you probably should share most of its values and customs. Respect them.

All governments are corrupt mafias. Some more than others. None deserve respect, especially when they demand it.

it really isn't that hard to follow social norms.

Currently there's a class war on and they're trying to depopulate the planet. Their social norms will kill millions.

Stalin killed 40 million Russians.

Mao killed 100 million Chinese.

First, no. Secondly I said you should respect the values and customs.

Values and customs don't come from guverments OR from "elites".

They come from influencers, though you are correct, not entirely. This includes the ruling class, their puppets, and their propaganda/media.

No, they don't come from influencers. THEY COME FROM PREVIOUS GENERATIONS. Sometimes I wonder whether you are a closet commie, just dumb, or LARPing dumb, or truly that misguided and misinformed, or what. Jesus.

They come from many places. Influencers, previous generations, common sense, superstition, pragmatism, etc etc etc.

Sometimes I wonder

Gimme a fucking break. Just because everyone doesn't think like you doesn't mean we're all commies. Sometimes I think you're brain damaged.

I am. Too much mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic and aluminum. I might be severely impaired but I'm still way above average. So don't worry about my brain. The cancer is mostly gone now, so I can focus on the metals. I'll probably stop posting when my brain starts working right again. Fuckdammit I made 2-3 typos typing this. Do you realize how insulting and aggravating that is to me? No. You have no idea. But I make do.

I won't argue with that. Sorry for your troubles.

I live to edit.
