Me either...it's nuts.
“I’ve never understood the mindset”
This problem is all over the boards today. The best way to look at it is that any time a country allows criminal violence and destruction and calls it a celebration, the only phrase that comes to mind is that the inmates are in charge of the asylum. It’s kind of like kissing at new years, saying “bless you” after someone sneezes, and the one I hate, someone saying “thank you for your service” when it is obvious they don’t give a $hit. Lousy things like this just became popular because it is seen all the time in news or social media so they do it, right or wrong.
Humans have been led around by media for so long that they trust everything they say, do, or “lead” you to believe. And they lie like a rug. But it’s on TV, it must be right. And everything on the web is true, isn’t it? Ask some pre-teen kids about sites and they will swear by them. Some literally.
We’ve really lost our intelligence as a whole. And half the cause of its spread is the media. The other half belongs to people that allow it to happen in their homes with their families being used like doormats. And we let the educated(?) raise our kids into this robot status. Welcome to socialism. It’s alive and living in your home. Chase it out! (If you can.
