It appears as if the whole world is conspiring to make me feel smart. And the crazy thing is, this doesn't seem like a good thing to me. I'd actually prefer if someone, you know, in a position of power was playing the role of having a clue.
Just which clue has so emboldened you?
Oh, you know, real tough ones, like: if you attack people, they tend to get pissed off and attack you back.
Alex was the first one I heard point out this obvious misunderstanding where after 9/11 all the American rhetoric consisted of "this attack has only served to make us stronger and more resolved" but then in the same breath we propose to attack them thinking this will somehow break their resolve. Huh? Didn't we just decide that suffering attacks strengthens resolve? Or is that just for us? (Just for white people? Just for Christians?)
WTF?
(Yeah, I'm catching up on a bunch of news from this week, and it's making me really mad.)
Don't catch up. Flat earthists unite. & don't ever try to convince a titled employee of a major media whorehouse that there might be forces conspiring...it's just one big clear channel to total cog diss.
