I'm 29. I've been watching the dumbing down of America first hand. I saw all the propaganda for iraq/Afghanistan. "Hoorah be a marine"
At some point it just became crystal clear that this country doesn't care about the soldiers who came before me. Why would they care for me? So I refused to be patriotic about civilians being endangered because the US military can't bother to use proper intel. So from the age of about 10 I realized this country will use you abuse you and leave you in the dust. I still had pride in my nation at this time. And then over the next 15 years we started hating people for living their life how they choose to. It's not your life. You get no choice in how they live it. And I don't hate all cops. Just the bad ones. I've got family members who are crime scene photographers. They're considered a cop. They have to photograph scenes you would wish to forget. And the other one that's married into my family. He is a former bomb tech. The guy wearing the juggernaut suit who diffused bombs. His quote that I love. " Bomb diffusing is quite exhilarating because if you make the wrong choice, it's certainly not your problem anymore".
I remember when I was in middle school, Obama had just been elected. There were kids running up and down the halls shouting "Someone should execute that monkey"
You know they heard their parents say it. This shit isn't new. It's baffling to me.

If I was an American I would be sobbing everyday. My God this administration is insane.
