I see your point. But I don’t think anything in the quote suggests this is a left v. right dichotomy, though. To say America is of two minds inherently means they co-exist. It’s not the same as saying there are two Americas.

Honestly, it insults me even more because I’m female. I would’ve preferred a natural…

Don’t know what you’re eating, but my food doesn’t have artificial sweeteners beyond corn syrup.

I can’t see how losing relationships and spending a regimented and heavy amount of time on the exact same activity is rewarding. I’m sure it felt like a great accomplishment at the time, and perhaps it was, but I am unable to understand how it would be worth the investment and the loss.
