Thread: I hope this is an appropriate first post.

Well, to start it off simply, the entire World has gone to hell, and is currently roasting medium well in a nice little corner so remote that barely anyone realizes it.
Now I know that hell on Earth is a difficult concept to understand for most people, but really, if you can’t see what the hell is wrong with the world then get the fuck off my planet. Honestly.
If you’ve opened a newspaper recently, you’ve obviously been swamped with the most disturbing, openly balls out retarded articles you’ve ever read. This isn’t an isolated thing. This is the entire world falling apart, and no one has the balls to do anything about it.

Well. My first point is the whole equal rights argument. NOT ALL PEOPLE ARE EQUAL. Some people just shouldn’t be given rights. Anarchists for example, should be treated more suspect than the average person. Those who actively work to undermine the government should be treated as terrorists, and charged as such.
And criminals, oh my god do not get me started on criminals. These low lives do NOT deserve equal rights as I do.
Me > A Child Molester. It should be recognized in the court of law that I, who have no previous offenses and nothing seriously wrong with me (Tourettes aside) should get more leniency and more of a chance to escape conviction for a minor offense than a pedophile would. This isn’t true. It sickens me. A common thief should have more pride than the people who regulate our justice system.

The UN is a failure. This is why I am a self proclaimed Revanchist. I can list so many times that the UN has failed at doing its job in the last 20 years that it would make Santa Clause cry himself into a drunken stupor. North Korea’s nuclear program. Russia illegally selling weapons across the globe. Iran going Nuclear. The US invading Iraq (I’m a proud American patriot and I will be the first to admit that our country SCREWED UP with that whole mess. We managed to turn a stable (well…relatively stable anyway) shithole into a complete blunderfuck in about 5 years. No other nation has ever managed that in the history of the world in that frame of time, except for Japan during WWII, again courtesy of the US.) Which we spent the next 30 years rebuilding might I add!

More than that, the UN is a good idea, but it was executed horribly. I say we need to completely rewrite the entire thing from the ground up regarding international conflict. The peacekeeping aspect of the UN fails miserably, almost as bad as America did in electing Dubya as president. We had a goddamn monkey working the white house for EIGHT. FUCKING. YEARS. Am I the only person who sees the irony in that? Everyone hates him and he gets elected twice.

Abortion. Do people honestly think that they have a right to tell a woman what she can and can’t do with her body? These are usually the same people who want to proudly march us into the tenth century. I’m not exaggerating when I say that half of these people are complete nut jobs who masturbate FURIOUSLY to all things right winged while loading their rifles and waving their American flags on the warpath to the nearest liberals house. God forbid gays should ever have equal rights, for fear that they will actively seek to destroy America next, and from there the entire world!

Now don’t get me wrong, I do not by any means dislike conservatives, hell, I have quite a few conservative tendencies myself. I think the whole liberal vs conservative thing is the most retarded thing to happen since the movie Superbad. When it comes to the Right to Bear Arms, I can safely say that I take the "Molon Labe" stance on this issue. Our constitution DECLARES us the right to have guns, and anyone who thinks gun control is a good idea is WILLFULLY IGNORANT of the standing statistics and should be SHOT, just for the ironic enjoyment of the rest of us.

People judge each other for the smallest things, and I know that occasionally you CAN tell a man by the kind of porn he watches (no I’m not serious. Well. Kinda.) you can’t tell everything about somebody.
Poor analogy, but it stands.

That’s one of the major flaws with American society as I see it, we focus too much on labeling and categorizing each other. In the eyes of an overconservative, if you support gay rights or abortion you’re a hippie liberal commie who needs to be shot for ruining this country. In the eyes of an overliberal, if you DON’T support gay rights or abortion you’re a stingy, old fashioned bigoted bastard who is ruining this country.

THIS. FUCKING. SUCKS.

I, as a 17 year old, seem to have more wisdom then anyone in the Goddamn country that identifies themselves as either Republican or Democrat. The United States is a great country. It’s an eagle, flying high overhead, just out of reach of everything below it.

The liberals, or the “left wing” think that this eagle will fly better without its right wing altogether.

The conservatives, or “right wing” think that this eagle would fly better without its left wing altogether.

Has anyone ever seen what happens to an eagle when it tries to fly with only one wing? For our more conservative or liberal listeners, I’ll give you a few minutes to think that over, I know it’s a little hard to understand. Don’t worry, I’ll wait.

I am not advocating bringing down this country stone by stone and building it back up.
I AM advocating bringing down the obsolete, out of date, and useless trends in this country stone by stone and using what we already have to work with to put it back, but better.

The problem with this, however, is that it requires hard work, effort, and money from the politicians pockets. This is a terrible sin to anyone who has ever held office or a position of power, and as such, will most likely never happen.

Now, I for one want to help this country get out of the rut that it is currently in, and move forward into a life that would be better for everyone! America as a superpower can only be a good thing, and as we are, that’s slipping away.

This country isn’t BAD per say, its just in a bad place. And yes, there are those who could argue that its not even in a bad place, and hell I’ll give them credit and say they could argue it successfully. At the same time, even those who are most extreme in their arguments against the “bad place” theory for America could not argue that we are not in a GOOD place.

Lets compromise for a second, and agree that we are not in a GOOD place, but not neccesarily in a BAD place.

That leaves us with the middle path. Average. Plain.

I submit, is it a life worth living in if everything is steeped in mediocrity?
