Evolution has obviously provided you with a superior mind by which to judge those hapless dolts who somehow cannot distinguish propaganda from fact.<br /><br />If those barbarians, as such, are responsible, why not remove them from the gene pool? That would seem the only logical way out. Reason and discussion certainly aren't going to get you anywhere.<br /><br />All this compassion and silly games certainly aren't going to remove that 77.3% of the population, those "internet users", that muddy up the water. Useless notions like "equality" and "empathy" aren't going to get the job done.<br /><br />Am I being sarcastic? Maybe. But you might want to come down from your ivory tower a bit. Dismissing people outright is a sweeping generalization at best, and ignorant at worst. They have reasons for why they act as they do, even if they aren't reasonable, or logical. Most of us think with our feelings; it's not like that isn't how the American Revolution came about, either.<br /><br />Unless you want a Platonic Republic, buck up and get used to it.Zacheryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15647158438578812228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972120889629675714.post-58940970506507042102010-11-25T13:37:18.173-05:002010-11-25T13:37:18.173-05:00I've got a friend who's a sports nut.

I used to be the same about politics, current events, "how generally shitastic everything is", or however you'd want to put it. <br /><br />Then, I <i>stopped</i>.<br /><br />Don't sweat the small stuff and don't get all bent out of shape over things you have absolutely no control over. The world's always been a pretty horrible place. Just make the best of it for yourself and those around you.Evilpaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375464975487637177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972120889629675714.post-13451437085369361912010-11-25T04:01:16.391-05:002010-11-25T04:01:16.391-05:00Look, I'm not a racist, but I have zero doubt ...Look, I'm not a racist, but I have zero doubt that the failed Obama administration orchestrated this post.

You probably haven't, because its hard as balls to find, but believe me, things used to be much, much worse than this. Typically though, it is usually only assholes that comment on these things. Either way, it is usually best not to read comments on articles on mainstream news sites.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972120889629675714.post-55951080653813548722010-11-24T02:34:02.617-05:002010-11-24T02:34:02.617-05:00I was actually just pondering this the other day. ...I was actually just pondering this the other day. I feel sheepish over how much time I spend reading comments sections as opposed to actual news articles. Sometimes I'll only read half an article and then skip right to the comments. An why? I'm never surprised by what I see. I know what's going to be there, but I'm severely curious which flavor of comments are going to get the most "likes". I'm trying to wean myself off them but it's like a freaking addiction. There's something about watching humans arguing rubbish that is just fascinating.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10016188508658731186noreply@blogger.com
