Happy 9/11 Eve

Of Thee I Sing

 

There’s no such thing as an innocent victim in America. It’s right there in the fine print of your social contract.

Now notice I am using the phrase ’in theory’ in the next sentence, so don’t get your big, Liberterian hemp panties in a bunch. In theory, America is a democracy. ‘Of the people for the people, by the people’, remember that load of crap people like to say in the hopes that repeating it often enough it will become true one day?

If you want that to be truly true, then America is you. Everything is your responsibility. Every car wreck, every suicide, every abortion, every abused child, every wrongly convicted inmate, every Rodney King beating, every bridge to no where, every Wall Street bailout, every Sha La La La, every Woo Oh Oh Oh, every civilian casualty, every war crime, every embargo that keeps medicine from brown babies ½ a world away is on you.

Everything is your fault and responsibility.

Not only that, everything is every other american’s fault and responsibility too. We are our country and government. If it is truly more than some feel-good platitude, then we have to take the good with the bad. If you really want to believe it’s the greatest nation because we the people control it, then you have to come to terms with the fact that the shittest thing done in and by our great country is the responsibility of each and every one of us.

You can’t just feel smug about sending a man to the moon, bringing down Hitler, and leading the fight against disease, poverty and injustice without admitting culpability for the Trail of Tears, nuking Japan, killing Randy Weaver’s wife and the tons of disgusting shit the FBI/CIA/NSA and military have done on our behalf that we will never know about.

So quit looking so sad and in disbelief when retribution for all that shit arrives. It’s pretty god damn disgusting and disingenuous. There can’t be any innocent victims in a country supposedly run for and by the people.

No one gives a fourth of a cum covered turd what you think, but please don't let that stop you from spreading your insightful wit to the world by commenting below. Or fuck, you're such a pussy-eating faggot you're probably interested in the rss feed of this shitty site. Oy vey.

World hunger isn't anything we should expend effort over. It's a problem that solves itself--like jaywalking or AIDS.
