Politics - The Breakdown

[Ms Ann Thrope]

and THAT'S how our system works, folks!

Well Inky gets points for the history lesson but Gonz and Hoon get points for a straight forward no bullshit lesson in policy.

 

[Gonz]

I loved what Inky wrote but the term "prolateriat" has a magical effect on almost all humans. They see that word & magically lose interest.

Independent-wimp who won't take a stand

Independent--unwilling to let other people decide what my political beliefs shoul be.

Independent--the sweatshirts that say "independent" on them lose their meaning when half the people in school are wearing them.

 

[Gonz]

Independent--unwilling to let other people decide what my political beliefs should be.

I fit rather comfortably under that banner. I've also noticed, as Inky pointed out, it has become meaningless. Those unwilling or unable to make a stand use it like a crutch & those who understand it tend to fall under another more closely.

Actually, I'm registered democrat so that I might vote in the primary (republican would do as well). I generally end up voting for someone who isn't going to win because the front-runners are generally assholes.

Independent--the sweatshirts that say "independent" on them lose their meaning when half the people in school are wearing them.

I don't know, Inky. Independence does not imply uniqueness. I never did understand (even when I was one) the penchant for teenagers and young adults to do whatever is trendy to proclaim that "uniqueness," though.

 

[Hoon]

Another lesson in politics..
No one likes to be labeled what they are.

It's like people w/ curley hair want straight hair and vise versa.

I'm a raging conservative.
There I said it and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

 

[Thulsa Doom]

Good job! the first step is always admitting it.
