“A Normal Day In America”: Uncomfortably Funny Pics And Memes About Living In The United States
There's not a single country that doesn't have problems. But being the leader of the Western world, the United States of America is held to a high standard and its issues are often viewed through a magnifying glass, both internally and internationally. And the subreddit 'A Normal Day In America' is trying to bring some humor to these discussions.
Created in 2014, it now has 33.1k members, and according to the community's 'About' section, it focuses on things like toddlers in tiaras, guns in supermarkets, $100k hospital bills, obese babies, and other "everyday occurrences" in the US.

Most of these are “A Normal Day in the America Republicans want and MAGAts Vote For Against Their Own Best Interests”.
I think that would be a much better title for this article. Most of the Americans I have met have been fighting for change and are absolutely appalled and sickened by the harmful alt-right politics and hyper-conservatism that seeks to hurt minority groups and roll-back people's rights.
Load More Replies...As someone born and raised in the USA, this makes my heart hurt. We could be and do SO MUCH better if we'd just be willing to admit that: 1. Some of our systems are broken 2. Some of our systems were designed to elevate some and oppress others 3. Maybe a bunch of guys from 250 years ago who believed that it was ok to own people and would be mystified by a light switch MIGHT not have had all the answers for how things should be operating in 2023 4. Capitalism isn't the answer for everything 5. Any group's religious beliefs should NOT be the basis for laws and policies 6. Voters should be able to pick their elected officials. Elected officials should not be able to pick their voters. (End Gerrymandering) 7. Money isn't speech and corporations aren't people. 8. Loving your country means admitting its faults, working to correct them, and making it live up to its ideals; not just waving a flag or standing when a song is played.
I think this is the best comment on this thread and you could not have said it any better.
