    Americans seem to think they are due some sort of fair and equitable civil society without having to fight for it. Actual evil will win anyway unless you fight the evil people and take a stand, constantly-- not occasionally when its only relevant to you. The problem is that americans are too spoiled and are lazy with their politics and morals. They just lay there like baby birds waiting to be fed, so the evils take advantage of that lethargy and here we are.

      I’m a Euro and I am constantly pissed at American politics. And it’s blearing in our ears all day.

      I couldn’t tell you who is the mayor of London, but everyone knows who the mayor of NYC is.
