patriotism
I think american patriotism is really stupid.
Really there are virtually no areas in which we excel, but we try to convince ourself we do, we are really arrogant and piss off the rest of the world, our economy will most likely be overtaken by india and china soon... Many democratic countries have much more freedom than us... We spend ridiculous amounts on the militairy and ignore international opinion...
And other than north korea we are on of the most paranoid nations on earth.
is this normal?
And the millions of iraqis youve executed in the past 10 years.
And the wonderful taliban regime you supported to power in 1980.
And your world record for having suppported more dictators to power than any other nation in history.
And your lack of hypocrisy.
And your wonderful propaganda machine.
If i were american, id be so proud.
Elvis is dead.
The moon landing was real.
Root for the poor put upon iraqis, most of which cheered when 9/11 happened to us, then went right back to having sex with livestock.
If a few rotten million have to be sacrificed in order to preserve the greater good, then so be it.
And what did the United States ever do for you? As you sit in front of your American made computer. Let's tally it up then, shall we?
