With school turning out more runners, jumpers, racers, tinkerers, grabbers, snatchers, fliers, and swimmers instead of examiners, critics, knowers, and imaginative creators, the word 'intellectual,' of course, became the swear word it deserved to be. You always dread the unfamiliar. We must all be alike. Not everyone born free and equal, as the Constitution says, but everyone made equal. Each man the image of every other; then all are happy, for there are no mountains to make them cower, to judge themselves against.
If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of non-combustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy."
The truth is, I'm disgusted by some of the opinions of my generations. A lot of the time, the
'why' can only be answered by regurgatated fact, some pre-recorded, all encompassing response.
I hate the war. I hate Bush. The economy is in recession, my daddy is poor and he can't buy me $400 jeans anymore. There is an end result that my generation sees, but no justification. The common young adult or teenager can tell you how much a movie star's purse may be worth, where it was made, and how they got it. The common young adult or teenager cannot, however, tell you the first thing about politics.
It's a matter of opinion, many would say. That politics are only important to me, or some people. That it's none of their concern. Americans have been saying this for years, maybe it's why I find it ironic that almost every young person I talk to claims to be Republican or Democrat and yet 68% of them do not even vote. Americans, that is. ..>..>
They argue like blind mice, defend opinions poorly, sheepishly, and with boring regard. They live in their sugar coated, dollar priced fantasy world, oblivious to most of the machinations around them. Many find those like me to be muckrakers. Sad then, they understand so little.
Ask for knowledge, don't listen when it's given. Ask for sources, don't dispute their reliability. Assume someone knows more than you, but get offended when they know it as well. Politicall correctness, appeasement, getting along, these are the bonds that shackle us. We're expected to agree to disagree, but not entirely, disagreement is dangerous, it disrupts the harmony, the melting pot, the pro quo. It's nothing short of disgusting, it makes my stomach turn in it's uniformity of thought. One language, one consciousness, one hive mind to control all decision and thought.
We praise the masses, we appease the majority. The same majority that victimizes the minority. I'm tired of the NAACP, PETA, and California. California is a state of whores, hookers called politicians looking for cheap work. They scream for diversity, uniformity, fairness. This is a lie, they want nothing but anarchy.
I doubt many of you have read the book 1984. There is a quote in the book, "War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength." America is believed to be founded on the principles of Peace, Freedom, and Strength.
Peace through war. We attack war as wrong, when in fact it's only through the dangerous minds of a few men and the war they forged us from that we are granted our freedom. Freedom needs to come from somewhere, freedom is the absence of slavery, it is the epitome of Americana. Expression, thought, religion, no limits! This is freedom! And this is our power, our strength, our desire to endure. Failure isn't an option to be considered, we are not a country that can fail. This makes us strong.
Ignorance is strength indeed. We're ignorant enough to ignore our own mortality. Ignorance is bliss, oru happiness forged out of cheap novelties, trinkets, and things we do not need. Condemn violence, condem war? To do this is to condem human nature itself!
Give me a faster method towards peace, and I'll endorse it. Give me a better protection for our freedom, and I'll support it. Give me an alternative, and I'll consider it. I've considered the equation, I've thought about the problem. There isn't a better alternative. To say otherwise, you only lie to yourself, you only kid the unimformed. I have little time for either.

I have the answer for you. Socks. Stop Laughing. They comfort, they warm. And they feel so good wrapped around your feet, how could you think of war when your feet feel all cozy. I think Bush needs better socks. Who would start such an abomitable war when your feet feel good? No one I say! So my advice to you today. Go buy a pair of socks, something warm and fuzzy like me and walk up to someone you dont know and give them a pair. It will bring smiles and could quite possibly end all things bad in this great wide world.
