This generation needs better martyrs.

As for waking up the community to do something? Which community? Certainly not this one. This community goes out of their way to elect their own oppressors and justifies the vilifying all those who on the other side prior to any election. Yet they have the gall to turn around and claim they are oppressed? Look, when you willingly, nigh joyfully, watch as they take over your healthcare you cannot then truly expect privacy can you? You cannot suddenly expect that they really care about you do you? Your just one wrong protest away from being in jail.

Hence the term slacktivist, which applies to most of those cheering Aaron on. Never walked a protest line in their life, but ooh they may have downloaded a song they didn't pay for.



Yep, clearly, the dumb Americans deserve everything that comes to them. Thank you for sharing your bold insights.


"when you willingly, nigh joyfully, watch as they take over your healthcare you cannot then truly expect privacy can you?"

I have no idea what you mean by this. Could you elaborate?
