NJ offers free community college, they're working on universal preschool but it varies district to district (my district is about to move it to thee years old), NJ Transit trains are built in Germany, so that's something right? We are working on offshore wind farms but the Dutch company backed out (and to be fair the economy is a shit show and I get it and I won't point fingers). NJ is pretty much as progressive as it gets in the US, which is why I referred to it, tongue in cheek, as the Europe of America.
Some of the US is trying, and the amount of unjustified shit reddit, and now Lemmy, throw indiscriminately at the US is foolish. To suggest Mississippi and Vermont are the same is just not true, but that's the vibe I get when I scroll through "America Bad" after "America Bad" post.
There's no reason for people to be up on their high horse when we're all a decade away from collapse. Let's be friends and joke with one another. Sometimes all you got is jokes.
