I wish I could say, 'hoora' to the meme, but I realize it always takes 'two to Tango'; meaning the average mullet, idiot, sheeple, and any other descriptive word, is also responsible in many ways as being complicit there with. The banks give us printed IOU's with the inscription 'In God We Trust'; it's the average idiot that ends up worshiping that IOU on their own accord, and without manipulation... The banks then use this 'idolatry' by acting almost like a priestcraft, and telling the sheeple, 'your god wants xyz from you'... They gleefully jump; usually screaming patriotic crap.

Some people build the fire.

Some people start the fire.

Other people love to sit back and watch it all burn. Preferably with popcorn.

Build. Destroy. Watch. Repeat.

Make sure you're not the one being burnt and you'll do okay.

Yeah. It sucks. The world is a big place and sometimes the only choice is to walk away.

Knowing when to walk away is an even bigger problem.

Ask china. Your Love4China Score too low? Can't leave.

Then thousands of chinese are surprised when they can't leave. Like, lol, wtf you expect? You were told months in advanced that this Patriotism Score was going to be implemented, and you knew it would fuck you over, and you stayed anyway?

If you see smoke: run. Don't walk.

The fight doesn't start when swat kicks in your door. The fight ends when they kick in the door. People forget sometimes that 9 times outa 10, by the time you choose to fight, the fight is already over.

There's no shame in walking away.
