Need to rant rant rant
I'm coming out of hiding right now because I really need to talk about this article right the fuck now.

I have never, ever, ever been more ashamed to be an American than I have reading those comments. I cannot even fathom the ignorance! Have we forgot about the fucking Inquisition??? The atom bombs, the Christian killers, the white men shooting up workplaces and schools??? What the hell is wrong with people, really?
There's only one way to describe this ignorance, and it's fucking racism. And it breaks breaks breaks my fucking heart, what a time in the world when we have all the means to get along and to better everything for all of us and these IGNORANT RACIST FUCKS have to RUIN EVERYTHING!!!
What can I do, what can I do?? World, we are not all this ignorant over here. Trust me, world, when I tell you that America has been stolen from the Americans as well. I am one of the mythical Americans who wants to better everything and help the world and create a space where everyone from all over the world can melt together in harmony. I am a myth because I was always taught this myth and I believed in it.
The myth is not America, I see. America is a racist, America is a sexist, America is a Christian fanatical extremist wanting to stuff everyone else into a tiny pipe hole and then shoot us into the center of the world where they will run their cars off the energy of our broiling anger.
Every day I come to terms with the fact that my depression is external. My depression is external, there is nothing inside of me to dissolve away in a pill except for my ability to think and care. I will not feel better until the world feels better, and I will never feel better until this bullshit fucking stops.
I'm so ashamed to be a white American with a Christian background. And for damn good reasons.
