The Unfortunate Condition of the Enlightened American

(Oh Goodness, someone got me in a rampage to talk socio-poltical!! These are all opinions based on personal experience and observation, so I hope I don't offend anyone. Actually, I'm usually very timid to speak about anything political because I'm a Republican, and everyone tells me I'm wrong because of that. Or because American is the best country ( Read more... )

People definitely need to be educated on their government/the world/and just political theory in general. I cannot even described to you how frustrating it is for me to explain to people who watch Glenn Beck that, in fact, the Nazi's were not socialists. Yeah I know they were referred to as the National Socialist Party, but they kinda sorta killed socialists. Like a lot of them. Their political philosophy was EXTREME right wing, which isn't to say that conservatives are "Nazi-like" but that's just what they were. In fact, can we just fucking do away with this whole comparing of American politicians/political groups to the Nazis? Because none of them even come close and it's insulting to the people who experienced what the Nazis actually did ( ... )

GOD YOU ARE SO MY BRO!!! I really am frightened of Glen Beck. He is far too...fanatic....I guess. Some of the things he says are just nuts. Nazis and Nazis and not anything but. I just meant that they promised alot of stuffs and then it was like "oh crap, they're killing EVERYONE!!!!!" which makes Germans and other European untrustworthy of their government. I realyl shouldn't of used them as an example....but I was kind of beating Greece to death. At least when I go to Rome I'll be able to amke more observations of the glory of Europe.
If you live in France, then I won't be too far away in Maranello!!!! And don't worry--once we get into any EU country, THE REST ARE OURS FOR THE TAKING!!!!
Yay for paying attention! We're enlighted Americans!!!! I am so going to beat Ricky to death. He can be so meeeeeeeaaaaan!!! This is just like when he and Sheena argued over how to be catholic!!!! :(

YES WE ARE MAJOR BROS! And dude, I totally didn't mean to imply that your discussion of Nazis in this journal was bad or anything, I meant people that are like "Obama is Hitler/George W. Bush is Hitler!" But I can see how it seemed like I was ranting at you so that's my bad! Sorry about that!

ffffff dude I want to make this France dream come true and then we can bro it up and eat baguettes and shit and it will be AMAZING. And don't worry about Ricky, I don't really find him mean so much as kinda stupid lol Arguing over how to be Catholic though omg what. I'm Catholic too and I just kinda do my own thing and occasionally be like "POPE BENEDICT WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING. STOP BEING ULTRA GERMAN AND SCARY." I'm sure he'd be super mad at my flavor of Catholicism.
