You mean to say the average person is a dumb, blind lowest common denominator and the society we live in is unpleasantly corporatist, valuing nothing beyond profit? Odin's beard! I'm in shock.

And I disagree that somehow "the bad guys" are more generic. Perhaps you're just no longer seeing everything in black and white and allowing the enemy to just be an airhead instead of some monumental thing of evil for you to hate.

Bullshit.  Nixon WAS a monumental thing of evil.  So, to a lesser extent, was Reagan.

What we have now?  Pfffft.  Claudius.  Only this, and nothing more.

I agree with TLU, but I might also add that with time the position of power may have shifted and that guy who we think is the head is no longer the real threat. The enemies are his superiors *edited due to wrong wording*. Duh-duh-duh! :eek:

HAR HAR HAR!

WRONG AGAIN.

The president is owned by his contributors.

His contributors are corporations (Halliburton, etc).

The corporations are owned by the shareholders.

The shareholders are mostly mutual funds, etc.

The mutual funds are owned by the people that use them for retirement plans.

That's Joe 6 Pack.  You and me.

Has met the enemy, and he is us.

We always knew the political system was a setup.  But old bad guys like Nixon at least had the decency to throw their own evil into the mix or magnify their superiors' evil.  This guy we have now is so transparent they had to take all the makeup talent out of Hollywood just to keep his corpse looking animated on teevee.

This is why my rant was mostly about the People, not the president.

Which TLU chose to ignore.

This loop's a damn theme these days. It almost seems like it's between Opt Out, or Choose Your Own Adventure? Either way they come to an End. ...?

We are the problem.  No one gives a shit about their own personal freedom.  Most of us are content to allow the government to tell us what is ok and what is not ok.  I hate those bastards for that.

Freedom should never be taken for granted.  When you give yours away, you give mine.  Fuck you.

Is it an open loop or a closed loop? If its a closed loop, then we are totally fucked because someone already closed the loop and it didn't work.

If its an open loop, however...then we just have to figure out how to close it. And once we do, its like one of those block towers where you take one block out at just the right place.
One by one, we break the sheep from their Iron Bar Prisons and expand their imaginations, make them think for themselves. In turn, they break more from their prisons. Eventually, critical mass is reached. Our key word: Resolve. Evangelize with compassion and determination. And realize that there will be few in the beginning. We are hand picking our successors. They are the future of Discordianism. Let us guide our future with intelligence.
