We grew up with chores and expectations, callused hands before 3rd grade. Manners were a must, and dinner was at 1730 every night....and you had better be there, or you went without. Church on Sunday, pot roast for Sunday dinner. Life was simple, hard, rewarding, and good. Basic rules...work hard, be respectful, don't be late for dinner, be home when the street lights came on, and thank your God and Country. We are American Men...God, Family, and Honor mean something to us.
We were known back then as the "heart of America", the farmers and ranchers, the "good ol country folks".....Middle America. Lemon aide stands, county fairs, and Fourth of July....that is what we lived for as children of the Fly Over States. As we got older and left home, many of us swore to give back to our country through military service and protect our freedoms that built our childhood memories. Some of us died, some of us lived...non of us regretted any second of it. We are American Men, regret is not a word we use much.
Families of our own, careers and businesses, kid raising, and life. Some got a little softer around the edges / waistline, but the spine is still forged in American blood and iron, rooted in the Constitution. However, we have listened to years of culture manipulation....fly over, rural America, preppers, tea party, deplorables, bible and gun clingers, right wing extremists, racist, Christian radicals, and now terrorist. WE are American Men, we killed terrorists on your behalf there Soy boy so you could stay safe in your college dorm and hug your trees....now you are starting to piss us off. We are gentle giants until you break the rules....work hard, be respectful, and thank your God and Country....and BTW....don't be late for dinner!
You have destroyed our streets with your riots, our elections with your fraud, and our education system with your 7000 made up identities, feelings, and revisionist history lessons. You have made all that was good in this country bad. This is the American Man's fault....we let you do it, we were asleep at the wheel. Take notice, we are awake now, and your days are numbered. You are a cancer on the soul of this great nation and you will be eradicated....mark my words, the American man is taking back control! WWG1WGA
That was beautiful and much-needed. It's easy to not notice change that has been gradual and persistent, but when you spell out the before and after like you just did it's gotta get people fired up and fed up. I miss the way things were in my childhood.
thank you...just had to vent a bit.
You're promoting a lifestyle of toxic whiteness-Sarc! I grew up in the 70's in Southern California and believe it or not, not too dissimilar to what you described. Dad, uncle, owned trucks and guns, worked carpentry, we left doors unlocked etc. I think some of it is cultural whiteness- but middle class latinos like to live this way too. Count me with those who think they've been using illegals and motor voter to steal the vote in LA and CA. Yes, Hispanics are more naturally socialist as people who come from poorer countries often are- but once here, they adapt to truck and military culture more so than even whites here in LA cause white males have been feminized through education. Still praying for revival here.
I know you are being sarcastic....but what I am promoting is toxic American! No "ism"...Just American. Done with the hyphens and "isms"....just plain old Americans would do just fine.
