I've was reading something in the past that must admit that I've forgotten from where but the assessment was that political parties themselves are just a front so the idiotic public can argue and remain separate while they are to busy to see themselves getting ripped off and I generally agreed with it as it seems to match this countries state today. Now I know what you mean with the whole worship of the empire so well as I had an uncle who was born in the 1940s who went apeshit when I proved to him that America just lies to him and that there are better and superior countries. Only one in my family who isn't a christian or half christian is my stepdad who was raised in the ghetto and he got no favors from the magic man in the sky or the government when the corrupt cops f***ed him and his family over.FreeYourMind wrote:Not a dime's worth of difference between the two parties. That's what George Wallace said in the 1960s and it's just as true today. But Americans are too dense and so easily fooled. Most have never even visited any other countries yet will emphatically tell anyone that the USA is the greatest country in the world and anyone who disagrees is a communist. How do they know? Because their "Judeo-Christian" preacher tells them so, and so does Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. At a time when consciousness is rising around the world, most Americans would easily fit into the mentality of the 1930s and '40s. And that of the 1830s for that matter.
E_Irizarry: I'll try but I must admit this already feels like a second home to me.
