So simple.

Wrong, n. == The United States of America did it.
Wrong, v.t. == What the United States does to people.
Wrong, v.i. == What the United States does.

Nice to deal in such simplicity, isn't it?

Well, it does seem to save YOU the trouble of reasoning.

Or is there any facts that I've presented that you can refute?

I didn't think so.

We were wining and dining members of the "evil" Taliban in Texax in 1997.

We knew how they treated their people.

We just didn't care.

As long as we're getting what we want.

Of course, >YOU< can refute me.

Just present ANY bit of evidence that >YOU< were opposed to the Taliban in 1997.

Yet you're celebrating TODAY that they've been defeated.

And you're claiming that the people in the red neck bars are important.

Dude, in 1997, you didn't even KNOW who/what/where the Taliban was.

Hell, you didn't even know right up until September, 2001.

Then you're all too eager to believe that they are some terrible threat to the US.

You're a prime example of why those idiots in the red neck bars do NOT matter. You'll believe whatever propaganda is fed to you.

You won't even THINK about the history or ANY of our previous dealings with them.

You exist only in the moment.

That does tend to yield a specific type of moral certainty.

Nothing we've done to them or supported them in in the PAST has any meaning.

The US exists in a closed bubble of non-effect.

Things just sort of happen to us.

Because the people who do the bad things are bad people.

So, explain to me why, when a bunch of SAUDI fanatics hijack planes and crash them into the WTC at the command of a SAUDI millionaire are we bombing a bunch of AFGHAN civilians?

At which point your filters start to kick in and NONE of that makes any sense to you. It's simply to alien for your mode of "thought".

So you retreat into a non-fact space.

Anyone who disagrees with you >MUST< think that anything the US does is "wrong".

There, that's all sorted out. Now you can shut your brain down and start voting Republican again.

Don't think about the scary stuff. Don't think that in another 43 years (I'll still be alive), nuclear weapon technology will be 100 years old. It will still, somehow, someway, be too difficult for any terrorist to make one. Somehow. Despite the trend in EVERY other technology.

It just won't happen so we don't have to think about it.

Make the scary lunatic shut up, mommy.
