Recently someone posted a diary about hopelessness and posted links from other diary's one of which was mine.
And at the time I want to write this but didn't because some small part of me still held out hope, that maybe, just maybe there was still a small chance that things wouldn't go utterly to hell.
Then I read this

And welp... That's it.
I fucking give up.
You know those videos with George Carlin were he goes into detail about the owners of this country and how they're gonna get "Their" money back and basically take every little thing we have left till we're have nothing at all.
And that other bit where he goes into detail about america circling the drain.
Well he's right. He's right, this country is fucked and honestly fuck it. I hate this country. I hate it, I hate that fucking narcissistic american exceptionalism bullshit. I hate that shining city on the hill, that lying american dream crap. It's all fucking bullshit. It was never true.
I realize now the more I learn about this country's history, you know the part they don't put in the history books, the stuff about all the shit we've done, I finally realize just how utterly full of shit america is. We're nothing but a cancerous toxic blight upon this world and humanity.
I finally realize exactly why we are so utterly despised and hated in the rest of the world and we deserve it.
We talk about how much we love democracy, and yet instigate coups and overthrow democracy's because heaven forbid a foreign government not bend over backwards to accommodate our needs.
We talk about how much we love freedom yet our government keeps trying to push forward shit like SOPA and CISPA and all kinds of other firewalls. And we talk shit about China and here we're taking pages from them! And let's not get into the whole "Free to harass other people our nation has always just loved throughout it's entire existence.
We talk about how much we love equality yet we're still seriously having debates about gay marriage and women's rights.
I mean if you want to perfectly encapsulate the character of this country, then Carlin's quote of "We were founded by slave owners who wanted to be free." Then that summarizes it just perfectly. We are a nation built upon hypocrisy.
I mean we were talking shit about Putin for his anti-gay laws while several of our own states were putting into law anti-gays laws as well! I mean how utterly insane can you get?
I don't even care if anyone agrees with me, I'll rant about this because at this point it's all I have left anymore now.
