american nationalism is its own religion.

  • the constitution is comparable to the Bible. read as if it was written by God, and is oftentimes considered indisputable 
  • the flag is an idol in which people literally pledge their allegiance to
  • patriotic anthems = hymns
  • the military itself is a treated like a priest class; the “laypeople” are expected to display the utmost respect for their pure existence.
  • indoctrination of children
  • displays of patriotism determines how “faithful” the individual is
  • presence of nationalism at different events (such as sports games, festivals, schools etc…) eerily resembles a theocracy
  • when someone chooses not to partake in a patriotic ritual, they are considered a heretic

Concept: a Dungeons & Dragons coffee shop AU, but the class roles and general level of peril are unchanged, so you’re like battling giant killer shrubbery to harvest coffee beans and rescuing hapless patrons from the people-eating kobolds who live in the basement and such.

Trump is abusive and vengeful. Trump and his white nationalist staff tried to increase as much suffering in Puerto Rico as possible.

Trump views every situation from a personal, selfish viewpoint. In short, ‘how does helping Puerto Rico help Trump?’

The racism and disrespect for Puerto Rican citizens was a feature, not a flaw.
