10. They've been telling us dirty, hippy freaks

to "love it or leave it" for decades. I say we start yelling it back to them. THEY'RE the ones completely changing the country from a democracy to an autocratic fascist government. Start telling them to love our country... our ethics and morals... or leave for Russia or Hungary or Somalia or Iran. Those countries are much more to their liking... although I almost left Hungary out of the statement since I think Orban is either out or on his way out.
