52. exactly which parts were way off base?
the media would push all the bs down all of our throats if people didnt want to watch it. people care about paris and britney, instead of the war and politics. people would rather watch tv than read a book. people will play a mmorpg than go outside, the biggest and freest mmorpg. were not even smarter than 4th graders anymore.

primates fed an american-style diet, one of saturated fat and high glycemic carbs have diseases they do not get in the wild. mcdonalds isnt even food but so many eat it.

capitalism requires at its essence for some to have more than others, and it teaches greed is good. the savings rate is actually negative, which is unheard of.

even though it is specifically written we are not a christain nation by jefferson(tripoli 1792) people claim it is and berate you for disagreeing. these same people pick and and choose from a book, written by a man, what suits them and at what time.

people steal elections.

if you give a caged animal enough toys to play with, eventually it forgets its a caged animal. me



really freedom requires intelligence
if a nation expects to be both ignorant and free ,it expects what never was and never will be. jefferson

i would hope, as a zen student that the mass would WAKE UP: to the nature of reality and the cause of suffering.
