<<Max: What I find REALLY SCARY is not so much the fact that Bush, Cheney, and the neo-cons are the most vicious of war criminals, but the fact that a large portion of the US elite supports them either because of or despite this fact.>>

That fact is why the essay asking is the U.S. becoming officially a psycopathic society? is aprofoundly relevant question, and one few have the courage to confront. Are we, as a people, evolving into an apathic/selfish socoety capable of any cruelty to other people. Is the failure of the elite to respond not a symptom/warning that we are indeed falling into being an endemically evil nation????? Is not the overall apathy of the U.S. public a sign we are a morally degenerating society, where the death and horror our nation brings to other peoples does NOT matter to them because they simply are evolving into something cold and cruel?? Is not APATHY not a sign at times of death of soul?"
In the "Invasion of the BodySnatchers--1955" there is that powerful scene where a dog is hit by a car in the street with much foot traffic, it cries out in pain, the people do NOT react and just walk on!! How many americans really didn't give a damn what happened to asians , how many really don't care what has happened to the Iraqis?? How many think like the miserably tiny souled whiny creep liberal Tom Friedman?? It is all the Iraqis fault, they deserve this, that racist, evil BS the Tom Friedman promulgates; how many think like that in the country?? That is a scary question, no?:( ******************************************************** The majority it seems are becoming like " the apathetic Germans" as Nazism arose. Those Germans have been condemned by history, why am i not going to condemn the majority of citizens of the country i happen to be born in?? What can be said for a society that when Anna Nicole Smith was found dead That FOX News and CNN NEWS dropped EVERYTHING to give relentless fulltime coverage of such sordid papparrazzi hollow-based, nothing story. i will say boldly that of all the peole that died the day Anna Nicole Smith died, 95% were better people than she ever was. Why does Fox and CNN rush to cover this trash?? RATIINGS that is why. So what does that say about much of our public that rushes to CNN and FOX News to watch this crap???? I ask:Am i wrong that i believe i am now living in the beginnings of a Dark Age???? Max |
