   Just in case you all are wondering what things are like here in DC, we have a house waving a Hillary FLAG with a Thank you to the Obamas on the side. Don't miss the subtle Pence Loves Penis sticker, there are hundreds of these goddamn things all over https://noagendasocial.com/media/wei2IYA3gQfeOj9twK4

      @Johnny_of_the_swamp why are you surprised. DC's always been like this. Here since 1988.

         @chris I feel like the cult of personality aspect has grown. I was here during the Bush years, and it seems like the tenor has changed. One of my favorite things is to walk around the 'hood and listen to podcasts (go figure) and it is just more in your face than ever.

            @Johnny_of_the_swamp the issue in DC has always been LGBTQ which is weird because DC has always been a safe haven, at least in Dupont. And the issue in DC has always been race. Racism. Poverty. Homelessness. Education. Diversity. White flight. 1968 riots. It's always been race but white DC has always flown the rainbow flag. It's complicated. Chocolate City and Federal DC are different worlds inhabiting the same map.

               @chris And we're slowly shoving Chocolate City out into Maryland. Years ago in this neighborhood, I heard gang shootings. Now all the Section 8 housing is torn down and replaced with condos for upper class folks. Gentrification is weird.

                  @Johnny_of_the_swamp I moved to 14 & A SE in 1998 and the redline was 14th Street. Lots of shooting. Now, all yuppies. Even into Anacostia, "over the river." Unheard of.
