiptoeing around that concept.

We'll probably see mass secession, and reformation into a number of smaller nations, rather than an armed revolution.

The result of many decades of anti-Communist brainwashing. It's telling that stuff that's considered basic quality of living in Europe like government-provided affordable healthcare is considered "socialism" in the US.

Anti communist brainwashing? Are the schools, universities, and media in the States not liberal enough for your tastes?

Are these the same schools that not even a decade ago were humoring intelligent design and climate change denial?

Not sure what schools you're referring to but that wasn't a thing when I was in school 15 years ago..

Forcing kids to say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning isn't very liberal though.

I didn't have to say the pledge or stand for it although there was social pressure, most students would.

US liberal is far the to the right of the majority of Western Europe.

I'm European, so can't comment on your schools - but I can definitely comment on what I'm reading on every single thread no matter if here on HN, or Reddit, or Twitter, or Facebook... and that is people crying "socialism" for everything.

Liberals are center left at best, and that's people like AOC and Bernie Sanders.

The overton window in the USA has shifted so far right it's almost falling off the house.

I am trying to get people to come to that realisation themselves, that way they're more open to it.
