The information is staring you right in the face. Read the purple boxes and the bolded parts. I find it hard to believe that people can still say this means nothing when the information is right there.

People are afraid. People are afraid to look at the truth. People don't want to know that their government has lied to them and that hundreds of thousands have died in vein. No, people would rather be oblivious to the world around them and watch TV for 10 hours a day and eating potato chips.

People think that what happened in the past can never happen again. Nero Hitler, Pearl Harbor, USS Liberty. Time and time again governments manipulate people to rally around a cause to further geopolitical goals. But it's can't happen now. We're smarter. We're more informed. I say bullshit to that. People don't care enough to break free of the mainstream and actually ask some questions. Most of us rather live in our fairy tale life and forget about everything else.

If you choose to look past the many facts out there, fine. But I cannot.

This has nothing to do with left right either. I hold many right wing values, and many left wing values. It goes far beyond the left right spectrum. Until people realize this, your country will continue to be divided, and the real issues at hand will never be resolved. You know...together we stand, divided we fall.
