Fucked
Nation
We are a delusional people. We are
sheep with delusions of wolfhood. From birth we are sold a
pack of lies. “Ours is the greatest country on Earth,”
we are told. “We are the freest people in all the world, the
most enlightened, the strongest, the best educated, the most
advanced, blah, blah, blah.” As children we are told that we
invented everything, did everything first, have the best of this and
that, and that we can grow up to be anything we dream of. We are
told that this is the land of the free, the land of the brave, and
the land of opportunity. We believe that this is our land, that we
the people rule this land, and that we are all equal before the laws
of a just system. We think we are a people not divided by class. We
think that we alone have the right God, the best political system,
and the most intelligent founding fathers. We believe we live the
longest, are the smartest, have the best health-care and educational
system. We believe that we go to war only to defend, never to
conquer and that the world is full of hostile people just waiting to
destroy us. The truth, however, is something all together different.
We are none of these things.
We are like the skunk that sniffs
between its hind legs and takes the oder for perfume. We are like
the Mongols who stormed the world of old, raping an pillaging along
the way, only we are less honorable than they. We are the most
repressed, imprisoned, controlled, spied-upon, exploited, uneducated,
unhealthy, and enslaved people upon the Earth, for we have
surrendered not only our bodies, but our minds as well, to the
wretched machine we call the United States of America. No nation, in
the history of the world, more deserves to be smashed asunder than
this, our fucked nation, our fake democracy, our joke of a land that
professes the highest ideals while butchering the world and itself.
To be proud of being an American is to be proud of being a loser so
stupid he thinks he's a winner. Our nation is the embodiment of all
that is evil in the world and it should be torn to pieces.
Our moron masses spend their evenings
glued to the television set, minds harnessed to a false reality
whipped into existence by the mega-rich whose very existence requires
our enslavement. We are a nation of zombies waiting for the flag to
wave, ready and willing to destroy ourselves, our families, and our
neighbors in the name of loyalty to something that does not really
exist. While assholes like Murdoch, through his puppets (e.g. Bill
O'Reilly) lie us into genocide and mass murder we think ourselves
virtuous by supporting our sons and daughters whom we send to murder
whole families abroad. I ask you, would you cheer on a rapist for
the single reason that he is yours? Why then do you cheer on an army
of rapists and murders?
Every four years you march to the polls
and vote for one of the two scumbags presented to you for the office
of President. You decide between these candidates based either on
your loyalty to a party that knifes you in the back when you are not
looking or to a candidate who will tell you whatever he or she must
to win your vote, only to later run rampage over your rights to
ingratiate the highest bidder. You do this because you are a fucking
loser that has surrendered his or her mind to a class of sociopaths
that rule your world. Shame on you! If you weren't such a lazy
waste of skin, you'd do what is hard and think for yourself,
whereupon, having found the truth, you would take action to liberate
yourself and those you love. But you won't do these things. No,
you'll turn on the television and swallow the vile delusions.
You are offended? You think I'm lying
to you. “Ah, he's just an America hater,” you think! Am
I? Have I done anything to harm America? Have I done anything to
betray America? No, I have not. Unlike “our” President,
I have not violated the Constitution. Unlike our President and
Congress, I have not sent Americans off to die and murder for
profits, oil, and power. I haven't lied to you. I haven't taxed
you. I am not your enemy. Your heroes are your enemies.
Your enemies wear suits and sit in
large corner offices at your place of work. Your enemies stand
before your churches or temples and preach apologies for the
government, for your boss, for your murderous generals and soldiers.
Your enemies sign your paycheck each week, if you are lucky enough to
have a tyrant to serve. Your enemies insure your cars, your homes,
your life, and your health. Your enemies lend you money to purchase
your homes, or cars, or wardrobe or the stacks of consumer products
in your homes. You think these people are wonderful. You suck up to
them. You jump when they say “jump!” You make sure not
to offend them so that they can exploit you, rob you, lie to you, and
ruin you.
You equate freedom with your bosses'
right to underpay you, bully you, harass you, mentally torture you,
and fire you. You think freedom is all about the right of a handful
of social parasites to become wealthy at your expense. You think
freedom is about the right of your doctor to extort your life to
render you health care. You think bravery is playing football for a
professional team and that virtue is being famous for giving blow
jobs to a movie producer for an opportunity to be projected upon the
screen.
Your view of justice is a wealthy and
well connected man lording his contempt for your freedom from a chair
above the court. You believe in a system which disproportionately
jails men of color. You believe in a system where prosecutors
manufacture evidence, torture the accused, lie on record, and resort
to any and all trickeries to be sure that an innocent man is
executed. You accept the execution of a person who burns a federal
building while the rapist gets a suspended sentence. Violating the a
building is a worse crime in your best of all systems than violating
a flesh and blood human being.
You accept the torture of arbitrarily
held Muslim men who have been charged with no crime. You support
troops that rape and murder children, women, and their families. You
support genocide because Fox News calls it justice.
How, with all of this, can you lift
your head and be proud of being an American? You should bow your
head in shame and prepare for the eventual dissolution of your nation
because you have not earned the right to stand up and be counted
amongst the moral of our world. You are nothing more than the sheep
you have chosen to be, so stop beating your chest for the world would
be laughing at you if it were not crying instead.
