    I really dislike this dumbass meme and it just gets worse the longer it’s been around. Letting rednecks have guns creates a lot of our problems. Letting Christians be Christians creates a lot of our problems. America is about freedom? Tell that to Black people. Tell that to immigrants. Shit, tell that to people who aren’t immigrants but who are having their citizenship challenged because they’re the wrong shade. Tell that to women and trans people who need healthcare. America is about freedom for some and not for others, and this meme is for the some.

      I think the meme’s not so much about how it actually is in reality, but more like how we think it should be like/if it was the “ideal” situation. That’s at least how I interpreted it.

      Rednecks hanging black people from trees is as American as apple pie! Every one ought to have a little bit of freedom (may vary according to location).
