    Dear Americans, … please: sort your shit out.

    You do understand that most of us want to right? We’ve been stuck in a system that favors the sociopathic Republicans and prevents almost every good thing from happening.

    A majority of people actually aren’t morons (politically anyhow) here. This isn’t a real democracy.

      I know not all Americans are morons, but too many are too complacent. A few extremely wealthy men have bought the political system and are pitting decent and democratically inclined people against a large group of purposely uneducated downtrodden people. The first group is complacent and more concerned with decency and their own standard of living, than they are in fixing the country, and the second group is seeking out ways to piss off the first group, while feigning indignation when they’re called out for it.

      When I suggest revolution and eating the rich, I’m only partly kidding. Don’t eat them, feed them to pigs instead. But you seem to think that I’m trying to be funny, I mean why else omit my suggestions? I’m not kidding. You need to declaw some rich people, so you can get rid of that awful electoral system and impose term limits for all higher public offices. And if declawing the rich ends up with a few rich white men dieing, then that’s a small price to pay. The actions of the same men kills Americans all the time.

      But I know that it’s not time to invest in the pitchfork and torch industries, because too large a group of people are too complacent to actually risk anything.
