the funniest thing is your serious

you go on about what your countrys done to others for why you should do nothing for it, do you really not understand what your country has done for you and the opportunities it gives you..? you have it easier then a larrrrge amount of people in the world and youre still acting like a spoilt kid

no, i'm doing my best to improve my country by actively involving myself in community. a spoiled kid would whine and do nothing. i actually see the injustice of this country and act upon it. the only reason so many bad things happen in 3rd world countries is 1st world country exploitation, therefore, it is America/most of Europe's fault that most countries in Africa are shitholes. that is an undeniable fact. so i guess i do things for my country. i am working to make my people, who i love, recognize that our government/corporatocracy is corrupt and has become very un-American to the point that the warnings Thomas Jefferson gave us are coming true and no one is smart enough to do anything because most Americans were educated by the shittiest education system in the world and never learned of these warnings. they taught us selectively, ripping chapters out of the real history books and giving them back to us only when they were thoroughly satisfied with what their version of history said. they tell us direct democracy will never work because things will never get done and people are too stupid to think for themselves. well they're the reason we're too stupid. so they trick us into believing the only way it will work is if we give up our right to make decisions except for once every 2 years when they give us a choice to pick one crooked candidate over another and/or one overstuffed, biased bill over another and leave the rest of the decision making to these crooked candidates. now that is not to say ALL politicians are crooked, but definitely a good majority. and when we need something we go to Africa or Asia or Latin America to get it, and if they refuse to give it to us we overthrow or execute their leader and put in place a new leader who will comply. seriously, fuck you to make the assumption that i am the whiny little American who has it so damn easy and complains because of little, irrelevant shit. yes, i realize while i sit here typing shit over my keyboard a child in India is dying of starvation, but to keep my blinders on to who is really behind that would be ignorance in it's purest form.

to say my country has done a lot for me by simply allowing me some of my basic human rights is absurd. my country has been less oppressive than 90% of the world to me, while it remains oppressive over that 90%, making sure no other country ever does any better. i still have gotten screwed personally in many ways and am watching those around me get screwed just the same if not worse. do you know what it feels like to have to make a choice to either go to school or eat for the day? until you do, you probably shouldn't talk. i'm saying this because i've seen both sides of the fence. my father is a super conservative Bush supporter. to this day he holds that Bush was a great president. i followed that same path until we met this economic crunch and realized things about this country that were quite sad that opened my eyes.

as george carlin said "rights aren't rights if someone can take em away. They're priveledges"

thats what i mean you take them for granted, you think of free speech as a basic right but in countries you can get killed for expressing the wrong opinion, and your overlooking all the infustructure, technology just because youve been screwed over? everyones been screwed over its not reserved just for you. you keep saying america has put other countrys down, its not good but it gives you an advantag wether you like it or not so why are you picking an argument anyway

??? you countrys done alot for you, and youve payed it back in taxes but it has done alotttttt

countries don't do shit for you countries defend their status quo ohh and PATRIOTISM is a menace to liberty itself as Emma Goldman said and in the western world the country doesn't give you shit you take it that's why 40 years ago i couldn't drink at the same fountain whit a white person in America while the Constitution said something they did the opposite some time ago people died in Chicago in the Haymarket massacre for the basic 8 hours of work per day note in our entire HUMAN HISTORY countries never gave shit to people the people themselves took them countries and governments in general are made to defend the status quo not to give you your rights ohh and i forgot in 1991 the South African apartheid government was destroyed by a popular movement by the will of people that asked for black peoples rights so the country didn't do shit until the people rose up i can give you 100000 examples of such things even in the USA the American Civil War was a popular revolt they did create a government to defend their rights that they THE PEOPLE created but we see that it didn't really work

and one thing more i put humanity over patriotism i am not proud of my country i am in somewhat way proud of my human race i don't subdue to primitive concepts like patriotism because race , ethnicity and all that crap are social constructs

i provide it for myself they don't provide it to me wink and those countries that don't let people to provide for themselves are in such way because of my country in capitalism the country doesn't give you shit you work for it we don't live in China or the former Soviet Union so the countries can't take care of us or give us shit in fact the major argument used by the west is that individuality in the western world is this in the west we provide for ourselves

it's called Public DOMAIN the roads , education and water are made by popular demand and my roads were bombed by your country my water supply was destroyed by your country my schools were bombed by your country my people tries to built it back but your country doesn't allow it so what is that ?? why i can't advance because of your country ?? why thank a country that supplies a road for me but destroys another ?? and it doesn't destroy it for me it destroys it because he wants to have the only road so in reality my country does nothing but keep me in a prison and gives me just one road to walk too think about it man wink

projects from the PUBLIC DOMAIN are made from the national budget you pay for the streets you pay for the water everything is done by the public's money and from peoples need this entity that you call the state does nothing the people does it and pays for it
