you know I was thinking about it today and I think that America is a very sad place to live. theres tons of good things about it but... I think its sad some of the things the goes on. Its like the weirdest society because adults preach tolerance and government preaches tolerance and everyone pressures you to conform to everything. But youth culture

honestly, this entry is a big understatement on how much I hate america and some of it's people. the government doesn't teach you to conform to anything, it's the fact that the older people know that this is our country, this is the way things should be done, and they WILL be done like this. adults usually don't preach tolerance to me, i mean, they might to you. youth culture tells you to be a conformist, because everyone wants to be cool, everybody wants to be popular, and everybody wants to be a part of a specific crowd, you pick the crowd, and you want to be accepted. and as for the rights of gays, they don't have the same rights as us. they can't get married, when they are in love with each other, just like married couples are in love today, and they can't have one of the most wonderful things in life. and, usually, if you DO agree with everything the government says, in the world today, then you are prude, closed-minded, and stupid, because have you seen our government today?! we're spending 400 billion dollars on weapons for the war, and only like, 8 billion on schooling for the whole united states. it's incredible for me to look at how we learn in some of the worst ways possible, through books. we need a better form of learning, because, if it wasn't for some of the teachers, textbooks, and learning aids, then children wouldn't be in a grade more than once. the "troubled youth" today is definately the crowd that stands out the most, no matter where they go. and of course they're going to be stared at, and of course they're not going to be liked very much by other people, just because they're "different" - but everybody is "different" to everybody else in everybodys eyes, no matter who you are. we can't live in a world full of diversity and the diverse be accepted because of the super ficial people on earth, and we just have to live with that. it's just a fact of life. and, that's really all i have to say. the end. byebye.
