And yet I still get entangled in political arguments for their own sake. I believe the masses deserve their misery. My favorite (abbreviated)greatest hits list:

A literal majority of Americans believe an invisible Jewish Zombie suspended the laws of physics and created the world in about a week. This is with the internet(free education), public library's(free education), and so on.


1 on 7 Americans are on antidepressants. Yes: we live in the greatest age in human history(if lack of sectarian violence, increased technology etc mean anything to you). Really digest that: 1 in 7 people are so utterly miserable that they lent themselves to a doctor(whom they don't know)to prescribe a drug(which they don't understand) to allow them to wake up in the morning without wanting to end it all.

1 in 5 Americans believe Sun revolves around the Earth.

The majority enjoy calling those willing to kill people they've never met for a cause they don't understand "hero's" for a vague sense of community.


I enjoy watching it all crumble. I suggest you consider the same approach, here and elsewhere.

A personal favorite is gas-guzzling SUV's driven by women with "support the troops" decals.

Love it, love it, love it.

Since you don't seem to care about the US, maybe you'd be happier in another country.

Beautiful.

Your post won't be popular, but then again you're dealing with nationalist swine who comically believe that yellow ribbons, flag-waving and stupidity are a virtue.

Best

Nah, this place is better than most. The problem is the concept of a country; when people get together in teams, they start to really suck. The United States has progressed more in free speech arena's than many other countries, but the rate of oppression, degradation and mindless violence is par for the course.

It's a pretty awful place run by pretty awful people, but it's still better than most. The problem is that the intelligent, decent people don't have means to mobilize. The latter character value is something that generally doesn't play well with political mobilization.

Which is why I say people deserve their misery.

You're absolutely right... were going to the proverbial "hell in a handbasket".

It still shocks me that we still feel such blind pride for our country, even though the country we thought we were proud of is long gone.

Freedom of speech is an illusion.


Your IP could be "had." Indeed, we've already proven feds can and do snoop whenever they damn well please via the Patriot Act provisions.


This is not a free country.
