The only segment of the US population who are economically populist,
internationally anti-imperialist, and sexually conservative are
Blacks, Latinos, and Arabs/Muslims, with many of whom I am on very
good terms.  The rest of the US population who are sexually
conservative tend to be economically confused and internationally
imperialist, imho, and there is no evidence that they are interested
in having any relation with me, for the time being.  :->
