Oh man, I nearly died laughing reading that one. You should be a comedian. Or a senator. Is your last name Kennedy by chance? Tell others how to live their lives why don't you, you seem really good at that. And tell them how much they should be be taxed for 'enlightened' and 'progressive' social welfare programs. You're playing into the hands of the system by identifying and shaming people who want to be left alone by a government that was predominantly elected by those involved in the occupy wall street mob. Highly disingenuous on your part. Your side is the power, get it?
Struck a nerve, have I? You assume far too much about me. Self-identifying American liberals nauseate me about as much as self-identifying American libertarians. They are different peanuts on the same steaming turd.
By the way, I can't recall the number of "libertarians" around here who openly express disdain for democracy, so I don't see how I can be shaming them - they assert it proudly. Or maybe you didn't get the memo? "Democracy is two wolves and a hen" ... or some other such mindless trite motto.
I got news for you buckaroo, most Americans- and most people in general- don't give a shit about history. Stay out of other people's business, when the going gets tough some of us haven't forgotten
how to get down to business.
... ok ...
Even more hilarious is your implied threat of social darwinism to disenfranchise those people who hold politically incorrect views. Remind me to not turn my back on this one in a dark ally, your entire style reeks of the treachery of a good cause in the same tradition as Robespierre, Lenin, and FDR.
What I described is the brutal state of affairs which typically unfolds when power corners the population. It is not a threat of anything - it is what has happened over and over and over again. I wonder, do you even know what 'social darwinism' is?
